Okay, so, even though the submission of the articles is not a Constitutional requirement.
HOWEVER. A formal impeachment would cease to exist without them.
As Breitbart reported:
“The framers built the Senate to provide stability,” McConnell says in his Senate floor remarks, according to excerpts released by his office. “To keep partisan passions from boiling over. Moments like this are why the United States Senate exists.”
In a news conference late Wednesday, Pelosi declined to say when she would send the articles to the Republican-led Senate. Until the articles are submitted, the Senate cannot hold the trial.
Honestly I’m happy this happened. It’s like the trash is taking itself out.
We can sit back and watch the Dems help lead each other to the quicksand. Kumbaya, idiots.
Breitbart also reported:
Pelosi said House Democrats could not name impeachment managers — House prosecutors who make the case for Trump’s conviction and removal from office — until they know more about how the Senate will conduct a trial.
“We cannot name managers until we see what the process is on the Senate side,” Pelosi said. “And I would hope that that will be soon. … So far we haven’t seen anything that looks fair to us. So hopefully it will be fair. And when we see what that is, we’ll send our managers.”
Gee, it sure would be a monstrosity if this unfair SHAMpeachment was followed up with an ‘unfair Senate trial.’
The concept of fairness is just a fluid concept to Pelosi, it’s pathetic.
