Senate Impeachment Trial LIVE

[cowboyusa]

Schumer drooed the bolton suponea now.

Here is an interesting view of the impact of Trump aid to Ukraine. It includes the issue of effective lethal aid to them. I am sure that Putin is happy to know that—

“Under the rules of the sale, the Javelin missiles have to be stored in western Ukraine, which is far from the frontlines of the ongoing conflict in the eastern part of the country (the Donbas region) against pro-Russia separatists. In short, the Javelins were essentially provided to Ukraine under the condition that they not be used in the conflict zone.” [which happens to be in the east side of Ukraine]

Nadler might be even more delusional than Schifty. Hard to imagine.

[goldstategop]

Now Nadler up.

[TigersEye]

They’re bringing Pence into this.

If they push that any further not only will the Dems appear nakedly partisan but they will reveal that this is a naked power play. I don't think the Senate will want any part of that.

I know the American people will go ballistic.

[redshawk]

Should schummer bring that up. ..the repubs should not take the bait, need too hold firm.

[lodi90]

That’s Dem spin and total nonsense. The javelins are far more secure in the western part of the country.

[palmer]

On C-Span during the break the C-Span guy said that Senators are allowed to have water or milk.

[PerConPat]

I think you are correct...it will fail...but I don’t trust Mr. Mittens...this is a great chance to grandstand.

[redshawk]

Nads said if you don’t vote for Bolton then you’re part of the coverup.

[palmer]

Nadler is a delusional liar. Either learned from Schiff or might be his own. He seems to have "forgotten" that he rejected the amendments to House 660 to allow due process for the Prez. Now he says there was due process. Uh no, Nads, you are lying and you know it.

[rainee]

Remember the 80’s show Dynasty?
I think their costume designer is now employed by Nadler’s shoulderpads.

[PerConPat]

Great point...

[gleeaikin]

That is exactly my point. The javelins are secure in the western part of the country, and the Russian tanks are secure far away in the eastern part of the country where they are killing Ukrainian soldiers. Are you another Putin supporter???

[hsmomx3]

I always thought Schiff created this whistle-blower and it’s all fake.

[lodi90]

The Dems are grandstanding tonight because they figure the most people will be watching the first day. Ratings will trail off. Nobody is watching this circus every day for a week so the Dems are trying to get their cheap shots in quick today.

[palmer]

Yep, just said it again.

[rainee]

Milk from the bottle or tit? Ha

[goldstategop]

Nadler just insulted every GOP senator, accusing them of being part of a coverup! Such finesse.

Thanks, Jerrold.

[hsmomx3]

Milk....ick. I would need a lot of iced coffees.
