No they don’t.
Doesn’t matter what evidence they have…Senate won’t convict and base won’t desert Trump.
They know it so well that Rudy Giuliani is admitting his machinations in public now and it STILL won’t matter.
The base thinks this is totally normal Presidential behavior…
Rudy Giuliani said removing the US ambassador to Ukraine was a key part of his effort to dig up dirt on Democrats on behalf of his client, President Donald Trump, according to a new interview with the President’s personal lawyer in The New Yorker.

They don’t need the courts. Robert’s could push them to and skip it all.
But they should hold off and let rudy run his mouth somemore
Oh look more tire Mark’s on the gop and they just ask for more
That’s it, the dem’s on the committee should immediately impeached and removed from office. Nobody is above the law!
Looks like the fight over Grand Jury testimony could be part of the next impeachment inquiry.

Speaking of recession, it seems Washington Compost had to put that on hold.
Another major failure that libs promoted.
I just cannot believe how often thy been wrong over the last 3 years…and funny thing about it they still don’t know they’re being played.

Recession indicators are lib lies now? Find me one lib that has said, unequivocally, that a recession was coming?

the institute for supply managments survey which shows the health of the manufacturing sector fell to 49.1 in august. Any reading below 50 is contraction. the reading for export orders fell to its lowest since april of 2009.
so much for trumps claim we have the best economy on record.
stocks have plunged as a result with the dow down 400
manufacturing jobs,especially in swing states have begun falling
so far this year 22 states have shown manufacturing job losses including wisconsin,north carolina and pennsylvania
one company cummins engines says tariffs will cost if 150 this year,far outdistancing the 70m it saved in corporate taxes
Some examples within those threads.
The warning signs are there.
Yes, but many signs point to a near future recession, within 1-2 years. You recognize that, right?
Troubling signs from yesterday:
" Long-term Treasury rates added to their monthlong slide Tuesday, aggravating a key yield curve inversion and sending the 10-year yield to its lowest level against the 2-year rate since 2007.
The yield on the benchmark 2-year Treasury note , more sensitive to changes in Federal Reserve policy, fell to 1.526%, 5 basis points above the 10-year note’s rate of 1.476% after closing inverted on Monday. Before August, the last inversion of this part of the yield curv…
And with about half of corporate CFO’s predicting a recession by the end of 2019, and about 80% of them by 2020.
I love this one.

he brags about how the economy is doing about as good if not better than ever before.
but…
gdp growth estimates for q2 have fallen to 1.5% or lower
may job growth only 75k,well under the 180k forecast.
march and april numbers also sharply reduced.
2 of the last 4 months have seen growth under 100k
treasury yields have plunged as the fear of recession is growing.
I’m sure I can find plenty more.

They should have listened to Turley.
I honestly don’t understand why they were in such a rush.
They ought to have let the subpoena cases play out in the courts.
A political calculation, to be sure. It is Schiff’s position that getting a decision through the courts could take months, even years. That the issues would be lost in voters minds in the meantime, and then the election is upon us.
Also, they felt that they had enough evidence to move now.
And, the fact that Trump has stonewalled perfectly good House subpoena’s provided a further article of impeachment.
Yeah he’s like the first President to ever claim executive privilege and take it to court.
So can I. A net gain of 54,000 mfg jobs in November.
Durable goods orders back on the rise after a slight drop in August and September as well.
New orders for US manufactured durable goods jumped 4.7% month-over-month in June 2023, the most since July 2020, following an upwardly revised 2% rise in May and easily beating market expectations of a 1% increase. It was the fourth straight month...
Unemployment at or near all time lows as well.
The unemployment rate has fluctuated greatly since 1929. Learn how GDP, inflation, economic events, and other policies have historically impacted unemployment.
Real wages growing at about a 5% average for the year as well.
Yes, let’s all get deeply concerned about the imaginary recession.
You posted a bunch of recession indicators that “libs” posted. Just because you have indicators, doesn’t mean a recession is coming.

Uh oh
Support even fell among Democrats, with 77 percent of Democrats now backing impeachment and removal compared to 90 percent in November.
Forty-five percent of Americans said in the CNN poll that they support impeaching and removing the president. That represents a 5-point decrease from a poll conducted in mid-November after the House Intelligence Committee finished its public hearings.
Schiff and Nadler blew it. Censure letter time.

I thought this was interesting and McConnell’s reasoning appears sound.
He also noted that Schumer had misquoted the Constitution. The Democrat leader had claimed the Constitution gave the Senate “sole Power of Impeachment,” whereas Article I, Section 3 actually states , “The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments.”
“We don’t create impeachments over here … we judge them,” he declared.
It was the House’s role to investigate, and to build a case. “If they fail, they fail! It’s not the Senate’s job to leap into the breach to search desperately for ways to get to guilty. That would hardly be impartial justice.”
The Senate would not, he said, participate in “new fact-finding” that House Democrats were “too impatient” to pursue.

Recession indicators are always worth concern. Politically motivated blindness to them is not something to be proud of.
highroller:
Well they can go through the courts if they think the president has been wronged, but impeachment is up to the house. He won’t go to jail for being impeached just removed with the senate’s trial.
Should he go to jail? I don’t this there is beyond reasonable doubt, so no.
He will leave after 5 more years.

You actually think he will be removed by the Senate for impeachment? What have you been smoking?
