Senate Impeachment Trial LIVE - day 4
Over and over again, we read and hear that the Biden/Burisma corruption idea has been debunked. Why haven’t the House managers presented any evidence of that being debunked? They just say it over and over, and expect that to be the evidence. They have enough time, let’s see the reports from the Ukraine government that debunked it. Let’s see the reports from the US government. Instead, their plan seems to be just to say it so much that we’ll just believe it because they say so.
Problem: When the spinoff series comes on Saturday (Trump's Side Strikes Back) no one will see it. Next week people will say "I heard Trump is worse than Nixon. Yeah, obvious he has to be removed. No one said anything to the contrary."
If only we had free, honest journalists on TV and news sites. Instead of propaganda shills.
Listening to Lindsey Graham live on Fox News (on YouTube) now. It says it’s live.
Graham is great. Going on and on about how no one HAS looked at the Bidens and someone SHOULD look at the Bidens.
Live: Lindsey Graham, Senate GOP to hold press conference
Right now.

It has not been debunked because it has not been investigated!
The leftists say repeatedly the Biden corruption was “debunked” and the Russia Mueller findings were “highly disturbing” and “show Trump’s guilt.” None of that is true.
They face no media scrutiny or “fact checking” except to agree with them.
Totally Big Lie repetition.
LOL! The MeTV website has a message posted apologizing to viewers for their affiliate stations who have opted to preempt their reruns in order to carry impeachment coverage.
President Trump’s Dream Team begin their response tomorrow.

On Saturday, when few are watching.
Great strategy there Mitch.
They’ll take a break on Sunday, resume on Monday and wrap up on Tuesday.
Both sides will have six days. Then senators get 16 hours to submit written questions and after that is a vote on whether to hear witnesses.
After that will be a vote on the articles and on acquitting the President.
“...it is bad form if your son hooks up with a corrupt ukraine company and turns that corrupt ukraine company into an ATM machine...”
Apparently, one of the PACS put Biden’s boast on the billboard in Times Square. This could get fun.
after that is a vote on whether to hear witnesses

Another opportunity for Republicans to lose. They should have dismissed this outrageous travesty on day one.
This sham is damaging the country and our institutions of self-government. It is also running roughshod over our fundamental belief in innocent until proven guilty.
Yet the Republican senate is legitimizing this kangaroo court. They once again dodged their solemn responsibility to uphold our laws and preserve some semblance of integrity and confidence in our government.
The votes to dismiss the articles of impeachment weren’t there.
And the President’s Dream Team feels confident in being able to take apart the House Managers’ case.
The President wants, needs and deserves his day in court. Its called due process, stupid.
"“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
Joseph Goebbels.....
Yes, precisely!
The Dems have Joseph Goebbels tactic of dissemination of LIES down, perfectly.

I think you’re missing the point. The “court” has been nothing but a kangaroo court in the first place. The House case is a complete sham based on outright lies, heresay, and unconstitutional articles. And perhaps worst of all, THEY VIOLATED ALL PAST PROCEDURES AND DENIED TRUMP DUE PROCESS.
The senate is dignifying this complete travesty. No less than Alan Dershowitz (a noted scholar of United States constitutional law and criminal law) has said the senate should have dismissed the case right away. I think he knows a little more about the process than you do.
It depends who has the debit card.
If it had been a Republican, OMG that would be bad!
If it had been Trump, OMG that would be bad!
If it’s a Democrat or Biden... that’s been debunked.
