The White House and Republicans pushed back on Monday at Sen. Chuck Schumers proposal to call witnesses - including former national security adviser John Bolton and acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney - to testify at President Trumps expected impeachment trial in the Senate.
Let us hope that fairness will prevail a laughable quote from @SenSchumer this AM .after the dems release an impeachment report in the middle of the night, White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham wrote on Twitter. Thankfully the people of this country continue to see the partisan sham that this is.
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), who would serve as a juror in the Senate impeachment trial against Trump, said Democrats had their chance to call Bolton and Mulvaney during their investigation in the House that led to two articles of impeachment - for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

Looks like all Schiffty had to do was to advance the narrative with secret testimony and no witnesses. I wouldn't be surprised if 'new' allegations pop up in the next few weeks.
Around 2040, historians will go back to this ‘shifty-era’ and discuss how all of this control and marginalization gutted public trust. People will ask...how did these people screw up so badly, and there just won’t be any answer.
Now add Democrat, Chuck Schumer to the ever growing list of human butt wipes, along with Democrats, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Jerrold Nadler, etc.,......you gotta be kidding me....And, all of them led by none other then Democrat, Ex-POTUS, Barack “Magic Wand, Criminal” Hussein Obama. Go figure....The Democrat Party dies by the action of its own hand, as day by day passes!!!
Tremendous, POTUS, Trump “Merry Christmas” Campaign Rally, tomorrow evening being held in Battle Creek, Michigan in the Kellogg Arena (Capacity, 12,500 people) commencing at 7:00 PM (CST) Attendees expected, 12,500-25,000 people!!! Be there to support our great POTUS, Donald J. Trump & VP, Mike Pence!!!
Democrats couldnt wait... this is all driven by politics and it needed to get done now.
Details are unimportant - they can always be filled in later. The important thing is Trump gets impeached.
If something could be released indicating criminality now, this could be stopped!
Massively frustrating...
Central to their con job was ginning up a rage against the President with lies and absurd fabrications supported by a full court media propaganda blitz.
Going to court to try to compel testimony from people under executive privilege would have been unsuccessful and would have given the public time to cool of and think about things, both of which would have spoiled the Democrat con job
Barry’s tried both so we’ll give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.
Funny now they plead for fairness
The Rats start this hoax to deny us peasants the right to vote, apparently our leaders must be selected now by the nomenklatura and all election results for POTUS annulled unless a Rat is elected. And THEY are complaining about “fairness”?? What the???
I would have simply told Schumer to pound sand.....karma mofo, it has a way of coming around yo.
Re Durham. Timing might be better if he releases info closer to the election
You may be right but I feel that the "deep state", unelected bureaucrats, will not let the Democrat Party or the democrats fail.
They fear the light and after Trump wins 2020, the attacks will go up exponentially.
They have to smear or kill him or face another republican president in 2024.
That's why the obstruction bit won't work...the failure is on their part
They're just playing a game. They already know the Senate (at the present time) isn't planning on calling any witnesses.
In my opinion, only one person should be called....and that's the whistle blower. His identity is an absolute must. This iscalling for the removal of the President of the United States.....not some CEO of a chem company dumping poison into a river.
Barr said not until Spring/Summer...so May/June/July???
As a shitty Jew ex NYer I ask, who and what religion run the House?
He said spring/summer, that’s code for “maybe after the election”.
