From court today: Impeachment is NOT just about Ukraine

7. The Mueller Report can still be used as evidence.

All the testimony was taken under oath and there was a lot of evidence gathered.

No Committees are required to question these witnesses again. They have the sworn testimonies. That is all they need to file charges.

There were ten charges of obstruction of justice with 5 of those charges being very strong.

There was a lot of evidence of the Trump campaign colluding with the Russians. It wasn't just Paul Manafort. There were people that were helping the Russians attack our election system. His present campaign manager, Brad Pascrale, served as the digital media director in the 2016 campaign, before he was promoted to his present position.

If the House does impeach, and it goes to the Senate for a trial, how many charges should the Senate have to address? I think it would be a mistake just to send this one charge from the Ukraine investigation. The Senate should have to address each and every charge from the Mueller Report, as well as the new charges from the Ukraine betrayal, if it was introduced to the trial. Or whatever other charges that might arise between now and the time of the trial?

In my opinion, it is very important that they address as many charges as possible and make the Senators address each and every charge, in the Senate trial. This should be a requirement that the Democrats could demand? The Chief justice would be the final arbiter in any disagreements.

Both sides will have a strategy if there is a Senate trial.
