Senate Impeachment Trial: Schumer Pushes Back on Republican Calls for Trial After House Impeaches Homeland Security Secretary Al...
Senate leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) responded to criticism by Senator Ted Cruz (R-T.X.) over the weekend on his refusal to hold an impeachment trial against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas following a successful House vote to impeach.
Hmmm....surprise, surprise.
"I got to tell you, with the Mayorkas impeachment, you know what Schumer wants to do? He doesn’t even want to have a trial,” Cruz said on Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures.” “He doesn’t even want to have senators vote on guilty or not guilty. What he’s trying to do is simply table it, just put it aside.”
“In over 200 years of our nation’s history, the Senate has never once tabled articles of impeachment. That has never happened. Every single time, the Senate has voted, has voted on either guilt or innocence, or the House has withdrawn the impeachment,” he continued.'
Schumer: Rules? We don’t have no stupid rules! Rules are for Republicans.
No kidding. Rules for thee....
no man is above the law! but democrats are not men, so does not apply to them.
Does Chuck have dual citizenship w/Israel? Asking for a fren.
Many of them do. I wouldn't be surprised. Either they have dual citizenship or they have Iranian ancestry....what does that tell you?
