"Unfortunately, the Republicans are choosing party over country. It is a sorrowful thing. Democrats have realized that we need to move forward and heal as country. Our founding fathers would want us to do this. The Democrats have chosen patriotism over party. American KNOW how corrupt Trump is and are smart enough to vote as needed. God bless America!"
BTW,if there is a Trial in the Senate,all the Dem-Senators who are running for POTUS have to attend the Trial,no running around the Country campaigning until that little matter is taken care of! Should put a Crimp in some of their activities!

In his response to the announcement of charges by Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit on Thursday evening, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that he believes the attorney general caved to pressure by State Attorney Shai Nitzan, who completes his term next month.
The full indictment released by the Justice Ministry indicates that the prime minister is to be charged with fraud and breach of trust in Cases 1000 and 2000, and bribery, fraud and breach of trust in Case 4000.
In remarks that were televised following the announcement by the attorney general, Netanyahu said that he deeply respects the justice system in Israel, but “you have to be blind not to see that something bad is happening to police investigators and the prosecution. We’re seeing an attempted coup by the police with false accusations” made against him, he said.
The “tainted investigation process, including inventing new crimes, has reached its apex today,” he said. “This tainted process raises questions in the public about the police investigations and the prosecution. The public has lost trust in these institutions. It’s a process that has taken place over many years. This is selective enforcement on steroids. It’s enforcement just for me,” he said.
Netanyahu also called to establish an independent commission of inquiry to probe the conduct of investigators who worked on his cases, urging Israelis to demand, “Investigate the investigators.”
“It’s time to investigate the investigators, to investigate the prosecution that approves these tainted investigations. I respect the police, I respect the prosecutors. There are hundreds of them. But we have to understand that they’re not above criticism. This isn’t just about transparency, it’s about accountability.”
The prime minister, who has served at his post the longest in the nation’s history, rejected calls by opponents to resign in order to deal with the indictments.
“My sense of justice burns within me,” Netanyahu said.
“I cannot believe that the country I fought for and was wounded for, that I’ve brought to such achievements … that in this country, in its democracy, there will be this kind of tainted justice, of selective enforcement.
“I won’t let the lie win. I will continue to lead this country with devotion. For this country, for the rule of law, for justice, we have to do one thing: to finally investigate the investigators.”
The right to vote is a consequence, not a primary cause, of a free social system—and its value depends on the constitutional structure implementing and strictly delimiting the voters’ power; unlimited majority rule is an instance of the principle of tyranny.
A majority vote is not an epistemological validation of an idea. Voting is merely a proper political device—within a strictly, constitutionally delimited sphere of action—for choosing the practical means of implementing a society’s basic principles. But those principles are not determined by vote.
Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority.
The citizens of a free nation may disagree about the specific legal procedures or methods of implementing their rights (which is a complex problem, the province of political science and of the philosophy of law), but they agree on the basic principle to be implemented: the principle of individual rights. When a country’s constitution places individual rights outside the reach of public authorities, the sphere of political power is severely delimited—and thus the citizens may, safely and properly, agree to abide by the decisions of a majority vote in this delimited sphere. The lives and property of minorities or dissenters are not at stake, are not subject to vote and are not endangered by any majority decision; no man or group holds a blank check on power over others.
