Republican lawmaker denounces Trump’s tweet predicting ‘civil war’ if he’s impeached

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/r...impeached-2019-09-29?siteid=yhoof2&yptr=yahoo

Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger blasted President Donald Trump on Sunday night after the president quoted a Fox News contributor who warned of possible civil war if he is impeached.

The Illinois congressman, who is an Iraq War veteran, was the highest-profile Republican to criticize Trump, who Sunday night tweeted a quote by Pastor Robert Jeffress earlier in the day on Fox News: “If the Democrats are successful in removing the President from office (which they will never be), it will cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation from which our Country will never heal.”

Trump's 'Civil War' Tweet May Be Grounds For Impeachment: Harvard Law Professor

The president posted tweets Sunday quoting pastor Robert Jeffress, who said the nation would suffer “a Civil War-like fracture" if Trump were removed from office.

The tweet was condemned by many Democratic politicians as well as Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, who said it was “beyond repugnant.”

It could also be grounds for impeachment, according to Harvard Law professor John Coates, who responded to the president’s tweet with a little bit of constitutional law.

I believe that this not only could warrant Trump’s impeachment but that it could be done without plunging the country into “civil war” or guaranteeing Trump’s re-election — provided Democrats keep stressing four things.

First, this charge against Trump began with an independent whistle-blower — an intelligence officer, aided by other insiders. Sure, it could turn out that he was a Hillary Clinton fan, which Trump would use to rile up his base, claiming that Democrats were trying to steal his election mandate. But if this turns out to be what it appears — a nonpolitical C.I.A. analyst and other civil servants motivated by their oath to uphold the Constitution in the face of a president who was violating his oath — then Trump and the Republicans will have a problem.

Democrats in Congress need to make sure they say and do nothing that gets in the middle of this framing of the story, which, for now, appears to be accurate: nonpolitical civil servants inside the government acting on conscience against a law-breaking president acting on political greed and excess.

House Democrats on Friday demanded that Vice President Mike Pence turn over documents related to President Donald Trump’s call with the Ukrainian president at the heart of their rapidly unfolding impeachment probe.
The request for documents was made in a letter sent to the vice president and provided a deadline of Oct. 15. It was signed by the chairmen of the committees on Foreign Affairs, Intelligence and Oversight.

The letter follows a report published in The Washington Post on Tuesday that revealed that Pence’s national security advisor was on the July 25 call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that sparked the impeachment inquiry.

Trump urged Zelensky on the call to investigate his 2020 rival Joe Biden, the former vice president. On Thursday, CNN reported that Pence was provided a transcript of the phone call the day after it took place. A source told CNN that Pence “may or may have not read it.”

Matt Drudge, an influential figure in conservative media, sours on Trump as he faces impeachment

https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/09/media/matt-drudge-trump-impeachment/index.html

New York (CNN Business)President Donald Trump, facing an ever-deepening scandal that threatens to swallow his presidency, appears to have lost a key ally in conservative media: The Drudge Report.

The narrative-setting news aggregation website, founded in 1995 by Matt Drudge, has spotlighted an overwhelming amount of negative news for the Trump White House in the last several weeks. It's marked a major shift from how the outlet had previously covered the President.
"He's reacting to changing circumstances," a person close to the media mogul, who said Drudge had grown exasperated with Trump, told CNN Business.

Washington (CNN)Fiona Hill, President Donald Trump's former top Russia adviser, is testifying Monday before House committees investigating Trump's communications with Ukraine, where she will be asked to provide information related to her former boss' conduct.

Hill, who was subpoenaed by the House Intelligence, Foreign Affairs and Oversight committees for closed door depositions, is among the handful of current and former Trump administration members being interviewed this week by House panels as part of the Democrat-led impeachment inquiry into Trump's July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and its resulting fallout.

According to a source close with Hill who spoke to her last week, she is planning to testify that she was unaware of some aspects of the escalating Ukraine scandal, which may complicate the objectives of Democrats, who are hoping she can build a picture of efforts to influence the Ukrainian government by outside Trump confidants, including Rudy Giuliani, the President's personal attorney.

What Is the Emoluments Clause?

https://www.britannica.com/story/what-is-the-emoluments-clause

The plain purpose of the foreign emoluments clause was to ensure that the country’s leaders would not be improperly influenced, even unconsciously, through gift giving, then a common and generally corrupt practice among European rulers and diplomats. An early version of the clause, modeled on a rule adopted by the Dutch Republic in 1651 that forbade its foreign ministers from receiving “any presents, directly or indirectly, in any manner or way whatever,” was incorporated into the Articles of Confederation (1781) as Article VI, Paragraph I: Nor shall any person holding any office of profit or trust under the United States, or any of them, accept any present, emolument, office or title of any kind whatever from any King, Prince or foreign State; nor shall the United States in Congress assembled, or any of them, grant any title of nobility.

