Is any one else just annoyed the impeachment crap?

Not a fan of trump, just think the house could come up with something better to do for the country than try and impeach trump every five seconds.

Flunked Social Studies, huh? One of the primary functions of the House is Judicial Oversight. What you're sick of is their job. Why it seems unusual for you---and others--that this House is doing their jobs is that for 12 years when the House was republican controlled they never did ANYTHING. Not oversight...not creating jobs bills........nothing. For the first time in 12 years the House is functioning as the Constitution says it should.

@anythingoes477 And who oversees the House?

anythingoes477 · M

@sunsporter1649 The House does not need oversight. The House is the oversight for the Legislative Branch. The balance of votes in the House and the Senate are the checks balances in government. The House per se does not need anyone to supervise it. The balance of party votes does that.

@anythingoes477 You mean any congressman can say or do anything without being concerned about censure or removal?

@sunsporter1649 Where did I say that.....................anywhere??????

@anythingoes477 "The House does not need oversight."

@sunsporter1649 The House of Representatives...........the entire body of legislature. Duh!!! It is THEIR job to do congressional oversight. READ A BOOK.

Who judges the judges on the Supreme Court??? By your line of thinking someone must do that. Right??

sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M

@anythingoes477 Yup, someone does judge the Supreme Court, the House. Read a book

@sunsporter1649 Why don't you show me that book. A simple link will do. I'd love to read that. Do it.

@sunsporter1649 Surely ur not running another bullshit bluff on your "real information"... are you? Don't you all ever choke saying others spread fake news when you all just pull bullshit out of thin air everyday and keep trying to pass it off like no one would ever know the difference.

@sunsporter1649 A page where someone submits a question and someone else---no mention at all of who that may be---answers it and the "best answer" is posted is your "authoritative site"??????

Impeachment powers of the SCOTUS is not everyday "congressional oversight". Impeachment of a SCOTUS judge has a very, very narrow scope and there are no constant standing committees to investigate the actions of those on the SCOTUS. If the behavior or lifestyle or decision of a Justice is soooooooooo outrageous it draws so much public criticism on both sides of the aisle that something must be done.....only then does it fall on BOTH the House and Senate to agree to remove them from office.

House congressional oversight of the Judicial Branch and the Executive Branch is apples and oranges for what even triggers an investigation--and the scope of the investigations are about and why---and how each works.

@anythingoes477 You mean SCOTUS judges can do whatever they want without coming under scrutiny?

@sunsporter1649 I've never heard of any of them calling a Soviet country's leader to ask him for help in committing treason... have you?

@anythingoes477 But Senators are allowed to, eh?
