Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said Saturday that congressional lawmakers are violating the U.S. Constitution in what he described as a “show trial” against former President Donald Trump.
The House impeachment brief (pdf) alleges that Trump incited a mob to breach the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 while lawmakers were convened in a joint session to consider certification of electoral college votes.
Trump’s legal team denies the allegation and argues in a memo (pdf) that the trial is unconstitutional because Trump is no longer president. The team also argues that Trump exercised his First Amendment rights in calling into question the results of the election.

We have moved beyond joke and into bizarro world. We can only hope that the tables are turned and Dershowitz is right and Trump’s team can put Congress and the election on trial.
ReplyDeleteI don't see them overturning the election, sad to say.

DeleteCongress put itself above the law a LONG time ago. And they routinely engage in conduct that would get anyone else in America tossed into prison forthwith. Why the hell do you think criminals like Pelosi OPENLY engage in Insider Trading purchasing MILLIONS in Tesla stock the day before the administration announces it's plan to move the Federal auto fleet away from fuel to electric vehicles....BLATANT Insider Trading....for which NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. Congress is nothing but a federally protected criminal cabal. ALL of them need to be hung.
