White House planning to proceed with State of the Union, but details up in the air after Pelosi thre

Lib polls, lib lies

 

It does

If the president calls congress into session they are compelled to be there

 

Nonsense. We all know what he will do. He'll hold a self-serving rally among his worshipping base and lie for an hour or two then all you people will run out to polish his latest turds.

 

Congress can be called into session by a quorum.......then instantly adjourned. In addition, being called into session does not give the president the right to enter or address congress.

Next ?

And there are still no “arrest” powers specified, no matter how much you imagine.

 

No he cannot. He has to be invited.
The same goes for the Supreme Court.

No matter how many time you repeat a falsehood....

 

You did not read the section I pointed you to did you?

When trump calls congress into special session he decides if ir when the adjourn

 

LMAO...Yeah, trump grins like a porked schoolgirl after a secret meeting with the russian ambassador and then insults our allies, he treats the law as his personal servant, and most of the so-called officers that he commissioned to run his kakistocracy are now in jail, indicted or fled from your great orange hope.
G'wan, tell us another one.

 

Its not a falsehood

Trump can call a special session and they cant adjourn till he says so

 

Says the guy who believes in Russian collusion, who believes the buzzfeed story, and who believes those high schoolers were perpetrators. Your ilk are cute when you talk about "imagining reality". Lol

 

You are totslly consumned by kneejerk. TDS

 

1) they ARE in session, as opposed to recess when they all go on official vacation and there is no business done. Yes even during the shutdown they are in session, not recess.
2) even were they in recess, and if he called a special session, he has no actual authority to speak in Congress. Not any more than you or I would. He has to be given permission by a resolution of that body. None of his powers allow him to speak on the floor of Congress without a resolution of that body.
His duty allows him to complete it by serving them with a letter. There is no constitutional requirement for a speech over a letter and the alternatives seem to imply a power of Congress to not invite the *********ker down as a way if signaling their official displeasure.

 

False.
The president can call a special session, but he can’t keep them in session. If they are in session, he can adjourn the session.

He still can’t enter and address without permission.

 

Convening them does not give him power to speak on the floor of Congress.

 

If you are talking about Article II, Section 3, yes, he can call them into session but that does not allow him to speak.
He has no right to either chamber of congress.

Where are you getting he can hold them there indefinitely?
That’s a new one...

 

Judging from your quote in the Constitution there doesn't seem to be any other interpretation.

 

So he can convene but everyone has to remain silent? This is getting crazier by the hour.

 

No, he can't. The executive has no power to speak on the floor of Congress. Calling them into session just means they're in session. He cannot force them to do anythin.

Do you WANT him to commit a crime on national television that's pretty fairly an impeachable offense?

 

He can call them back to session from recess, yes.
That doesnt mean he gets to give a speech on the floor of Congress.
And no, him calling them back into session doesnt mean they have to do anything.
And guess who impeaches and convicts? The legislature.

What you're seeing here is a feature, not a bug. Separate branches with distinct powers and duties.

 

Yep - Blinky the Clown went Full Retard.

Unlike the Democrats' drooling TDS-addled base, ordinary Americans aren't going to be impressed with this stunt.

This year's SOTU is gonna be a real doozy...

 

So freedom of Speech applies everywhere except university campuses and the House?

I recall Nancy Pelosi predicting a "Constitutional Crisis" if Devon Nunes released a memo regarding the phony 'Russian probe' and now she's creating a genuine Constitutional Crisis by refusing the President to address the nation in the SOTU in the traditional manner. https://www.newsmax.com/politics/ho...nunes-memo-russia-probe/2018/02/03/id/841268/

 

I can’t wait for another Pelosi “grounding”.

 

No. We all know Pelosi will be grounded. Again.

 

She shouldn't mess with 'The Donald'. Another lesson yet to be learned.

 

There is no crisis.

It's a speech. Lol

 

The Senate has the final say on impeachment and that will never happen. Don't believe anything Maxine Waters or the new Muslims in Congress say .
