Nancy Pelosi and Democrat Leaders Mock the Bill of Rights & Constitution

Nancy Pelosi and Democrat Leaders Mock the Bill of Rights & ConstitutionLast Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives was proceeding with articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump. In proceeding with this charade, Pelosi made the statement that “The facts are uncontested. The President abused his power for his own personal political benefit at the expense of our national security by withholding military aid and a crucial Oval Office meeting in exchange for an announcement of an investigation into his political rival.” But in reality, the “facts” are not uncontested, and the suppression of facts in favor of rivals opinions are seemingly accepted “facts.”

partisan-driven “impeachment” that it reeks of self-interest, and self-centered motives -- not by Trump -- but by Pelosi and the criminal Democrat leaders at the core of the coup against our beloved Republic

Pelosi is right, however. There is so much wrong with this one-sided, partisan-driven “impeachment” that it reeks of self-interest, and self-centered motives -- not by Trump -- but by Pelosi and the criminal Democrat leaders at the core of the coup against our beloved Republic. Pelosi went on to seemingly ascend to higher moral ground: “If we allow a President to be above the law, we do so surely at the peril of our republic,” Pelosi continued, adding, “In America, no one is above the law.” By her own words, Pelosi and the criminals behind her charade and those allied with her, will be judged. Indeed, this is a truly historic step as reported by CNN and the rest of the mainstream media outlets that are complicit in the coup against the Republic. The MSM continues to present a partial picture of reality, and does not tolerate the indication of another reality, just as the Democrat point man for the “civil” coup d’état, Adam Schiff, would not permit specific GOP witnesses in the impeachment drama he was conducting in the House Intelligence Committee. In like manner, now that the Democrat-driven actions against President Donald Trump have shifted from Adam Schiff to Jerrold Nadler in the House Judiciary Committee, the Democrats will not allow Schiff, Pelosi, or the Bidens to come forward and testify. One needs to see the pattern in order to deduce the corruption at the core. President Trump certainly has not been silent in all of this -- sometimes for good reason, but in some cases to his detriment. Yet, he tweeted last Thursday that Republicans in the Senate should call witnesses that Democrats have not allowed in the House, including House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff, former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden — and even Pelosi. When witnesses testify about what they know under oath, it is more likely that truth will be revealed. Trump tweeted: “We will have Schiff, the Bidens, Pelosi and many more testify, and will reveal, for the first time, how corrupt our system really is. I was elected to ‘Clean the Swamp,’ and that’s what I am doing!” Who is acting above the law? To paraphrase Pelosi: “If we allow any public political figure to be above the law, we do so surely at the peril of our Republic.

Nancy Pelosi and Democrat leadership mock the Bill of Rights by denying our president his rights in this process

It stands to reason that if criminals are at the core of the corruption, they would not want witnesses. Since when have “We the People” tolerated “guilty until proven innocent” in the United States? Since when is American justice a one-sided affair? In point of fact, the entire impeachment charade has denied President Trump his own civil rights. Where are the ACLU or the SPLC when they really need to demonstrate that they are more than just front groups for the American Left? Overt one-sidedness is overly obvious! Nancy Pelosi and Democrat leadership mock the Constitution with this charade they are calling an “impeachment.” This Sunday, December 15th, is Bill of Rights Day, and when anyone is denied their civil rights under the Constitution, it is a violation of the people’s Bill of Rights in the Constitution. Amendment six, regarding criminal prosecutions, states that the “accused” has the right “to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defence.” Nancy Pelosi and Democrat leadership mock the Bill of Rights by denying our president his rights in this process. They are likely not willing to be witnesses in the procedures by which they have initiated the appearance of an impeachment. When the rule of law is no longer the rule of law, agreed upon objectively (that means the absence of political bias) it signals the demise of the value attributed to the rule of law. And, once the trappings or the appearance of an “impeachment” are stripped away, this represents an attack upon the foundations of the Republic -- the Constitution of the United States.

