Impeachment articles to be filed before Thanksgiving
... Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Illinois, told the Chicago Tribune the group is currently meeting with constitutional scholars to solidify the case against the Republican president. He did not specify what the charges against Trump would be.
"I assure you we will not leave you lacking for reason," Gutierrez said ...

The [D]s already tried this once... but they ran away before the house to take it to the floor. You seriously think they will do it again?

1. Already been done at least once. I know he is promising
a more coordinated effort this time, but I doubt it’ll go anywhere.
Like Pelosi and Schumer, I’ll wait for the Mueller report. Let’s get it right.

3. That is exactly what needs to happen, wait for te full Mueller report. Absolutely nothing will
result from this under republican control of House, but when the Mueller report is complete, that is when it becomes real if it is going to happen, because it will provide the evidence for impeachment.
The republican House investigation of the Russian links was a sham, the Mueller investigation is independent

6. Even though I of course believe there is more than enough reason to impeach this very
moment I think it should not be attempted at this time. This needs to play out. Mueller and his million dollar mean dream team ain't no slouches...they got this. Dem's should slow this roll.

13. Only because we need Pence solidly implicated too.
If nothing else, we need proof he chose NOT to know about certain things. If there's a pattern that can prove our VP knew hanky-panky of a more than sexual kind was happening and did nothing to stop it, that should be our first priority to identify.
If they'd just impeached Nixon, we'd have had Agnew. We need at the very least proof our modern-day Agnew is deliberately choosing to "see no evil" and to use the leverage from all of this to get someone who doesn't watch the Handmaid's Tale on Hulu for inspiration installed as VP first.

11. I now that I'm swimming against the current but its too soon.
This bullet can be fired only once. There is no reason to file an impeachment resolution in the House so long as it would have no chance.
I'm as eager as anyone to see Trump impeached but - please - give Mueller more time to flip more of the Trump minions. As fast as things are moving, the question for me is whether there is an impeachment vote before or after the 2018 election. If the Repugnants think Trump is going to be a drag on their reelection prospects, they will throw him over. Failing that, a Democratic controlled House can proceed after the 2018 election.
The correct order is Ready, Aim, Fire. We're still in the Ready phase.

14. Hold on Slick
There ain’t no double jeopardy on filing impeachment that I ever heard of. Impeach early, often and for all time, practice makes perfect.

16. Yes, thank you. I know that double jeopardy only applies to criminal cases.
I'm not talking about double jeopardy or any other legal restraint.
As a political matter, the public will not tolerate multiple attempts at impeachment. Impeachment is a grave matter that must be addressed gravely. If we mean it, we need to act like we mean it.
No prosecutor would file a criminal case until s/he knew the case could be proven. An impeachment is not a criminal case but it would be equally foolish to file articles of impeachment until the ducks are not all marching in a single column.
Ready - then - Aim - and only then - Fire.
Never gonna happen...

The false hope syndrome: unrealistic expectations
Abstract
People appear to behave paradoxically, by persisting in repeated self-change attempts despite previous failures. It is argued, though, that self-change attempts provide some initial rewards even when unsuccessful. Feelings of control and optimism often accompany the early stages of self-modification efforts. In addition, unrealistic expectations concerning the ease, speed, likely degree of change, and presumed benefits of changing may overwhelm the knowledge of one's prior failures. It is thus important to learn to distinguish between potentially feasible and impossible self-change goals in order to avoid overconfidence and false hopes leading to eventual failure and distress.

I can picture it now. :lmao: Melania holds up a picture of Luis Gutierrez, "Barron, this is what stupid looks like. Don't be stupid." :lmao:
Does Speaker Ryan have the cajones to call the Ds' bluff again?

This is what is called building a world of delusion and then moving in to live in it.

Luis Gutierrez is an outspoken ass hole of the smelliest kind. He is as annoying as anthony weiner was when he had a job. These do nothing dems are just grandstanding to try to impress their base that they are doing something, while ignoring all the important issues that concern the average citizen.
They will never learn :thatsright:

Yes indeed. Stop the press, prepare to reset the Headline of the Bulldog edition. This just in from reliable sources who wish to remain anonymous. MULLER has subpoenaed the White House Thanksgiving Menu. Russian Dressing has been found. This obvious collusion was meant to send a signal to Putin that all is well. Stay tuned. This is a developing story. :popcorn:
