'It's hopeless. It makes no sense at all,' the former Republican Speaker of the House said in an interview with Fox News.

The ex House Speaker pushed successfully for the then Republican controlled house to impeach Clinton back in 1998. While Republicans controlled the Senate as well at the time, a two thirds majority of Senators is required to remove a president from office after they are convicted by the House.

Currently, the House of Representatives is controlled by Democrats, although Democratic lawmakers are still divided over the issue of impeachment. Of the 235 Democrats in Congress, 137 havepursuing the president's impeachment. The Senate, however, is controlled by Republicans 53 to 45, with two independents who caucus with Democrats.

On Monday, Pelosi appeared to downplay this week's upcoming vote by the House Judiciary Committee. The speaker said that the investigation into Trump had already been going on for"a very long time."

Bill Clinton lied under oath in a grand jury deposition. That’s a crime. It is against the law to lie under oath in a grand jury deposition. Understand, Lefties? Or is that too complicated for you?

Hypocrites all

Newt who?

Newt Gingrich Thought he was dead....

Gingrich is a colossal hypocrite.

The radical leftwing extremists have talked about impeaching Trump even before he was inaugurated. What a bunch of low IQ clowns. Landslide in 2020. Keep America Great in 2024.

There is nothing partisan about investigating the interference of a hostile foreign government in our elections.

Because a blowjob was more damaging to the country then trumps lies and scams.

SmilePrettyLady Gingrich is another TraitorTrump-left wife1 when she was diagnosed with cancer. Gingrich is a SoullessSOB like trump whose god is money and only money.

Hypocrite!!!!

We will see. Impeach is the thing we should do

You gonna point out the Hypocyof the little fat man too?

Clinton committed perjury

Newt sit down

Russian hoax is a lot different than Bill having sex with Monica!

Newt impeached Clinton over a BJ. Glad to know a BJ hurts the country more than everything Trump is doing daily. shutupNewt

NewtGingrich is as appealing as a case of hemorrhoids I heard described. In a nursing home, an elderly female resident expelled a HUGH mass of hemorrhoids, when a female aide responded, the resident calmly said, “Honey, just shove ‘em back inside.” Gingrich never leaves,OMG, 🥴!

Irony is officially dead! Even after all the years, GOP hypocrisy never ceases to amaze me!

Newt Gingrich blasts 'irony' of Democrats' impeachment inquiry after his partisan process against Bill Clinton

Ao chelsays managed minions at news-weak go after Newt and GOP. Like BillClinton the sex-abuser in Cheif admited to more acts in sworn testimony before congress than BillCosby was convicted for... Bubbah also lied about it.

Democrats: We're not ready to impeachTrump yet despite a mountain of evidence. Republicans: OBAMA WORE A TAN SUIT!!!!

Well, he’s definitely somebody who’s familiar with absurdity...

Gingrich was ran out of Congress for being too big a crook, why does anybody listen to what he says about anything?

He's relevant because?

The last I checked, Trump isn’t banging interns in the Oval Office.

This guy wouldn't pay child support. He's done.

He has to smooch trump’s behind as wife number 3 has kush ambassadorship to largest child sexual abuse ring in world history

The only absurdity here is that god awful picture. The Clinton impeachment was a joke. This is absolutely necessary!

Plus ... here’s his buddy

Our mission at is to build the social media platform that ends fake news

Remind me, is the Republican threshold to be considered 'unfit' to serve as President of the United States still just lying about a blowjob?

Not despite.. BECAUSE he lead it. He shouldn't be giving good advice to the Left anyways. They'll ignore it and rage, DESPITE it.

GINGRICH WAS RUN OUT OF OFFICE IN DISGRACE FOR ETHICS VIOLATIONS

We know were his interests are..

nytimes this is how to write headlines thanks

Newt and Moscow Mitch. The heroes of the right.

newtgingrich the obscure name in politics.

... but that was the Repuglicans. Anything they do couldn't possibly be 'absurd'. Just look at them. /s

I can’t imagine why anyone cares what NewtGingrich says about anything. A disgraced Speaker of the House, an unfaithful husband to women he discarded when they needed him & he refused to support his children. What’s left to disgrace him.

Then what was the last 3 years and 50 million dollars for? Just because you don't like the results of the Muller report doesn't mean you get a do-over. StopDividingAmerica

Newt who? Wait didn't ge have a TV show a zillion years ago 😉

For the record, I was against impeaching Clinton too. So what if he liked getting his knob polished in the oval? The country did pretty good under him.

He gets his 5 min this way.

So nothing new with Newt then- they sure named him right low down slimy subterranean creature

Why is Gingrich worth quoting? What is his relevance?

Newt the Choad doesn’t get to open his mouth.
