What galls me is so many people are falling for their false theories and allegations even with proof POTUS did not engage in what they are accusing him of doing.
I hope the tables are turned on these demons.
They’ll just turn down the subpoenas or take the fifth plain and simple!
“despite his threats”
Snarky article. In what sense is it a threat? Could Pelosi, et al hurt themselves by speaking to the Senate? How?
This should not be all. Schiff has established it is permissible to demand phone records of Congresspeople AND members of the press. Trump should instruct the DoJ to immediately demand production of the phone records and emails of schiff, Nadler and every NYTimes and WaPo so-called journalist who has “broken” stories quoting unreleased documents.
They’ll just lie.
Can’t TRUMP take it to court where they will rule he MUST comply? Take it to the judge, the dems HATE that!
Even if they are called, they will please the 5th.
**************
They probably will but their refusal to be forthright will look like they’re hiding something and this will benefit Trump.
You see Democrats don’t need no stinking law to obey, they are the law ..haven’t y’all noticed!
Good point. Pretty much negates the whole concept of a trial.
“”””””Schiff has already said he will not testify.””””””
So isn’t that obstruction of justice?
Trump should, and most likely will, frame this trial as the impeachment of House Democrats by We The People, with our verdict to be rendered on November 3, 2020.
And that’s exactly what it is, as we must hold them all accountable for this attempted coup.
Yeah, pleading the 5th can lead to disaster. That doesn’t mean senators can’t still ask questions and make accusations. Like:
Q”Are you involved in a plot to overthrow the constitution of the united state?
A”I plead the 5th”
Q “Have you ever been on Jeffery Epstein’s plane to pedophile island.
A. “I plead the 5th.”
LOL
Republicans hold the majority in the Senate and Trump allies hold chairmanships on key committees, with many of them signaling their interest in exploring issues that House Democrats glossed over during their hearings — such as the Bidens’ business dealings in Ukraine and alleged Ukraine interference in the 2016 presidential election.
Except they will ignore the request and by the time it goes through courts it will be years.
Love it!!
Sounds good, but I wouldn’t trust Mitch, Romney, and Schumer to set up fair rules.
