FROM EIR DAILY ALERT
Kesha Rogers’ Opponent Al Green Insists To Impeach President Trump, Although He Broke No Laws
Sept. 15, 2018 (EIRNS)—At a panel session titled “Impeachment: A Necessary Remedy for Bigotry in Policy,” at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s Annual Legislative Conference, Rep. Al Green (D-TX) not only insisted President Donald Trump be impeached, but argued he should be impeached whether or not he had broken any laws, the Daily Signal reported on Sept. 13. Lifting his leg to urinate on the Constitution, Green pronounced: “The people who say, ‘What law did he break? What rule did he break?’ they are perpetrating upon you a belief that is totally inaccurate.”
Green’s approach to Constitutional law was seconded—and then some—by Allan Lichtman, professor of history at American University and another panelist, who stated:
“Impeachment is the appropriate remedy for a runaway, rogue president who endangers our national security, our liberties, our freedom, our great traditions like an independent judiciary, a free press, tolerance among different groups in the country. And don’t get hung up on whether it is a technically indictable crime under the statute law.”
