In contrast to Thursday’s contentious back and forth between the two parties, Friday’s session was devoid of rancor, or even any debate. Immediately after gaveling the session to order, Judiciary Committee chairman, Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., ordered two votes, one for each article. Both were approved on party line votes, 23-17
No surprises. Onto the full house.
Will be interesting to see who defects from the dems in the full house.
They could have done it last night but they wanted it to be seen by people.
What a joke. If it were truely for non political reasons, they would have held the vote last night instead of a sudden adjournment with the words we vote in the morning.
If the vote would have happened last night, some would have complained that Democrats did it “in the middle of the night so less people would see the sham”.
Looks like someone’s been triggered. I should definitely invest in Kleenex stock for the impending Impeachment. I predict lots of frothing, tears and whining next week. Should be interesting.
