Pelosi, Nadler and Schiff Announce Two Articles of Impeachment – Abuse of Power, and Obstruction of Congress… theconservativetreehouse.com/2019/12/10/pel…
2. It is more interesting what is *not* included in the final articles than what *is* claimed.
3. Despite all of the energy exhausted by the House Judiciary for compulsion of evidence from the Mueller probe (GJ information, McGahn depo etc.)...

THEY DROPPED IT ALL. !!!
4. Remember, when Schiff fired up his "impeachment inquiry" based on the pre-planned *whistle blower* nonsense... (that was an excuse)... previously, and continuously, the HJC was still trying to exploit Mueller's stuff.
5. All of the HJC efforts are contingent upon success in the judicial branch where everything is bottle-necking in Appellate courts and SCOTUS...

....And success is likely tenuous at best.
6. While House "Lawfare contractors" will likely keep trying to obstruct the presidency, through their bastardized exploits of the legal system, for the process of this impeachment they've taken a knee.
7. Article One is “Abuse of power” – and structured on a false premise that President Trump “exercised the powers of his public office to obtain an improper personal benefit, while ignoring or injuring the national interest.”
8. Sounds all good and legally wordy etc.... but the underlying defense is stronger than the case.

It's just a feeble article (indictment). Designed to fail.
9. Article Two is “Obstruction of Congress” – and structured on a ridiculous premise President Trump “engaged in unprecedented, categorical, & indiscriminate defiance of the impeachment inquiry”, by challenging congressional subpoenas and seeking relief from the judicial branch.
10. Article two is even weaker than article one.

He didn't willingly participate in his hanging, therefore he is guilty of a crime that deserves hanging....

It's silly. This is the weakest excuse for an impeachment article in history. Driven by the rushed process.
11. The weakness of the articles now actually appears to be a feature, not a flaw. The exercise of the “impeachment process” (writ large) was more of a political promise to the far-left constituents of the resistance movement itself.
12. Traditionally, impeachment is constitutionally designed to remove an elected official from office. However, in this modern example the process has been intentionally corrupted to disparage the President, not to remove him.
13. Nationally the democrat resistance voters are not too smart. What Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler are delivering for them is an impeachment in name only.
14. In essence Pelosi has used the impeachment process as way to sooth the emotional needs of the far-left resistance.
15. The downstream consequences for this incredibly partisan political effort could be a massive backlash amid independent voters and centrist democrats.

Merry Christmas
