If @rgoodlaw sees no strong argument against my proposal to impeach but then withhold the Articles of Impeachment, there are unlikely to be any. — PolitiTweet.org

This @repblumenauer approach of impeaching but withholding the Articles from the Senate makes great sense. But I’m not objective: I’ve been advocating it from the start. — PolitiTweet.org
Earl Blumenauer @repblumenauer
This week, we should impeach Trump but NOT send the articles over to #MoscowMitch and the Senate.

With Trump, there’s a dumpster fire a day. If we only fight those fires, we will lose. There’s strength in being FOR something.

Growing support for the idea of impeaching today but withholding the articles from the Senate until a meaningful trial can be conducted: https://t.co/dk41hKpYDg — PolitiTweet.org

My hunch is that lots of people who’ve persuaded themselves that Trump’s conduct is acceptable haven’t focused on how they’d feel if the most powerful man on earth asked a foreign government to announce falsely that it was investigating them for crimes they never committed. — PolitiTweet.org

You may’ve missed the import of @SpeakerPelosi’s magnificent statement that the two Impeachment Articles do more than merely refer charges for Senate trial. They state as “established fact” this president’s “high Crimes and Misdemeanors” in abusing power and obstructing Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

Senate rules requiring the House to “immediately” present its articles of impeachment to the Senate clearly violate the constitutional clause in Article I giving each house the sole power to make its own rules. It’s up to the House when and how to prosecute its case in the Senate — PolitiTweet.org

Who is to blame for the absence of even one Republican in the House endorsing either Article of Impeachment and thus the lack of bipartisan support for this outcome? Not the Democrats, for sure. — PolitiTweet.org

As @ElissaSlotkin just asked, if it’s OK for Trump to seek foreign attack on a US citizen to help him win in 2020, what’s to stop a future president — a Democratic president — from encouraging China’s or Russia’s cyberattack on America to undermine our democracy in the future? — PolitiTweet.org

The White House Dear Mr.President: Sir, someone with a sick sense of humor has stolen your White House stationery to write a letter to the Speaker that you will surely want to disavow on this historic day. Yours truly, Laurence H. Tribe https://t.co/lxI4PHsxzS — PolitiTweet.org

Everyone who prays should be outraged that @realDonaldTrump wrote that @SpeakerPelosi was lying when she said she prays for him daily. Not satisfied to be above the law, he now dares to judge people’s souls. Pelosi’s faith dwarfs Trump’s heresy any day of the week. 🙏🏼 — PolitiTweet.org

When the history of the last two centuries is written, Ukraine will be front and center. See @TimothyDSnyder’s Road to Unfreedom. Actually, it has played a big role ever since 1783, when Russia annexed it, c/o Count Potemkin’s diplomatic maneuvering. https://t.co/9hqAeG2fCF — PolitiTweet.org

.@RepRaskin is right: Donald Trump is guilty of a constitutional crime in progress. All of us are his victims. Tomorrow he’ll stand impeached, the third president ever to bear that dishonor. And with only a fake “trial” in the Senate, he will become the first never to be cleared. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ChrisVanHollen should join my effort to have the House vote to impeach tomorrow, then tell Trump & McConnell they must agree to a real trial, with witnesses by both sides, if Trump is to have any shot at exoneration; till then, he’s guilty per the House verdict on Dec 18. — PolitiTweet.org

.@JakeSherman told @KatyTurNBC withholding the Articles till McConnell caves makes no sense because McConnell would be glad to have no trial at all. That ignores the elephant 🐘 in the room: TRUMP. He NEEDS a trial to give him the acquittal he craves. As of Wednesday he’s GUILTY — PolitiTweet.org
