Wait, unlike where you, your supporters both congressional & populous forces illegal procedures into a legal inquiry? What? You don’t know what I’m talking about? I’m going to provide some links for everyone’s reading & I’ll provide a summary of your actions & the legalities...
...let’s start w/the “behind closed-doors & transparency.” 1st you have to understand something. The House of Representatives is only legally allowed to start the Impeachment Proceedings by holding a inquiry. Just so as there is no confusion: archives.gov/founding-docs/…
Article 1 Section 2 states: “The House of Representatives shall chuse their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment.” Now they don’t have the power to conduct “Hearings.” That is a part of the trial which only the Senate has authority to do via...
...Article 1 Section 3 “The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments.” So, back to the inquiry. The definition of a inquiry: merriam-webster.com/dictionary/inq…
So, a inquiry is a investigation. Investigations are normally held in a way as to prevent the compromise of evidence or witnesses. Here is the American Bar’s procedures concerning the conduct of a investigation: americanbar.org/groups/crimina…
Standard 1.2 states: (c)(i) develop sufficient factual information to enable the prosecutor to make a fair and objective determination of whether and what charges should be brought and to guard against prosecution of the innocent, and...
(ii) develop legally admissible evidence sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction of those who are guilty and warrant prosecution.

Standard 1.4 (d)(iv) seek in most circumstances to maintain the secrecy and confidentiality of criminal investigations.

Standard 1.5
(a) The prosecutor should neither confirm nor deny the existence of an investigation, or reveal the status of the investigation, nor release information concerning the investigation, with the following exceptions:

At this point you really need to read the link provided.
Also at this point I’m going to switch to the next part that keeps being brought up & that is “due process.”
Here is a link about due process: loc.gov/exhibits/magna

You have to understand something about due process. Due process came about to protect our rights from being taken from us. It is a valid legal procedure within the judicial courts of law. I say judicial courts of law...
..., because the Department of Justice is the only branch of our government that for very specific & extreme circumstances involving the breaking of very specific laws has been granted through legal proceedings that absolutely & unequivocally requires due process before those...
...rights can be taken away through a trial. Now remember, that in accordance w/the Constitution of the United States the only part of congress that has the power to conduct a trial is the Senate & not the House of Representatives. Congress can only amend the constitution to...
...recognize rights that we already have, but we’re not specifically mentioned in the Bill of Rights & Amendments. Congress has no power to take away a person’s rights under any circumstances. So, if the House of Representatives can not conduct trials, hearings or courts, how...
...are they denying anyone’s due process? That brings us to the Senate, what they can do & due process.

The Senate can only find a person holding a political office innocent or guilty of the Articles of Impeachment handed to them by the House of Representatives. The only...
...things that the Senate can do if a person is found guilty is under Article 1 Section 3: “Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States.”
So, if Congress can not remove a person’s right why does someone need due process? They don’t, but precedence within the Senate is to provide that for courtesies sake. Mine you a precedent is not a procedure. Here is the definition of precedence: merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pre…
Here is the definition of procedure: merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pro…
