WASHINGTON -- A "solemn day" or a "show trial"?
Here's what to know about the first hearing, with the charge d'affaires in Ukraine, William Taylor, and a career diplomat, George Kent, at the witness table:"The President, Vice-President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanours."
With only hours to go before the hearing, Republicans and Democrats from Congress to the campaign trail were spinning their points of view. "I discovered a weird combination of encouraging, confusing and ultimately alarming circumstances," Taylor testified in an Oct. 22 statement. He is a West Point graduate and Vietnam War veteran who has served under every presidential administration, Republican and Democrat, since 1985, and worked for then-Sen. Bill Bradley, D-N.J.
At its heart, the GOP argument is that the impeachment effort is unfair and sparked because "unelected and anonymous bureaucrats disagreed" with Trump's decisions on Ukraine.U.S. whistleblower laws exist to protect the identity and careers of people who bring forward accusations of wrongdoing by government officials. Lawmakers in both parties have historically backed those protections.
folks in the house have no idea the Schiff that will go down when Trump gets re-elected. 😂
It’s a sad day when 🇨🇦’s news stations have to report every minute of these proceedings that’s going on in US ,just wish Canada had impeachment laws , so TRudeau could be put on trial.
