The only person to have worked on 3 impeachment probes says that Trump's conduct has been "more serious" than Nixon's was.

Read:  "I DO NOT LIKE HIM"

Read: "Anybody who dislikes Trump's actions must be viewing it personally, because I say so."

The prez wants to testify. He wants to be heard. He wants his staff to testify.

But no.

99-Year-Old Nuremberg Prosecutor Calls Trump's Detention of Children a 'Crime Against Humanity'
"What could cause more great suffering than what they did in the name of immigration law?"

Quote
President Trump’s actions are far worse than those of President Richard Nixon. If Congress fails to act, the current president and all future incumbents will be emboldened to act as though they are above the law because he and they will be. The evidence publicly available establishes impeachable offenses beyond a reasonable doubt and leaves no alternative but for Congress to act. Impeachment is the appropriate remedy, not censure.
~Watergate prosecutor

They must all just "not like" Trump, huh?

Like I said - you don't like her, but you cannot contradict what she said.

Your argument is not that he is competent or qualified, merely that Trump can cheat - yes, cheat - the system so long as the Senate refuses to do its job.

Does the shit ever get caught in your mouth when you talk like this?

‘Secret and unaccountable’: Where some immigrant teens are being taken by ICE

Quote
The human rights researcher had heard that ICE agents occasionally swept up migrant kids and locked them up in juvenile detention facilities, but she had no idea why.

One of the places ICE supposedly housed these young people, Godoy learned, was a few hours from her home in Seattle. She searched online for information about the detentions, but couldn't find anything that explained what was going on. She then filed a series of public records requests with officials at the juvenile detention center closest to her, hoping they could shed light on what ICE was doing and why these minors were being held in places run more like jails than the shelters most migrant children end up in when they are detained. She had specifically requested detailed detainee files, with names and personal information redacted, and the facility was ready to share them with her.

But what happened next stunned her: ICE blocked the facility from sharing the records and the federal government even went to court to keep the information secret.

Unbeknownst to Godoy, she had stumbled upon an obscure pocket of the immigration system, where little is known, and little is divulged.

For more than a decade, ICE has been taking a small number of immigrant teens it deems to be dangerous far from their families and detaining them for months at a time.

For immigration attorneys and human rights experts such as Godoy, the practice is alarming.

"I may not object to the fact they are being held," said Godoy, director of the Center for Human Rights at the University of Washington. "But I object to the fact that nobody can even know who they are (and) why."

But the GOP won, so it's okay with Kid.
