A question about impeachment
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
I've been wondering why the impeachment inquiries and trials are being slow walked.
So I did a little digging and I wonder if there is anyone on this platform who know much more than I about impeachment.
What I found; in order to impeach someone they must be a Federal employee. A Federal employee must take an oath of office to be a Federal employee.
My take on all of this is that none of the people we want to see impeached can be impeached because they are not legal Federal employees.
And if they do go ahead and pretend they are impeaching someone it would be another act in this looooong movie we are watching.
Am I wrong? Or am I must hoping I am correct?
I recall about about 6 months ago there was huge news about a claim that a majority of Bidens administration .not signing Oath of Office
As far as I can tell, that traces back to this Ann Vandersteel twitter post --

But it looks sketchy -- all the people she names have literally been sworn in, with the Oath of Office, you can watch it on CSPAN.
Here's Xavier Becerra getting sworn in: https://www.c-span.org/video/?510308-1/health-human-services-secretary-swearing-ceremony
Here's Buttigieg: https://www.c-span.org/video/?508603-1/transportation-secretary-buttigieg-swearing-ceremony
Here's Blinken: https://www.c-span.org/video/?508379-1/swearing-ceremony-secretary-state-blinken
etc etc
There need to be a signed document. A legal Contract of the oath signed & files with a court.
You can verbally offer to purchase a house, but until you SIGN A CONTRACT, it's not binding.
Nah, if they are up there purely by optics, they can be impeached, purely by optics.
People forget the most important calculation with impeachment. Which is "what or who comes next?"
Kamala was never a viable presidential candidate, so she was put in there as a buffer to ensure no factions of Cabal was threatened. The real candidate was Pelosi, but she went down the drain, too bad.
I have explained the full calculus here in the McCarthy post.
Optics and timing are everything
If the optics or timing are wrong effect is lost.
Like a symphony they need to build a crescendo for maximum impact without getting something worse than they have now
And for us anything is worse than Biden.. he is the political gift that keeps giving.
Trust the plan
Even if Biden were impeached, the military or someone would have to step in immediately to stop Kamala from taking over. No one in the whole line of succession would probably be much better.
Maybe they're not ready to reveal all that yet.
Trump was impeached while out is office. Was he actually a federal employee at the second impeachment then?
My guess is, yes.
Yes because he is still the CIC and real POTUS
Please explain "none of the people we want to see impeached can be impeached because they are not legal Federal employees."
Yeah an FOIA was done and a majority of people in the Biden admin didn’t take their oath of office including cabinet officials
I think he or she is referring to the devolution theory, according to which Biden isn’t actually commander in chief.
Ah.
My answer is optics. They need to do it 'by the book' as the public understands it.
So if the Resident, who is the coup usurper, claims he is the US president, then a very public impeachment is obviously how it must be done. Anything else and it will be seen as a coup d'état. Especially in the environment of Dems screaming 'insurrection' at every Republican move. But hey, the Dems impeached Trump twice, and so should expect that Republicans will tread that well-worn path.
Even as most of those congressmen swore a supposed oath and nullified it immediately (see Brunson case), by allowing the real (Democrat/Pelosi crime syndicate) insurrection/coup to happen, flying in the face of evidence. [insert long list here]. Of course, the Democrats claim that no evidence even happened. So, an impeachment may bring up all sorts of pop-corn worthy moments.
The impeachment may appear to be slow-walked, but measured steps is how it must be done, so that the public does not chimp out. They need to see that it is all official.
Only Federal representatives who have taken the oath of office can be considered "LEGAL" and therefore unless they have been sworn in as a representative of our Federal government they cannot be impeached anymore than you can be impeached for whatever position you hold in a non-federal position.
"Per the Constitution, any civil federal officer may be impeached for "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors." This means representatives, cabinet members, and even Supreme Court justices may be impeached. The term "civil officer" has been interpreted to include all U.S. officers holding their appointments under the federal government, including executive and judicial officers, members of the House and Senate, and those in all levels of government."
You are definitely correct. I keep telling the hurry up and impeach crowd this very same thing lol
You're wrong. It's being slow-walked because they don't have the votes.
I say your correct plus they don't have replacements for all those fake federal employees. So they will wait until after elections then pull the trigger.
They are slow walking it because it "looks" like they are doing "something".
They KNOW he's a fraud they are KNOWINGLY allowing this farce to continue.
The pretend just saying "No" is "battle" they are engaged in.
Silly people think " we have the power, we will just vote them out if they send more money to "Ukraine".
Bullshit... They are just waiting for their $$ from the Ukrainian "aid", and will exit politics on their own, proud of their skills in deception.
You're watching a movie...
An illegitimate "pResident" should not be impeached - military tribunals are the only way.
If you watched the inauguration you would have noticed that Harris had her hand on her purse not on the Bible and Biden had his hand on the Bible but it was upside down. This sounds very reasonable. I believe no one actually took the oath of office
