Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Washington Post Columnist: The Democrat Case for Impeachment Is Kind of a Huge Joke, Isn't It?I was not expecting this from Jeff Bezos' Corporate Newsletter. Ed Morrissey sums up the glaring internal contradiction of the Democrats' "case:" That the "case" is simultaneously "overwhelming" and beyond disputation, and also, this is precisely why Republican Senators must help the House actually do the investigation and establish the case in the first place.And here we have the basic contradiction of the House Democrats’ case for more witnesses. If it's "overwhelming" as is, then there is no need for more witnesses. If it's "uncontested," which it most certainly is not, then there’s no need for a trial. Schiff likes to throw these words around as though uttering them out loud turns them from argument into fact, but that’s not how argument works, outside of court and especially inside of court. The problem for Schiff is that the House impeachment consists entirely of argument, and entirely lacks direct evidence and direct testimony. That is why Democrats are so desperate to get a handful of Senate Republicans to do the work that Schiff and Jerrold Nadler refused to do, simply because the timing didn’t suit their tastes.Harry Olsen rips Adam Schiff for pretending that he's a prosecutor. As he points out: Nothing you're doing is anything like the work of a prosecutor. The House's articles have been analogized to an indictment, but indictments can only be brought if they are sanctioned by a neutral, disinterested party. A prosecutor must persuade either a judge or a grand jury that there is probable cause a defendant committed a crime to initiate a case. No serious person can call the House Democratic caucus a neutral, disinterested party. Nor can a prosecutor obtain evidence under subpoena on their whim. Anyone with a subpoena to provide testimony or written evidence can challenge that in court, as many recipients of such subpoenas in investigations supervised by the office of former special counsel Robert S. Mueller III did. That is exactly what the president has tried to do in many instances with respect to subpoenas issued by committees controlled by House Democrats. But Schiff and his colleagues not only chose not to permit the judicial process to play out with respect to those subpoenas; they chose to call the president’s attempt to avail himself of his rights "obstruction of Congress" and an impeachable offense itself. How Orwellian. The list goes on. A defendant can file a motion to suppress any evidence obtained during an investigation that she believes was illegally obtained. That motion is heard by a disinterested party -- a federal judge -- and that judge's opinion can be appealed to an appellate court before the trial ever begins. Again, the House procedure denied the president that basic right by making the prosecutor, Schiff, the judge.Good article. I hope he didn't get himself Epsteined.

The latest meme I'm seeing on Twitter: The case is so good it's impossible to acquit; but, the Senate will almost certainly acquit; so, if Trump is reelected then he's invalid right out of the gate. It's almost as if they're setting the table for something nasty.

If you want to read something disturbing, check out the transcript of Hugh Hewitt interviewing Jonah Goldberg. Julie Kelly linked to it on twitter.
Hewitt is a peacetime conservative, bending over backwards to let Goldberg do his schtick and it's embarrassing. Goldberg is completely incoherent, hopping from one Dem talking point to another, contradicting himself multiple times in the process and coming across as a total lunatic.

Someone last night on the ONT mentioned that Schiff, whose thumb has married his asshole, was a former federal prosecutor. Sure enough, from wiki --
From 1987 to 1993, he was an Assistant United States Attorney in the Office of the United States Attorney for the Central District of California.[6] While in this position, Schiff came to public attention when he prosecuted the case against Richard Miller, a former FBI agent who was convicted of spying for the Soviet Union.[7] The first trial resulted in a hung jury; the second trial resulted in a conviction that was overturned on appeal.[8] Miller was convicted in a third trial.[9] Sounds like he was up to schnenigans even back then.

They forgot two things: 1. President Trump is an outsider and there is no political dirt to be had on President Trump. (The House Democrats really thought they could find something Mueller could not. How quaint that a bunch of incompetent losers think they could do better than the focused and sanctioned witch hunt of the Mueller group headed by people who are used to looking for dirt) 2. President Trump fights back, unlike the spineless GOPe.

Posted by: artisanal 'ette at January 23, 2020 05:24 PM (vEIlU) I forget. Which outlet was it that raised the trial balloon on Mueller being a nothingburger. It didn't matter. No matter how many times you point out to the true believers. It didn't matter. And then, when Mueller was a giant nothingburger, they lost their collective shit, again, predictably. So it will be with impeachment. We told/showed them there was no there there to Schiff's demented story time hour. We told/showed them there would never be 67 votes. We told/showed them there was a huge risk that this would blow up in their faces, take down bribem, and possibly many others. They wouldn't hear of it. Now they run around soothing their butthurt with cutesy little names like IMPOTUS, taunting that Trump won't be President forever. Well no shit. They deserve every bit of disappointment, mental anguish, anxiety, sleeplessness, insomnia, and lost hope that comes from a Trump acquittal.

OT Tabloid Trash Bwuahahaha Harry And Meghan Already Find Snag In Canadian Living, Take Legal Action Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle, duke and duchess of Sussex, have already stumbled upon a snag in Canadian living. The exiting royals issued a cease and desist letter to British media outlets threatening legal action following Meghan and baby Archie being photographed in a public park in Canada, TMZ reported Tuesday. In England, Harry and Meghan were protected from being photographed in public outside of official appearances, TMZ noted. "In England, strict privacy laws protect even the Royals from being photographed in public when they're not making official appearances." According to privacy law specialist David Elder, the couple could potentially bring a lawsuit forward under the under British Columbia's Privacy Act, the Times reported. However, Elder noted, "the legislation contains many exemptions intended for news media, as does Canada's constitution, and that Canadian courts have generally ruled that people in public places and public figures have little expectation of privacy." ahahaha live like the little people Posted by: artisanal 'ette at January 23, 2020 05:58 PM (vEIlU) 215

Trump's lawyers will have three full days to say whatever they want.
I predict about 30 seconds dedicated to refuting the previous three days, and then the rest of the time spent outlining corruption of the Obama Administration in Ukraine, all directly into Congressional record. Does Rudy get to talk? My feeling is that if Rudy gets to talk, he'll get them so enraged that one or more of them might have screaming breakdowns on the Senate floor and have to be dragged off bodily. /or maybe that's just a sweet dream I have.

Well, I guess we'll see soon if Brian Cates/ @drawandstrike (I know he reads the site whether he is a moron is another matter) is right that Trump set up this impeachment so he can go into the Well of the Senate and dump on all the Dems.
Also, rules of the Senate during impeachment says all Senators must be present. Last night Feinstein bugged out early. I bet Mitch doesn't say a word about it. Posted by: blaster at January 23, 2020 06:24 PM (ZfRYq) 368

Funny thing about those sequestered files. Hehehe.
As a cost saving measure we store all sequestered government files on this same super secure server. Turns out that it is the same server that had all the Epstein cell video files. And they all melted in the same accidental acid bath. What are the odds of THAT, amirght? It's all Trump's fault because he cut all the spending so much we can't afford more than one server for the entire country. *raises fist* Orangemanbad!

Yep it's hard to keep up/keep straight, but the Flynn case continues to be a veritable festival of government misconduct and dubious conduct. More "oopsie, here's more evidence!!" this past week.
May/may not be affected by this FISA stuff, but in any case wonder if Judge Sullivan realizes that he's now in a spot where his decisions will have out-sized impact on the credibility of key institutions. Not a salty follower of federal cases, but this case simply has to be one of the most laughably compromised ones evah.
