Today, the DOJ Affirmed Impeachment THE REMEDY for Ignoring Subpoenas. Not the Onion!

SCHIFF: "While we've been debating whether POTUS can be impeached for bogus claims of privilege, the DOJ is resisting subpoenas in court today... the judge says 'if Congress can't enforce its subpoenas, what remedy is there,' & DOJ's response is impeachment! You can't make it up"




What the actual fuck?

They can argue all day about whether or not the Ukraine stuff was legal or illegal or impeachable or not, but the Obstruction piece is a much clearer argument, as the DOJ just confirmed.

They should submit that as a question to Justice Roberts today. He knows the answer, and Trump is clearly violating it.

Is that everyone in the senate was laughing.

It sure sounded like it was everyone.

No doubt dems and thugs were laughing for two different reasons though.
