The public impeachment inquiry hearings have been a disaster for House democrats and nothing proves it more than this: the House is going back to the Russian collusion hoax to investigate if President Trump lied to special counsel Robert Mueller. This is also very clear evidence that democrats know they cannot beat Trump in 2020 and must find some reason, any reason, to impeach him. “Desperate” doesn’t even come close to describing the panic on the left at this point.
CNN got the honor of breaking the latest democratic party shame:
The House of Representatives is now investigating whether President Donald Trump lied to special counsel Robert Mueller in written answers he provided in the Russia investigation, the House’s general counsel said in federal court Monday.
“Did the President lie? Was the President not truthful in his responses to the Mueller investigation?” House general counsel Douglas Letter told the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit about why the House now needs access to grand jury material Mueller collected in his investigation.
What this is about, besides trying to overthrow the duly-elected President of the United States, is to find an actual crime in which to impeach Trump. With the Ukraine hoax, democrats have tried “quid pro quo” which isn’t a crime and then switched it to “bribery” which they cannot come close to proving. There are no crimes in the Ukraine clusterf*ck but perjury is a real crime that a president can be impeached over, so that’s what they are now going after.
Here’s democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin saying the quiet part out loud:
“It’s a crime to lie to federal prosecutors in the course of a federal proceeding. That’s perjury. It was also the basis for the GOP-controlled house’s impeachment of Bill Clinton for lying under oath, for committing perjury. So it’s a very serious offense – and it’s obviously something that we take seriously,” said Raskin.
Raskin was then asked if this re-investigation of Russian collusion is the democrats’ new focus in the impeachment inquiry.
“The president committing perjury in the process of the investigation would be another article under the obstruction of justice, or it could be — I mean, it could be another point under that, or it could be a separate article. None of that has been decided yet,” said Raskin.
That’s a “yes.” The democrats have nothing on the Ukraine front so they are re-invading Russia in hopes of finding a crime they missed the first time around.
Another pathetic reason for this re-investigation of the Mueller report is that democrats are trying to save their own asses. The Ukraine quid pro quo/bribery hoax is so week the House dems know they can’t even count on their own party to vote for impeachment. After months of proclaiming Trump’s guilt and putting on a giant shitshow (Schiff show), if they can’t at least get a House impeachment vote, they are done for. It guarantees not only a Trump reelection in 2020, but also a flip of the House back to Republican control.
