The efforts of the Democrats to begin another round of impeachment hearings by obtaining secret grand jury testimony from special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation have been squashed by the Supreme Court.
Originally the courts unsigned order allowed the Trump administration the ability to keep the undisclosed details from the Russia investigation out of reach of the Democrat lawmakers.
The court has scheduled arguments for the case in the fall, however, it is more likely President Trump will already be reelected before the material is made public.
Breitbart News reports:
For justices eager to avoid a definitive ruling, the delay could mean never having to decide the case, if either Trump loses or Republicans regain control of the House next year. It’s hard to imagine the Biden administration would object to turning over the Mueller documents or House Republicans would continue to press for them.
The federal appeals court in Washington ruled in March that the documents should be turned over because the House Judiciary Committee’s need for the material in its investigation of Trump outweighed the Justice Department’s interests in keeping the testimony secret.
Mueller’s 448-page report, issued in April 2019, “stopped short” of reaching conclusions about Trump’s conduct, including whether he obstructed justice, to avoid stepping on the House’s impeachment power, the appeals court said.
The House had opposed the delay on the grounds that its investigation of Trump was continuing, and that time is of the essence because of the approaching election. The current session of the House will end Jan. 3, and lawmakers elected in November will take their seats.
The committee investigation “continues today and has further developed in light of recent events,” the House told the justices, citing the “possible exercise of improper political influence” on decisions to seek a shorter prison term for Trump confidant Roger Stone and end the prosecution of former national security adviser Michael Flynn, despite his two guilty pleas.
The Democrats are insane and their efforts to impeach President Trump are a lost cause. They have nothing on him and they are wasting their and everyone else’s time and money.