Fair elections are seriously in danger

When “We the People” allow any public political figure to generate the appearance of a public “trial” operating in the guise of legitimacy according to the law, we truly do so at the peril of our Republic. Democrat leaders appeared to care about the appearance of Election 2016, except for their own primary. And if this is doubted, bring Bernie Sanders as a witness. In this regard, Donald Trump was right when he described the system as “rigged.” Fair elections are seriously in danger. If we examine Pelosi’s words once again: “The President abused his power for his own personal political benefit…” She is also correct because what former President Obama is now known to have done during the 2016 election is abuse his own power by spying on the Trump campaign. This is why Richard Nixon was threatened with impeachment at the heart of the Watergate scandal - for planting listening devices in the Democrat National Committee headquarters at the Watergate building. Leaders of the Democrat National Committee engaged in spying on candidate Donald Trump in 2016. The same leadership cabal appears to be making a case against Trump for what the Democrat politicians have been getting away with for quite some time. Of course, Pelosi might have been correct again when she said the reason why Bill Clinton was impeached was because he was stupid. But, what Pelosi and the Political Criminal Cabal at the heart of the “impeachment” charade are hoping to ignore is the U.S. Constitution. Professor Jonathan Turley, of George Washington University Law School provided his own appraisal of the current efforts of “impeachment” last week on December 4th. He is clearly not politically aligned as a Trump supporter as he admitted in his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee. He cautioned the House committee members against impeaching President Donald Trump with the limited amount of evidence they currently have at their disposal. He asked: “Will a slipshod impeachment make us less mad, or will it only give an invitation for the madness to follow in every future administration?” He added: “This is not how an American president should be impeached.”

This would be the first presidential impeachment to go forward with no credible (or at least uncontested) crime at its heart

Professor Jonathan Turley testified 21 years ago in the Clinton impeachment process, and it is truly advisable to read a copy of his opening statement to the House Judiciary Committee. Turley reasoned regarding the rule of law in this matter. In an article in the L.A. Times, posted Monday, December 9th, Professor Turley wrote:
Past presidential impeachments were… In all three previous cases--those of Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon--criminal acts had been clearly established and the facts surrounding them were widely accepted. This would be the first presidential impeachment to go forward with no credible (or at least uncontested) crime at its heart… This would not matter if the non-criminal acts were clear and uncontested. They are not. The most serious impeachable act raised by the Democrats is abuse of power, a legitimate basis for impeachment as I stated in both the Clinton and Trump impeachment hearings. But in inexplicably rushing to an impeachment vote, the House is foregoing the subpoenaing of key witnesses who could shed light on potential abuse of power…

When a political majority in Congress abuse their power in such a way, this at its worst is a politically motivated coup d’état, and at its best it is a sham public “show trial” with MSM collusion to poison the hearts of the people against the POTUS

It is far more clear that the House Democrats are the ones abusing their power, and in abandonment of the jobs they were entrusted with when elected. When the members of the House of Representatives, controlled by a majority intent on conducting a Kangaroo Court, can sidetrack “business as usual” in Congress, it undermines the Separation of Powers because it enables an unwarranted attack upon another branch of government. This “impeachment” charade is not about “high crimes and misdemeanors,” which is why the founders even decided to embed it in the Constitution as a way of removing someone abusing power of office. This is about seizing power illegally, but appearing to do so by legitimate means. When a political majority in Congress abuse their power in such a way, this at its worst is a politically motivated coup d’état, and at its best it is a sham public “show trial” with MSM collusion to poison the hearts of the people against the POTUS. Either way, it represents the destruction of the intent of the Founders with regard to impeachment. It represents an affront to the intelligence of the American people. And, it is a dangerous precedent to allow, for if this “impeachment” charade proceeds according to the plans of the Political Criminal Cabal at its heart, it can undermine the intent of the Founders with regard to the Law of the Land - the Constitution as it stands. As Bill of Rights Day approaches, Americans truly need to look past the smokescreen of a thinly veiled legitimacy of the “impeachment” and carefully crafted MSM propaganda narratives. The American citizens need to honestly consider what matters most. If the Republic does not matter - it is no longer worth keeping, then the proverbial handwriting is on the wall. If the Republic is worth keeping, it is indeed time for citizens to rededicate themselves “to preserve, protect, and defend” the Bill of Rights of these United States.