All but the prohibition of titles of nobility was dropped from the initial draft of the Constitution but eventually restored at the request of Charles Pinckney, who argued at the Constitutional Convention for “the necessity of preserving foreign Ministers & other officers of the U.S. independent of foreign influence.” The final text of the clause included a provision that permitted acceptance of foreign gifts with the explicit approval of Congress, perhaps reflecting the awkward experience of Benjamin Franklin, who as American minister to France had been presented with a bejeweled snuff box by Louis XVI and, not wishing to offend the king, asked Congress for permission to keep it (permission was granted).

President Donald Trump’s past comments about corruption are turned against him in a GOP organization’s new TV ad.

The commercial, released online Thursday by Republicans for the Rule of Law in response to the controversial announcement that the next G-7 summit will be held at the president’s Miami golf resort, begins with footage of Trump attacking his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton during the 2016 campaign.

It then cuts to examples of the ways Trump appears to have personally profited from his time in the White House.

'Phony.' Donald Trump mocks 'emoluments' clause of U.S. Constitution that bans foreign gifts

President Donald Trump slams Constitution's “phony” Emoulments clause barring federal office holders from accepting gifts from foreign governments.

'Phony.' Donald Trump mocks 'emoluments' clause of U.S. Constitution that bans foreign gifts

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump rejected suggestions Monday that hosting the G-7 summit of world leaders at his resort in Doral, Florida, would have run afoul of the U.S. Constitution.

Speaking to reporters in the White House Cabinet Room, Trump dismissed as “phony” a section of the Constitution that bars federal office holders from accepting gifts from foreign governments.

“You people with this phony Emoluments Clause,” he said.

Trumps remarks came as he was chiding Democrats for pushing back against his decision to host the G-7 at his Doral resort.

Democrats and some Republicans, as well as government watchdogs, decried the administration's decision to award the event to one of the president's properties. Under pressure, Trump announced Saturday on Twitter that he was reversing his decision to host the summit at Doral, suggesting Camp David could serve as an alternative site.

Republicans disrupt closed-door impeachment deposition

https://www.yahoo.com/news/pentagon-official-testifies-ukraine-impeachment-143912900.html

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans have disrupted a closed-door deposition with a Defense Department official who was scheduled to answer questions as part of the House impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.

Laura Cooper, a senior official who oversees Ukraine policy, arrived Wednesday morning on Capitol Hill to appear before the House panels conducting the investigation. Shortly afterward, more than two dozen Republican House members held a news conference outside the secure room in the Capitol where the deposition was taking place.

The Republicans decried that the deposition was happening behind closed doors and said Americans should be able to read the transcripts of any interviews being conducted as part of impeachment.

Nunes Aide Is Leaking the Ukraine Whistleblower’s Name, Sources Say .
:nono2:


https://www.yahoo.com/news/nunes-aide-leaking-ukraine-whistleblower-000123329.html .
:crazy:


A top aide to Rep. Devin Nunes has been providing conservative politicians and journalists with information—and misinformation—about the anonymous whistleblower who triggered the biggest crisis of Donald Trump’s presidency, two knowledgeable sources tell The Daily Beast.

Derek Harvey, who works for Nunes, the ranking Republican on the House intelligence committee, has provided notes for House Republicans identifying the whistleblower’s name ahead of the high-profile depositions of Trump administration appointees and civil servants in the impeachment inquiry. The purpose of the notes, one source said, is to get the whistleblower’s name into the record of the proceedings, which committee chairman Adam Schiff has pledged to eventually release. In other words: it’s an attempt to out the anonymous official who helped trigger the impeachment inquiry.

On Saturday, The Washington Post reported that GOP lawmakers and staffers have “repeatedly” used a name purporting to be the whistleblower during the depositions. The paper named Harvey as driving lines of questioning Democrats saw as attempting to determine the political loyalties of witnesses before the inquiry. A former official told the Post that Harvey “was passing notes [to GOP lawmakers] the entire time” ex-NSC Russia staffer Fiona Hill testified.
 
Pelosi gives Republicans what they wanted, and Trump may not thank her .
:clap:


https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/29/politics/nancy-pelosi-vote-on-impeachment/index.html

(CNN)President Donald Trump and his Republican defenders may come to regret that Nancy Pelosi gave them what they wished for.

Putting the House on the record for the first time on impeachment, through the speaker's call for a vote by the whole chamber on procedures, is a highly symbolic step that will challenge the entire Republican critique of the impeachment process.

More crucially, such a vote could make it more difficult for the GOP to dodge the substance of the Ukraine scandal and the issue on which impeachment will turn: Did Trump abuse his power?

Superficially, the House speaker's call for the vote is a reversal and vindicates GOP critics who have blasted her inquiry. But it threatens to begin eroding the central pillar of Trump's defense so far: that the investigation is nothing but an unconstitutional sham that is depriving him of due process.
Republicans are already framing new process arguments, and even top Democrats argue that Pelosi did not give the GOP everything it wanted: Thursday's vote will merely lay out the next steps in the inquiry and is not a formal authorization of an impeachment probe. But the distinction is likely to be lost on the public.
