Defenestrategy posted:Is this a "No we aren't going to try to impeach ever" or a "Look we still have all these crimes to investigate and all these people to flip so that impeachment has an actual chance in the senate" I think its a "GOP wants a formal vote to start an impeachment inquiry" even though it seems like the rules says you don't necessarily need one and its the GOP trying to get more time etc. but I could be wrong

The GOP is trying to control the narrative by convincing people that the democrats are doing some kind of dastardly hidden impeachment process by comparing it to how the house was doing the Nixon impeachment process. The one that didn't even make it to a vote before he pulled the ripcord. The republicans didn't follow that process for Clinton. Because there is no process; you bring articles and the articles are voted on. The GOP message is trying to confuse people into thinking that this is a big kid version of getting a traffic ticket and you have a right to see what's going on and everything else. And it's working because people are morons and the same sort of people that got tricked into thinking that personal debt is the same thing as sovereign debt. Pelosi (or more specifically the heads of the investigative committees) basically said 'gently caress you, you don't get to dictate this process' except in traditional democratic fashion hosed up the messaging horribly.

Impeachment is directly in the Constitution. The House makes *all* of the rules themselves on how to conduct said impeachment investigations. Judges don't get to decide and the White House doesn't get to decide. In the past, they've had official Inquiry kick-off votes, but they don't actually matter. No sudden change to House procedure happens when you vote in an inquiry or not. Also, subpoena power doesn't change either, as House Republicans made the switch to one-party-only subpoenas, which House Democrats kept in as a rule. So this whole "formal vote" poo poo is a stall tactic by the White House and House Republicans. They aren't winning / can't win on the facts or the situation, so the only thing available to attack is the process. Kick dirt on the umpires and say they aren't legitimate and the fans will cheer. Caveat: There are some dumbfuck judges involved that might go WELL YOU'RE NOT SERIOUS BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T VOTE IN AN INQUIRY but you're never going to win those judges anyways.

Really is kinda humbling that with all the backstabbing, bus throwing, and poo poo Donnie has a history of doing, and has done consistently that nobody has rolled on the dude yet with mycrimes.txt. Like do they all believe that Donny wouldn't bus them the moment it was expedient to do so?

Felt more like 'ah gently caress I don't have an answer for that right now, so I'm gonna say something else.' I don't think she's said it's not a contributor, just that it's not the only one, and didn't do a good job of communicating that. That, and I think she figured she could ride on a jobs guarantee/jobs training program (which I believe still has her support?) in conjunction w/ a GND, which, well, yeah. It's a good fallback position to some forms of automation, but it has to happen first. So, yeah, wasn't a good answer.
