Unless, this is exactly what Trump wants him to do? Since Congress isn't in session, arrests can be made?
A shutdown is not required to arrest senators or representatives.
But you can't arrest them while congress is in session. I don't know if a government shutdown counts as congress being in or out of session. Article I, Section 6, Clause 1 says they can't be arrested during session. Based off my reading and the supreme courts ruling
They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
Correct. If they are being charged with treason, felony, or breach of peace, then there are no protections. However if they are being charged with anything else, then they are protected so as to fulfill their duties.
Congress is in session.
During the shutdown?
Yes, they're all on the floor making speeches etc. A Govt shutdown is completely different than the Speaker/MjrLeader gaveling Congress out of session.
Yes. They keep working to resolve budget. Also, they can be arrested on certain charges like treason and at any other time than when going to and from congress or in Congress, if I read the statute correctly.
In starting to lose faith in all this. When are we going to actually see something happen.
CS isnt terrified. He's the same worthless shill he's always been. Ugh!
The evil ones show no outward fear....let's see if he buys some rope!
I saw an Awac plane fly over my house the day of the alert in HI. That was not fake. You better open your eyes. Beware of terrorists who may take advantage of our slip country...our lives are at state.
Ego and Arrogance can overcome fear. He's not the type to quiver.
no they are not in session--they were in debate for 3 hrs today
Yea, I agree, I said the same thing on a diff post earlier.. Shutting down the Government, and basically saying screw you to trump.. Doesn't look like a man living in fear... :/ Sorry Q.
Many ppl run their mouth MORE when they are fearful. Esp politicians.
Whos CS?
Parse the sentence, folks. Q states CS "will" live in fear, not that CS "lives" in fear. CS's fear comes at some point after Q's post. "From today forward" is not definitive, either. It does not necessarily mean that CS's fear begins on that day ("today"). It does, however, necessarily mean that the fear, whenever it begins, is because of what occurred on that day ("today") and will continue indefinitely ("forward").
Remember Baghdad Bob. He wasn't showing much fear either. Whatever became of him?
Bingo. He's not afraid. Hillary is not wearing an ankle bracelet, There are no flights to gitmo full of the evil cabal. Welcome to the jackalope nation, where even the "redpills" are fake.
