Four takeaways from today House Judiciary Committee impeachment hearing by realchriswilson

The impeachment inquiry into President Trump resumed following the Thanksgiving recess and moved venues to the House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y. Four constitutional lawyers joined the hearing as expert witnesses, although much of the eight-hour hearing was taken up by monologues by various legislators using their five-minute allotments to maximize their television exposure.“If what we’re talking about is not impeachable, then nothing is impeachable.

“If we cannot impeach a president who uses his power for personal advantage, we no longer live in a democracy,” Feldman said. “We live in a monarchy or a dictatorship.” “Close enough is not good enough”The lone dissenter about the validity of impeachment among the four witnesses was George Washington law professor Jonathan Turley, who was called by Republicans to testify. While Turley was barely addressed during the Democrats’ opening 45 minutes of questioning, Republicans allotted all of their time to him.

Turley, who noted that he had voted for Obama and for Hillary Clinton in 2016, also criticized Democrats for rushing the impeachment process. Some of the witnesses who were closest to the events under discussion, including White House Acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney and former National Security Adviser John Bolton — have declined, on the advice of the White House, to testify.

In describing her preparation for the hearing, Karlan noted that she had spent her Thanksgiving holiday reading the testimony of previous impeachment witnesses. The names of the president’s children are known to the public. Karlan didn’t reference Barron in any other way. Her remark, though, drew condemnation from Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla. and First Lady Melania Trump, who tweeted, “A minor child deserves privacy and should be kept out of politics. Pamela Karlan, you should be ashamed of your very angry and obviously biased public pandering, and using a child to do it.
