What Is Impeachable And What’s Not? | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
No more unanswered subpoenas, no more stonewalling, no more evading. Comply or contempt.
Andrew congress seems to be pretty toothless in bringing trump and his toadies to justice. Trump even in his private life was always cheating, lying and conniving at all costs to even friends, partners not to mention fed.state and city laws. I mean who is actually going to drag him away…he has all federal law enforcement in his pocket.
we can only hope.
That is not in his pervue.
Inherent Contempt #bigdifference
Obstruct and go directly to Jail!

Donnie stepped on the same rake for the second time – this time the handle is going to hit him so that he’ll remember.
He must have been in Finland raking the forest. LOL
The Italian Mafia is set up all over the United States and in almost every major city. They are also involved with most of the casinos in US which they use to launder their criminal profits. They also run prostitution rings which often go hand in hand with casinos. The Fertitta family are an Italian billionaire crime family that own Station Casinos and also own the Houston Rockets and still partly own the UFC. John Gotti III is an MMA fighter connected with the UFC. The mafia rig fights for their bets and have been recruiting enforcers through the UFC. Conor McGregor and Georges St-Pierre are high level mafia enforcers and MMA fighters. St-Pierre is close friends with the Canadian drug trafficker and Italian Mafia associate Jimmy Cournoyer. The Fertittas married with the Galveston crime family in Texas with operations in Vegas and Houston. Members of the Fertitta crime family include Frank Fertitta III worth 2 billion, Lorenzo Fertitta worth 2 billion, and Tilman Fertitta worth 4 billion. Dan Caldwell is the owner of Tapout and a criminal associate of the Fertittas through the UFC. Dan Caldwell is extremely evil. Joseph Civello was the top boss until the 1970’s of the Dallas Mafia sharing a similar name with the Civella crime family of Kansas City. It is the House of Torlonia that are the Princes of Civetella-Cesi similar to the name Civella which ran the Kansas City crime family. The Torlonia family own the Kansas City crime family and have part ownership over the criminal operations in Austin and Dallas. The Sansone family are businessmen involved in real estate in Missouri and also members of the Kansas City crime family. The real estate company Sansone Group is headed up by Anthony F. Sansone Sr., James G. Sansone, Timothy G. Sansone Douglas G. Sansone, and Nicholas G. Sansone and they are white collar mobsters. Marcello Sansone is a Sicilian who is close friends with Sicilian nobles. Michael Sansone and his Anthony Sansone are members of the Kansas City crime family and Michael’s father was its boss Anthony Civella. The Torlonia family are intermarried with the Spanish House of Bourbon with Princess Beatriz of Spain and Don Marco Torlonia the 6th Prince of Civitella-Cesi who died in 2014. The Bourbon family are the primary owners of the Mexican drug cartels. Don Marco’s son Prince Giovanni Torlonia is the current head of the Torlonia family along with his brother Prince Marino Torlonia. The Torlonia family’s connection with Spain is important because the Spanish House of Bourbon are the primary owners of the Mexican drug cartels and the Mexican Mafia. The Torlonia family share ownership over some criminal enterprises like the Juarez Cartel. The Italian Mafia and cartels use proxies gangs to do their dirty work like the Mexican Mafia, Aryan Brotherhood of Texas, and street gangs like MS13. Count Alessandro Lecquio-Torlonia has connections with both Spain and Italy and he is also a top member of the House of Torlonia. About a thousand years ago the Conti di Segni family settled a branch in Conty, France which merged with the Bourbons and married in with the French Savoy family branch and La Tremoille family that were the Princes of Taranto. This family moved back to Italy as the Torlonia’s becoming the Vatican’s bankers. The Conti and Contini families had ruling families in Venice as well. The Torlonia family represent the ancient Conti di Segni family and they are owners of various mafias and drug cartels and Texas and Vegas is part of their territory. Count Alessandro Lecquio- Torlonia is the primary owner of their Texan mafia operations and owner of the Juarez Cartel.
