They have to appoint House managers and she doesn\u2019t want to be a part of a sham. And what happened immediately after the House passed impeachment, is you saw Senator Mitch McConnell, the Republican leader say to, you know, the country know we\u2019re actually supposed to be the jury but we\u2019re going to coordinate all of our activities with the defendant here in the trial. So, I think that the speaker is just looking for a sense from the Senate that they need to be honest with the American people, honest with the Constitution and do a fair process.\u201d &amp;nbsp; Cut 3 https:\/\/grabien.com\/story.php?id=266255 SACHS: \u201cAll over America people are suffering. They\u2019re suffering from droughts, forest fires, extreme storms, flooding. We\u2019ve had $100 billion or more years of losses from climate damages. What does the President do? Not only does he not do anything, he does worse, which is trying to promote more fossil fuel emissions of carbon dioxide, coal, oil and gas, instead of what the American people want, which is renewable energy. Why does he do it? Because big oil and big coal funds the Republican Party, and because he\u2019s trying to carry a few coal states on the line that he\u2019s telling them that this is good for them. It\u2019s not good for them, it\u2019s not good for anybody, but he is endangering all of us in the United States. It\u2019s very sad and very worrisome.\u201d &amp;nbsp; https:\/\/nypost.com\/2019\/12\/23\/courts-obamacare-ruling-deals-a-blow-to-a-hideous-monster\/ &amp;nbsp; Cut 4. Gag Me with a Gavel!

Even before the impeachment vote was taken Democrats were denouncing Trump, ones who were on the committee evaluating the evidence. And now you have the Republicans doing something that's even worse. They\u2019re the jurors in the case essentially, and they're announcing that they\u2019ll never vote for impeachment against the President, and the leader, McConnell, being especially firm about it. It just makes the whole process look like a joke when it's supposed to be a somber, dignified way that you're looking at a very, very serious thing: Should the president of the United States be removed?&quot; &amp;nbsp; Cut 7 https:\/\/grabien.com\/story.php?id=266267 &amp;nbsp; TRUMP: &quot;Our shared values are under assault like never before. Extreme left-wing radicals, both inside and outside government, are determined to shred our Constitution and eradicate the beliefs we all cherish. Far-left socialists are trying to tear down the traditions and customs that made America the greatest nation on Earth. They reject the principles of our Founding Fathers, principles enshrined into the Declaration of Independence, which proclaims that our rights come from our Creator.\u201d &amp;nbsp; Cut 8 https:\/\/grabien.com\/story.php?id=266233 GRAHAM: \u201cFor Christianity Today to suggest that he should step down, why? What he\u2019s done so much for our country, just because this is what Nancy Pelosi and a few people on the left want, and this magazine is following in step with the leftist agenda. My father would be very disappointed, my father actually had nothing really to do with this magazine for the last 25, 30 years.\u201d &amp;nbsp; Cut 9 https:\/\/grabien.com\/story.php?id=266203 SCARBOROUGH: &quot;And, Jon Meacham, obviously Christianity exists and is doing well across the globe in many respects. But the evangelicals that you and I grew up around, still many go to church and worship the Lord and keep politics out of it. But it is \u2014 it is something that there are very loud, very outspoken people, leaders of the faith, who actually have \u2014 have basically turned their back on basic core beliefs that you can find in the Sermon on the Mount, in Jesus\u2019 parables, just for a White House photo, just for the ability to appear on TV and be seen as one of the President\u2019s selected preachers. I saw one comment from \u2014 from someone who \u2014 an evangelical preacher who had worked with Donald Trump who said the reason they always fall in line, these \u2014 these public preachers, is because they \u2014 they can\u2019t handle the shame of a negative Tweet or being disassociated or being outside the reach of power.&quot; &amp;nbsp; https:\/\/www.catholicleague.org\/obamas-war-on-religion-2\/ &amp;nbsp; Cut 10 https:\/\/grabien.com\/story.php?id=266307 &amp;nbsp; Cut 11 https:\/\/grabien.com\/story.php?id=146039 &amp;nbsp; #MerryChristmas #Deception #DrKeith #TheScalpel #News #Politics #Future #Conservatives #Democrats #hypocrites #liberals #immigration #presidentialcandidate #brands #america #freedom #branding #progressive #truth #history #Dependence #independence #ValerieJarrett #POTUS #MAGA #Trump","author_name":"The Scalpel With Dr. Keith Rose","author_url":"https:\/\/scalpeledge.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/20261732\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/109999139"}
