I will be live tweeting the Congressional Hearings on the Mueller Report here. Before they start, sound off on what you hope to hear, what you want more clarification on and what you want Congress to get to the bottom of with these specific hearings. Also, comment with any specific legal questions you might have and I will try to get to it.
Two part question. First, I'd like to know why a sitting president can't be indicted. Second, I'd like to know how anyone who holds that opinion can also claim that no one is above the law.
I lived through the Nixon administration. The cover-up was to Nixon as the 2016 election interference is to Trump? Mr. Mueller, what? There are thin lines between Nixon and Trump, so thin that the line between comedy and tragedy is a grand canyon. Help me out, Amee. Let's all make the Constitution strong again.
I want more info about KT McFarland. She told Senate Committee that she took notes on transition phone calls b/w Trump & Putin & Lavrov. There was only a record of one call b/w Trump & Putin in Nov b4 she joined team & none w/ Lavrov. Then KT said she didn’t remember correctly. No one is going to mistake taking notes for phone calls b/w T&P! This clearly shows that a back channel was established!!!
Why does one side of the American political spectrum get to just disregard facts (the basis of their job description) and then go home like nothing seriously demeaning to the well being of our republic just happened. Is this the ancient Indian curse presenting itself to the confederacy? Just kidding, not really.
A lot of people are saying this is a waste of time that we need impeachment hearings. I read the article and watergate started in a similar way although these hearings dont have the original players. But then they all refused to show. However, i do think these hearings will be educational. Would you agree they are useful or a waste of time Amee
Here is a little pre-game read ahead of John Dean's expert testimony this afternoon on the Mueller Report. You can expect a lot of comparisons between Trump and Nixon and references to Watergate. https://www.npr.org/2019/06/10/731119019/key-nixon-accuser-returns-to-capitol-with-sights-set-on-another-president …
Thanks for all you do Amee!
I’m here and anxiously waiting

Did anyone think the President (Nixon) could not be indicted while in office?
I've heard enough from this Malcolm character. Let's move on.

Dean is Pelosi's Roy Cohn.
The GOP thinks this is all a game. It's white privilege and male privilege wrapped into a frat bro. I think the rest of the world sees this though...

Representative Collins was extremely unwarranted. If he is so convinced that President Trump is exonerated, then why wasn't he exonerated?

After reading the article, do you think Dean's hearing will help move an impeachment inquiry forward?
