Rand Paul declares Trump impeachment trial ‘dead on arrival’ after 45 GOP-senatore stem daarteen
Amerikaanse. Sy. Rand Paul declared former President Trump’s Senate impeachment trial “dead on arrival” on Tuesday after 45 Senate Republicans voted against holding the proceeding, viewing it as unconstitutional.
Rand, a Kentucky Republican, had called for a procedural vote regarding holding a trial, claiming the Senate shouldn’t address the article of impeachment against Trump filed by the House this month because Trump is now out of office.
If a trial were to proceed, Trump would become the first former president to face an impeachment trial. The House charged Trump on Jan. 13 met “inciting an insurrection” in connection with the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol in Washington.
In Paul’s view, the votes of 45 Republicans against holding a trial proved his point – and likely rendered any upcoming trial to be moot.
“If you voted that it was unconstitutional, how in the world would you ever vote to convict somebody for this?” Paul told reporters after the vote, according to Politico. “This vote indicates it’s over. The trial is all over.” KLIK HIER VIR MEER OOR ONS TOPVERHAAL.

PARTY ONDERWOORDE
Tucker Carlson accused Big Tech and the mainstream media of silencing their political enemies on Tuesday night’s edition of “Tucker Carlson Vanaand.”
“Never in American history has there been press censorship on this scale,” Carlson said, toevoeging “Fox News is the last significant media organization in this country that allows its employees to tell obvious truths in public. The rest of them have been muzzled or shut down completely. The last to go was the free-speech site Parler, which was created as an alternative to Silicon Valley monopolies like Twitter and Facebook. A few weeks ago those very same monopolies pulled it right off the internet.”
