The burden of proof is on Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam B. Schiff (D-Burbank) to do more than secure impeachment, which is all but certain.


That’s the key point. While it is enjoyable to see Ratcliffe dunk on Schiff all day it won’t change the outcome in the House.

I still question whether they can come up with one or more articles that will pass the house.

They are looking mighty flimsy right now and I suspect some house Dims are getting quite nervous.

If their big show continues to bomb, they may not be able to muster a majority over something trivial, warranted, or untrue.

Though, no doubt, Democrat moderates/vulnerables will have a gun to their heads expecting/forcing them to vote with the majority in the House for impeachment regardless of evidence or testimony, Trump's acquittal in the Senate will serve to punish ALL the Democrats as well as the Deep State denizens for their blatant political coup attempt for years to come.

Does anyone think Pelosi will come to her senses and put a stop to it all before it goes that far? I know their entire aim was to bloody up Trump for next year's election, but they HAVE to know it will only embolden his base and win more sensible people to his side. Schiff and Nancy will go down in history as the ones who almost single-handedly destroyed the Democrat party. Of course, they could decide after the hearings to NOT vote for impeachment because of lack of evidence and it's over. That's the only way I see they can go and retain any semblance of propriety and honor. It's the only way they might save face before the American people though I'd be delighted to see them all crash and burn. That party has veered so far left they have lost their right minds!

Impeachment is preordained.

Facts and events and testimony are therefore irrelevant.

how ever........ there is talk if rank and file congressional democrats get cold feet it might not happen.
