I HATE Trump going in there on Tuesday without the acquittal. What I’d like him to do is reschedule so that he removes one source of what the House is going to do to try to humiliate him.

some good things happened today my fellow Qs
Jay Sekulow making a great point here: he’s going to demand the right to cross-examine all the witnesses who testified in the House (which Democrats did not allow
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Awesome job by Jay
I will grant that to Collins this time - as long as she votes to acquit after voting to have witnesses. After all, by saying she wants to hear witnesses, she’s admitting defacto that the case was not proven and cannot return the equivalent of a guilty verdict.
ON THE FLOOR - Chuck made a parliamentary inquiry to Chief Justice - I missed the end of the exchange ... anybody have details please? ThankQ :)

Maybe the same everywhere ... I hope.
BTW, it's so annoying that the Senate blowhards (including Republicans, apparently) are delaying the final ACQUITTAL until next Wednesday ... for more bloviating.

Well, dad-gum-it. That stinks. (EyeRoll) They should have closing on Saturday-adjust Monday and Tuesday to allow the vote on Tuesday afternoon at the latest. I know we’ll all be glad to see this sham-show shut down ASAP.
that schedule omits the Sunday morning BOMBSHELL by Devlin Barrett or other DS friendly reporter that somebody overheard John Bolton at a deli in DC saying he said that he wanted extra mustard and the ambassador to Ukraine was heard to say that he thought the OMB wanted the aid withheld a day before previously reported.
Vidya starts at 17 (ahhh knowww) on the countdown and is 45 secs long.

I believe the country is going to be astounded in November Trump supporters are LYING to pollsters BECAUSE they have been called everything in the book, they have been driven underground by the MSM!!! I believe it is going to be an OH SHIT moment for all of these BASTARDS and I believe we absolutely get the house back AND possibly gain seats in the senate!!! Trumps support is growing everyday these IDIOTS are beyond stupid they all live in a bubble AND never get out to find out what is really going on out here in the REAL AMERICA!!!
I’m a little confused on the motion process occurring right now - before Chad Pergram said that the DEMs expected they’d have another round like they did before things got going and all the DEMs were submitting motions that each had 2 hours of House Impeachment clowns bloviating ... but that’s not what’s happening now - they’re on the third vote in rapid succession. Witnesses? Tabled (53-47). Bolton? Tabled (51-49) ... Bolton with deposition before Chief Justice within 5 days? pending ... this might exhaust Chuck of motions pretty quickly. TBD ;)
Harvey Weinstein accuser: Mogul lacks male genitalia
The first time I saw him fully naked, she told the court, according to the report. I thought he was deformed and intersex He does not have testicles, and it appears that he has a vagina.
Yes, I am confused too. And my parliamentary procedures knowledge is weak. In some cases, a motion tabled, if not taken from the table before adjournment is dead.
I am not happy that the Pubbies aren’t going to get this over with before the SOTU address. spit.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Schumer asked if the Chief Justice Roberts knew that there were tie-breaker votes cast by the Chief in certain questions on the Johnson impeachment (in 1868).
Roberts said "Yes" he was aware, and had decided these "Votes" by the Chief on a couple of minor points ... such as an adjournment, DID NOT constitute a precedent for him to participate in this way.
Then Schumer called ANOTHER vote on Bolton etc. ... which I thought was already dispensed with in the earlier vote today.
Sigh.
#327 sorry if I didn’t express myself properly.
I think as a employee they are required to cooperate in Investigations or risk being fired.
Once the leave, they are free to take the fifth
They’re trying a hail mary now - motion to turn over all remaining document & witness subpoenas decisions to Chief Justice
ThankQ!

I believe that was Mark Levin’s belief and it’s actually good that distinction was made and put on the record.
I am far from knowing legal ins and outs; but I assume that quitting will not render her not criminally liable for any crimes committed. She was no angel in Ukraine, and no doubt her previous posts, either.
