GOP Rep. Ralph Abraham introduces resolution to expel Nancy Pelosi from House
By Gregg Re, Fox News, October 9, 2019:
GOP A Louisiana Republican congressman introduced a resolution Tuesday to expel Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., from the House of Representatives, the latest sign that frustration in the GOP is building as Democrats continue their impeachment inquiry against President Trump.
Story continues below advertisementRep. Ralph Abraham’s resolution stands no realistic chance of passing in the Democratic-controlled House. Likewise, Republicans have argued that Democrats’ potential articles of impeachment are all but certain to stall if they ever reach the Senate.
“Nancy Pelosi’s vicious crusade against our lawfully-elected President is nothing more than a politically-motivated witch hunt and it must be stopped,” Abraham said in a statement. “She has disgraced the people’s House and weaponized the Speaker’s gavel for her party’s political gain.”
Abraham added: “House Democrats spent nearly three years obsessed with election meddling only to dwarf any such efforts with their own deceitful plan to nullify the 2016 election and prevent President Trump from winning in 2020. I have introduced a resolution calling for her to be expelled from the House and for the Speaker’s Office to be vacated.”
Fox News is told that the resolution has been closely held, and hasn’t secured many Republican cosponsors — but that Abraham’s office expects it to gain traction.
Abraham is running for Louisiana governor, along with fellow GOP candidate Eddie Rispone. A primary election will be held Saturday, and President Trump will visit Louisiana on Friday for a rally on behalf of both candidates as they seek to unseat incumbent Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards.
The text of the resolution reads simply: “Resolved, That pursuant to Article 1, Section 5, Clause 2 of the United States Constitution, Representative Nancy Pelosi be, and she hereby is, expelled from the House of Representatives and the Office of the Speaker is declared to be vacant.”
That constitutional clause holds that “Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member.”

The Trump administration has mirrored congressional Republicans’ aggressive approach in response to Democrats’ impeachment inquiry. The State Department on Tuesday barred Gordon Sondland, the U.S. European Union ambassador, from appearing before a House panel conducting the probe.
“I would love to send Ambassador Sondland, a really good man and great American, to testify, but unfortunately he would be testifying before a totally compromised kangaroo court, where Republican’s rights have been taken away, and true facts are not allowed out for the public to see,” Trump wrote on Twitter.
The strategy risks further provoking Democrats in the impeachment probe, setting up court challenges and the potential for lawmakers to draw up an article of impeachment accusing Trump of obstructing their investigations. California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff, chairman of the House intelligence committee, said that Sondland’s no-show would be grounds for obstruction of justice and could give a preview of what some of the articles of impeachment against Trump would entail.

But as lawmakers seek to amass ammunition to be used in an impeachment trial, the White House increasingly believes all-out warfare is its best course of action.
“What they did to this country is unthinkable. It’s lucky that I’m the president. A lot of people said very few people could handle it. I sort of thrive on it,” Trump said Monday at the White House. “You can’t impeach a president for doing a great job. This is a scam.”

If Trump is smart enough , he should pass E.O to ban all terror/crime/illegal/drug linked persons from coming to America and those who advocate for them should lose their assets/citizenship and deported/jailed as terror agents.
Most demonrats would lose their assets and right to work as Public servants/senators etc. They are waging war and
playing defense will not get you anything.
Unless this is done there will be never ending cases . And America will become like canada/EU
Like this Left/Liberal Loons Run Country has been turned into ISIS/jihadi base https://tinyurl.com/y74v5327
But corrupt MSM will not talk about it

Representative Abraham definitely isn’t part of the do-nothing crowd, is he? Though his measure is symbolic since the commiecrats control the House, it is good politics.
BTW, Pelosi’s line about passing something to find out what’s in it fits the medical school definition of a stool sample.

It is worth noting that Abraham is in a three-way race for Governor of LA with Democratic incumbent John Bel Edwards and another Republican named Rispone.

I think she should be forced to undergo testing to determine her mental capacity.
If she is found to be suffering from dementia or early Alzheimers that would get her out real quick.

I am not so sure of that. Even if she had certifiable dementia, which I believe she does, the Democrats would argue that we are being discriminatory by try to get rid of her.

Dems are pulling rabbits out of hats: it’s time we used the same tricks. If we don’t fight back, they’ll have the upper hand in everything…

100% agreement here but we don’t have power. The power is held by our so called representatives and it seems that no matter how conservative they are on the campaign trail they move way over to the left after the elections. I sometimes wonder if there is a virus that infects them after elections.

Hilariously stupid even by current GOP/Trump Cult standards…

I’m not so sure, that Trump is crazy as a fox.
The demonrats, have tried their best, to pin something on him. They wasted, how many millions, on the Mueller investigation. Now, they have decided to go after an impeachment, on some pretty sketchy “evidence”.
They are scared to death, that this Ukraine/Biden link, is going to bite them in their jackass. If you are wondering what I’m talking about, go to YouTube, and check out Glenn Beck. He has a 2 hr. special on SOME of the connections, and it’s pretty damning. The Biden portion is small potatoes. It goes so much deeper. What they accused Trump of, was facilitated by Obama’s regime. With the Clinton’s, Soros, Biden’s, and a laundry list of leftists, that were looking for dirt on Trump.
I think he’s got them frothing, and hopefully he can sink the hell out of a bunch of them. I believe that’s what “Draining the Swamp” may be about.
If he takes groping Joe out of the race, and Bernie keels over, that puts Pocahantas up for election. If she would win, God help us all!
