'You're going to impeach a president for asking for a favor that didn't happen and—and giving money and it wasn't withheld?' Haley told CBS News anchor Norah O'Donnell, in an interview airing this weekend.

—in which she had been quoted in defense of President Donald Trump and against calls for his impeachment.

Following Haley's initial tweet, Legend hit back at the remark."It's not the death penalty," he responded."It's firing him from the most important job in the country because he can't be trusted with it. Real people are actually sentenced to death. This is not that." Technologist and writer Tom Coates, known for being a pioneering force in the early days of weblogging, joined the thread early Saturday morning.

No. Whether to impeach is the decision of the House and whether to remove is the decision of the Senate. Both entities filled with the duly elected representatives of the American people."It's also clearly not like the death penalty for an elected official *because they don't die, they simply lose their jobs.* Comparing it to the death penalty is an extraordinary and insulting thing to say," Coates continued.

What does she care? She now sits on the Boeing Board and so,while she removed herself from that chaotic administration,but she's settled into more of the same. Poor judgement, but big payday!

He didn’t blast her, he ignorant and uneducated. He doesn’t understand what an analogy is.

🙄

Who gives a shit what this guy Thinks or Speaks.

One thing at a time...

A singer.

Good. Everyone knows it was a stupid remark.

Says a woman (Nikki Haley) that said 'when I saw something wrong, I called it out.” When a president puts his interest above the interest of his country, that is flat out wrong. Trump placed his interest above America and its citizens, AND, that deserves a penalty.

Who is John Legend?

John Legend should stfu about things he's clueless about.

Impressive! And, quite accurate.

Nikki got that one wrong, but she's angling for a job in the Pence administration.

Nobody cares

John is a delusional garbage libs that love to see America besieged by dem satanic policy which they see as diversity.America is GOD's own country before barrack hussein obama came in and disorganized every single thing that related to GOD.

And he is absolutely correct to do so.

It is an outrage!!! I am horrified!!! My feelings have been attacked, Nikki Haley's comments are violence against me!!! She and Trump are Nazis!!!! Impeach!!!! - Doing my best to fit in to the current culture, hopefully I conveyed the proper level of horror and outrage.

John...who? Who?

who? oh, another stage puppet thinking their god. Great!

WTF does this guy know about government?

John Legend and Kelly Clarkson Reworked 'Baby, It's Cold Outside' but Baby, They Shouldn’t HaveCOME ON, MAN, IT’S A NO: John Legend ft. Kelly Clarkson, “Baby It’s Cold Outside” —The “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” culture war has started early this year and John Legend and Kelly Clarkson have presented us with the first entry: an updated version that considers the notion of consent, which is the thing that people start flapping their jaws about every year, usually around Thanksgiving. If I pretend the lyrics are not changed to reflect consent, then this is fine. John Legend has a good voice and so does Kelly Clarkson. Would love to hear them sing anything other than this song, so if that’s in the works, please let me know. To be clear—I am not against consent, but I am solidly against the reworking of this old chestnut, which is not, as many seem to believe, the only song about Christmas or the holiday spirit or winter. Thank you. —Megan Reynolds