The Torlonia family are also the owners of the Pittsburgh crime family or LaRocca crime family. Their Jewish white collar criminal billionaire front man is Mark Cuban who is from Pittsburgh and he moved to Dallas and became the owner of the Dallas Mavericks. Mark Cuban is involved in ordering games to be rigged for the mafia’s fixed bets. Sports are rigged for the mafia’s bets. The Pittsburgh crime family is headed up by Thomas Ciancutti today who may have some command over the Kansas City faction. Gregorio Conti founded the Pittsburgh crime family and the Torlonia family are partly a continuation of the Conti di Segni family. Pope Innocent III or Lotario dei Conti di Segni authorized the Roman Catholic Franciscan Order and it was the Franciscan Priest Garcia de San Francisco that founded Juarez, Mexico and established the first European settlement there which is where the Juarez Cartel originated from and operates from today. Junipero Serra was also a Franciscan priest who helped establish settlements in Tijuana where the Tijuana Cartel operates from. The House of Torlonia launder their criminal profits from their American crime families and Mexican drug cartels in Las Vegas casinos. The word casino is an Italian term derived from the noble families running gambling events out of their casas or houses. The Torlonia family are owners of the Franciscan Order and Juarez is their territory since their Franciscans founded its first European settlement. The Torlonia family are part owners of the Juarez Cartel and their fascist La Linea death squads. The Boncompagni-Ludovisi family of Rome are also part owners in the mafia’s Texas operations specifically in Austin and the Dallas crime family is still in operation managed by Civella associates and other various crime families. The Boncompagni family own the Bonanno crime family which were allied with the Cerrito crime family and I believe they covertly moved to Austin, Texas. Bon-Compagni means Good Fellows a term for made men in the mafia. The recently deceased Prince Nicolo Boncompagni of Rome was the head of this princely family and is married to Rita Jenrette of Texas. The Sforza-Cesarini family has married with the Velasco noble family of Spain with Don Guillermo Maria Miguel Fernandez of Velasco and Balfe married to Princess Carolina Sforza-Cesarini. Velasco, Texas is named after a Mexican General and relative of the Velasco family which ruled as Dukes in Spain. Luis de Velasco was the Viceroy of New Spain ruling from Mexico City. The Fertittas with Tilman Fertitta who is worth over 4 billion own the Houston Rockets. James Harden plays for the Rockets and is a mafia agent of Tilman Fertitta who runs a large gang of violent stalkers. Tilman Fertitta and James Harden are ruthlessly evil.
Las Vegas is a Spanish word and means “the meadows.” Vegas was Spanish-Mexican territory before it became part of the United States and was named in honor of the Vega family of Spain which was represented by Inigo of Arteaga and Martin the XXVIII Lord of the House of La Vega who died in 2018. His son is Ivan Arteaga the Marquis of Armunia. I believe Caesars’ Palace hotel and casino in Vegas is really named in honor of the Sforza-Cesarini family of Rome which have married with Spanish nobles. The mafias are involved in most casinos in the United States and use them for money laundering and gambling rackets using fixed bets and rigged slot machines. The Jesuit Xavier University educated James Zenni Jr. is a founder and owner of Z Capital Group which owns Affinity Gaming with casinos in Vegas including Silver Sevens Casino. The Black Nobility and Ferrari family have the Eldorado Resorts owned by their Carano family agents which also own Ferrari-Carano vineyards and winery. The Caranos take their name from Carano a commune in Trentino near Venice. Eldorado Resorts owns various casinos through out the United States including the Isle of Capri in Kansas City. Gary Carano is the head of this family with his sister Cindy Carano and wife Dana Carano. The owners of mafias use their influence to prop up businessmen who then covertly work with and enable mafias. MGM was established by the Pallavicini front man Kirk Kerkorian who also built Caesars Palace. MGM is headed up by CEO James Murren who received a Trinity College grant for Cesare Barbieri Center to conduct research in Rome, Italy. The Melzi family are the Dukes of Lodi today and they possessed the Villa Melzi d’Eril in Bellagio, Italy currently owned by the Gallarati Scotti family through their marriage with the Melzi d’Eril family. Bellagio, Italy gives the name to the Bellagio hotel and casino in Vegas. Don Pedro Enriquez d’Azevedo and Toledo of Spain was Governor of Milan and appointed Luigi Melzi as Lieutenant Royal and granted them a fiefdom in Magenta, Italy. Duke Benigno Melzi d’Eril is the current head of this family. Excalibur Hotel and Casino is owned by MGM and takes its name from the Legend of Arthur in British mythology. The Wellesley family are British peers and were also granted titles of Dukes of Ciudad Rodrigo, Spain for fighting against the French for the Spanish Crown. Arthur Charles Valerian Wellesley, 9th Duke of Wellington and his son Arthur Wellesley, Earl of Mornington are the heads of this family and both taking the name Arthur like the King Arthur who wielded the sword Excalibur. The Jewish Sarno family were from Missouri and founded Caesars Palace as agents of the Kansas City crime family of Missouri. September Sarno is a member of this family and she is a banker along with her brothers Freddie Sarno and Jay Sarno Jr. Oscar Goodman is a mafia lawyer that defended Meyer Lansky, Nicky Scarfo, and Frank Rosenthal. Oscar Goodman was also the former mayor of Las Vegas from 1999 to 2011. Meyer Lansky III is the grandson of Lansky and he operates in Vegas today as a top Jewish mobster in the US. Oscar Goodman’s wife Carolyn Goodman is the current mayor of Las Vegas. The Goodmans are criminal associates of Cosa Nostra and have been governing Las Vegas from 1999 up till today.
