They have three of the four needed, Collins, Romney, Murkowsky, who will be #4?

Alexander or Burr possibly, both are retiring.

"He also alleged Trump also told Bolton that he wanted to keep withholding congressionally approved military aid to Ukraine to try to force officials there to open investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and Biden’s son Hunter Biden."

If that's true the President apparently changed his mind. Maybe he was studying Bolton to see how he would react.

President Trump was merely trying to undo the 0bama/Biden/Clinton Quid Pro Quo.

The truth is any Republican Senator who acts like this matters hasn’t been listening to the number of Democrat fails and Trump wins.

Romney,Collins,etc your game is up. Choose your hurt.

How does anyone know what Bolton's allegation is? So far all we have is the NYT or some other fake news site quoting an anonymous source who knows someone who knows someone.

I have always been kind of a Bolton fan. I find it hard to believe he will make up something that contradicts the factual evidence everyone already has.

That doesn't mean anyone should vote to bring in witnesses.

Even if the allegations are true there is nothing illegal about this.

Sanders and Warren could vote for no witnesses just to get it over with and get back on with their campaigning. That would be a hoot.

Who cares? Since when is quid pro quo a criminal act? Every transaction in life is a quid pro quo.

We need to hear the truth.”

What. You think Bolton is lying? That President Trump didn't really want to withhold the aid?

You have to just hand it to the left for their chutzpah. I mean Hillary did the deed, but didn't have the intent (so they say). President Trump had the intent, but didn't do the deed. And it is Trump that they want to call on the carpet.

I want to do my taxes. I tell my accountant that I want to write off my Maserati payments as a business expense. He talks me out of it. Should I go to jail for thinking about committing tax fraud? Jeez Louise.

He might if he wanted to screw the democrats with a review copy of a manuscript subject to editing knowing it would be leaked.

LOL, I’d like to see Klobuchar, Sanders and Warren vote against witnesses. At this point their Depends are permanently soiled. They are probably off the scale with extreme anxiety and I love it!!!

Now that would be humor.

Are the four or five actually going to side with Schmukie and creeps like Blumenthal over their own party?

After Dershowitz’s talk last night, I can see them deciding they don’t need any more witnesses because he made it clear the articles are unconstitutionally vague and that if every word about Bolton is true it means zilch because it also would not be impeachable...
