“The president is supposed to move forward and they will. The Senate is supposed to take the action and they will — it’s their constitutional right and they are following through,” he told reporters at a press briefing on Wednesday.
“And I will make you this one promise, listening to the Speaker on television this weekend, if she tries to move for an impeachment based upon the president following the Constitution, I think there will be a move on the floor to no longer have the question of her being Speaker. She may think she has a quiver — we do too,” he added.

BREAKING NOW: Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Passes Away at the Age of 87
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away Friday at the age of 87.
The liberal leader was nominated to the bench by President Bill Clinton back in 1993.
“Her first major opinion as a justice came in 1996 when she wrote the majority decision in United States v. Virginia. The ruling struck down the Virginia Military Institute’s 157-year-old policy of male-only admissions as unconstitutional, and set a stricter legal standard for government action that treats men and women differently,” reports The Hill.
