[Newt Gingrich] New comment on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says Senate Republicans....
Trang Ánh Nam has left a new comment on your post "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says Senate Republicans...":
Nancy Pelosi, Donald Trump stand their ground over impeachment
So much for holiday cheer.
President Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi exchanged tweets on Monday over her holding up delivering articles of impeachment to the GOP-controlled Senate until a fair impeachment trial can be guaranteed.
Trump kicked off the exchange when he criticized the California Democrat for conducting an unfair impeachment investigation in the House.
"Pelosi gives us the most unfair trial in the history of the U.S. Congress, and now she is crying for fairness in the Senate, and breaking all rules while doing so," Trump posted on Twitter. "She lost Congress once, she will do it again!"
Pelosi then weighed in on Trump's tweet.
"The House cannot choose our impeachment managers until we know what sort of trial the Senate will conduct. President Trump blocked his own witnesses and documents from the House, and from the American people, on phony complaints about the House process," the speaker wrote. "What is his excuse now?"
Pelosi is temporarily holding up the two articles of impeachment the House voted on last Wednesday after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he was coordinating the Senate trial with White House lawyers and declared he wouldn't be an impartial juror.
"We would hope there would be a fair process just as I hope they would honor the Constitution," Pelosi said of Republicans in the Senate during her weekly news conference last Thursday.
McConnell, appearing Monday on "Fox & Friends," said he's in no rush to get the articles.
"She's apparently trying to tell us how to run the trial," the Kentucky Republican said. "You know, I'm not anxious to have this trial. So if she wants to hold onto the papers, go right ahead."
Until then, he said both sides remain deadlocked.
"Look, we're at an impasse. We can't do anything until the speaker sends the papers over, so everybody enjoy the holidays," he said.
