Dershowitz: Supreme Court Just Destroyed 2nd Article of Impeachment
|
[BREITBART] Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz pointed out on Friday that the Supreme Court had undercut the Democrats’ second article of impeachment by agreeing to hear three White House appeals against subpoenas.
The second article of impeachment passed by the House Judiciary Committee earlier Friday on a party-line vote accuses President Donald Trump
...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons......
of "obstruction of Congress" because he appealed to the courts rather than immediately obeying congressional subpoenas.
George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley had warned Democrats not to impeach the president for obeying the Constitution: "If you impeach a president, if you make a ’high crime and misdemeanor’ out of going to the courts, it is an abuse of power. It’s your abuse of power. You’re doing precisely what you’re criticizing the president for doing. We have a third branch that deals with conflicts of the other two branches."
But the House Judiciary Committee ignored Turley’s warning, passing two articles of impeachment. The first accused Trump of "abuse of power" ‐ a new standard never before used against a president ‐ and "obstruction of Congress."
Appearing on Hannity on Fox News that evening, Dershowitz pointed out that the Supreme Court’s decision later the same day completely undermined the second article of impeachment.
