The Law Professors who wrote the above article weren't the only highly partisan idiots agreeing with me this week. I heard other idiots with law degrees on radio and television making the case for impeachment and saying it is pretty much a slam dunk at this point.
From the article above:
"Obstruction of justice is a serious offense that lay at the core of Bill Clinton’s impeachment and forced the resignation of Richard Nixon. The Watergate-era cliché “The cover-up is worse than the crime” misses the point that the cover-up is a crime. Congress has made it a felony for any person — including the president — to “corruptly” interfere with a proceeding before a federal agency. Powerful evidence has emerged in recent weeks suggesting that President Trump did indeed interfere with the F.B.I. investigation of Mr. Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, which is part of the broader Russia inquiry."
Another partisan idiot and lawyer who served a previous President said simply, 'Trump told CBS news and Russians in the White House that he fired Comey to relieve the pressure of the Russia investigation. That's obstruction of justice and the proof is Mr. Trump's own statements.'
Cool, he won't be impeached over this, but if it helps you sleep at night.
