18 December 2019 is a sad day for the Republic of the United States of America. Primarily on partisan lines, Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United States of America has been impeached by the US House of Representatives. Two articles of impeachment were brought forth, the first, Abuse of Power, and the second, Obstruction of Congress. Both articles were affirmed. The next step of the impeachment process will be to move this to the trial phase that will reside in the US Senate. How things will transpire on the Senate side of the Capitol remains to be seen, but in all likelihood, the President will be acquitted. Also recall that Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, has already stated that he is working closely with the White House on how to proceed – so a juror is working with the defendant. So much for process.
The majority of our discussion today was centered on the facts of the case. Not emotion. Not partisanship. Not process. Facts. And the facts have not changed because they are facts. Not opinions. Facts. Recall the fact pattern of actions taken and not taken. Recall the witness testimony. Recall the defense by the Republicans and the President – primarily centered on process, distraction, and finger-pointing at the Democrats. Not focused on the facts. Why? Because the facts as they stand in the case against President Trump are strong. If you have exculpatory evidence Mr. President, release it, so that this country can begin to heal. You have had more than enough time to do so, but you have not. A further indication that you have something to hide. This is a sad day for the United States of America and for so many reasons. And my heart weeps for my country and fellow Americans. May God help us and forgive us.