Nice analogue.
That rake handle ain’t making it past that Big Mac of a gut of his!
Donnie can’t learn from his mueller investigation.
You hear that? No one is above the law!
“Wrong!” – t’rump and the republicans
@Ro G ….snowflake
Lol….what exactly does a partisan vote have to do with the law?
@john smith Fun fact: t’rump is the biggest most fragile snowflake ever – reacting like a clown on twitter every time his feelings are hurt.
Too bad most t’rump supporters are too dumb to see that! 😄😆😅😂
“Crazy Rudy & Dementia Don”
Coming 2020 to a prison near you!
Rudy can lie all day long to the news, it’s not illegal just scummy. Trump aka Individual One is an Unindicted Coconspirator in Cohen’s felony charges…
Can’t wait to see Rudy in the Prison Theater production of HELLO DOLLY !! 😶
Richard Hunt hahahahaha or the old Zero Mostel number “Prisoners in Love.” (The Producers, Mel Brookes).
@Graham Campbell YESSSSSS !!
sounds like steam escaping !! 😝
What y’all think will happen when Donald realizes that Rudy was playing him the entire time? lol
ch7432 what you say could be true, but ghouliani is one corrupt mfer just like his client, trumpanzee.
He will hit the crack pipe once again. And then start his soap dropping exercises.
ch7432 ghouliani is NOT the brightest bulb,more a dimwit.
Number 1 Guiliani is too stupid to play anyone and 2. Trump is too stupid to ever realise he has been played
Trump is testing the boundaries of what he can get away with, and hoping manipulation of the masses will give him enough support. Americans unfortunately have created a system of government where it is possible that a lawless tyrant could obtain the reigns of power and keep them without consequence. Trump has proved that in fact the republic is not governed by laws, but by weight of personality, manipulation and deceit. This is not possible in some other democracies, because the President/Prime Minister does not start with that much power.
I think you give him too much credit. He keeps admitting things simply because he’s a braggart by nature. He does illegal things but he’s so proud of the end results, he can’t help to tell the world about what he did and how great he is. He’s such an insecure person that he has to constantly stroke his own ego by bragging about any little thing he can, even if the entire process of the achievement was illegal. After going decades of not being fact-checked, the idea of anybody questioning his truth is an afterthought. Nobody questioned him for years because he was just a businessman. Now he’s president.
End the Trump Crime Family Syndicate.
Prison for all of them.
And yet Trump was just found innocent. Try harder.
Everybody knows the cowards in the Senate won’t vote to impeach…but for the history books, we need to get the names of the cowards who didn’t step up to protect America!
Yes , I agree 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Lol, the constitution gives the Senate removal authority to prevent what the Democrats are attempting which is a partisan coup. The house has no say over it either.
Real Moscow Mitch McConnell will be voted out this Nov. 2019 in Kentucky and no longer in charge.
@Lily Jade: What? Please explain.
Pelosi had no choice 45 has been going against the norms and breaking the laws since day one.
And the Senate will put her in her place.
Repugs don’t play fair, they started cheating with G.W.Bush 2nd term, Trump asked Russia for help on Clinton, and attempted to do the same with Ukraine on Biden. He thinks he’s invincible.
It’s simple Trump is impeachable, Obama was not
This was way overdue. Godspeed!
Abuse of power
Quid pro quo
Whistleblower is hostage.
Ambassador Rudy, attorney for the guilty? It’s subjugationr of perjury. Being told to abuse the power of the president by the state dept?
Guiliani should be locked up since he broke the law by reaching out to Zelensky when he has no power to act as a govt staff member. IF for some reason the whistle blower report is withheld further, it’s Treason which carries a death penalty.
I wonder why people say things like that. Treason requires one of two things; 1) You must levy war against the government or 2) you have provided aid and comfort to the enemy, an enemy. You have a right to feel that it ought to be treason, but that doesn’t change the law.
Fun fact, it also has to be a *declared* enemy. As in a declaration of war, or hostilities. Rudy’s activities are very very criminal, but they do not meet the bar for treason.
Look up “constructive treason” and why the founders were careful to define treason narrowly.
Trump needs to step down. He needs to realize he is an absolute disgrace,
A Clem trumpanzee needs to step up and turn himself into the SDNY and face the upcoming charges as outlined in the MuelleR REPORT and MUCH MORE to ensure that Dotard spends the rest of his life locked up in a max security prison
Trump and his supporters are the largest terrorist threat to America.
Jeff Allen You are a terrorist
@Frederick Martinez Snowflake says what??
*IF THEY DON’T IMPEACH, IT WILL BE A DERELICTION OF DUTY.*
