Elizabeth Warren in New Hampshire: impeachment ‘not a matter of politics’. Really.
[BOSTONHERALD] U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Being Native American has been part of my story since the day I was born Warren
...Dem Senatrix from Massachussetts, who traces her noble lineage all the way back to Big Chief Spouting Bull. It has been alleged that she speaks with forked tongue but she denies that. She had a DNA test to prove her lineage and it turns out she's colorless...
says impeachment proceedings against President Trump are "not a matter of politics" but of constitutional responsibility ‐ applauding the House for finally launching an inquiry while hedging on its likelihood of success in the Senate.

"This is not a matter of politics. It is a matter of constitutional responsibility," Warren said in the opening of her campaign speech in Keene, N.H., Wednesday afternoon. "Nobody is above the law, not even the president of the United States."

Warren was the first major presidential candidate to call for Trump’s impeachment, doing so in April after the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report on the Russia probe.

Five months later, she was praising the House for finally taking action after a whistleblower report said Trump urged Ukraine’s leader this summer to investigate rival and former Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Failed seeker of the Democratic presidential nomination on multiple occasions, vice president under Barack Obama, giving it a last try in his dotage for 2020...
and his son over Biden’s alleged effort to thwart an investigation of an energy company Hunter Biden was associated with.

"I’m glad to see that the House has stepped up," Warren said. "I hope we do it quickly, we can do an investigation here and get this done."

Warren later told news hounds, "I don’t know what the Senate will do under (Majority Leader) Mitch McConnell, but right now, we have to do what is right regardless of the politics."

#2 This is clearly an inside job to get Biden out of the way.

The DNC know that he's toast. They also know there's nothing to their latest BS about Russ Ukraine

#3 I would appear that Fauxcahontas is the New Hillary, the DNC and the rest of the Dem leadership's Anointed One for 2020.

#4 Seems like the Dems won't be satisfied until a hard left female is elected.


Of course, they won't be satisfied then either.

#6 This is clearly an inside job to get Biden out of the way.

Agreed - definitely the DNC's style; that means a few weeks after the smoke signals clear, Bernie's next on the chopping block. It'll be fun watching the Bernie bros blow gaskets over that one, then the rest of them (Harris, ButtiBoy, etc.) will eventually get the message - you're next.

#7 Chi bono?

Warren gets to eliminate her rival for the nomination.

Sanders gets to resurrect Hillary's corruption and use of Ukrainian tools in 2016.

Pelosi gets to posture and preen to her left wing jacobins about impeachment with no risk that it will go anyhere.

The Deep State including NYT-WP-CNN gets yet another carnival of lies and disinformation involving Boris Badenov, poisoning our precious bodily fluids and grooming Agent Orange to help Russia hurt Russia help Ukraine hurt Ukraine did I say Russia I meant Ukraine ...

#8 RCP polls now show the beginning of Biden's collapse in support. Warren is the beneficiary.

Gap between Biden & Warren is now down to only 6 points in the RCP average:

#10 Seems I've read a few dems saying the impeachment was "not a matter of politics". They sound more than a little defensive.

#12 "not a matter of politics"

When we say "not a matter of politics", we mean it is a matter of spiteful bitchiness.

Also, WTF is an "impeachment inquiry"?
