Fine. Start with the Mittens’ campaign aide who worked for Burisma.

Yeah and on and on and.. months later the call for a secret ballot.

“Trump’s defense, which was excellent, was all for naught. The blurry Times leak sunk it all without a trace. Just goes to show the dull, gutless, puerile minds illuminating some GOP senators.
The democrats can out-maneuver the Republicans with a twitch of their little finger. The Republican majority is now Schiff’s bitch.”

That’s about the size of it. Mitch the *itch works for the Leviathan - not the People.

WASHINGTON—Republican leaders said they don’t CURRENTLY have enough votes to block witnesses.

Dont they have a whole day set aside to debate that issue on Friday?

If he doesnt have the votes..just skip that debate and move on to a witness plan that that has at least 51 GOP senators on board

Subpoena Romney’s/Burisma’s Black,

whistleblower. Then Shiff-for-brains.

Except the Senators can’t speak in the Senate chambers during the trial, and nobody is watching the trial anyway. This is surely NOT an opportunity for grandstanding. The proof of this is that I’ve heard hardly a peep from Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders in the last two weeks ... and they’re running for PRESIDENT.

No, they still don’t. If anyone’s most accurate, it’s OANN.

One thing we have learned from Trump’s election is that pretty much a bunch who works inside the beltway are involved in money laundering schemes.

I want an investigation of every congress critters, their kids, and their families foundations!!!!

If we could rid ourselves of the inefficiency and waste our tax rate would be a fraction of it is now. But that is just a fantasy.

I can’t stand Washington D.C.

This will set a very bad precedent for future Impeachments.

We must insist they HOLD THE VOTE and put everyone on record!

We know the Senate can only Subpoena via majority vote. But that’s not what I’m talking about.

Hold the vote to acquit at the conclusion of opening presentations.

See who fails the test.

Then we can completely destroy their career.

This is for all the marbles, the most important vote any of them will ever take. We can’t let them be slimeball toilet scum without shining a light on them.

He is the one who the good people of Utah said, via their votes, they wanted to represent them in the Senate of the United States of America. If they love and adore him so much,how can you, in good conscience cast aspersions in his direction?

Why didn’t Lindsey Graham just promise them he’ll have hearings on Bolton in the future?

It’s good enough to shovel that to Republicans, but not the Dems?

I agree. I’ll vote for POTUS Trump and have to think hard about voting for any of the trash down ballot. We are screwed as a country, better to end it now and pick up the pieces if theres anything left. Never thought I’d be saying this but I am done with them.

SHEIT!

he can’t handle his caucus?????

its UNCONSTITUTIONAL for the jury (Senate) to try to save the prosecution’s (House) failed case by reaching out and creating or finding new evidence.

Dear Senator McConnell, I bet you can get the McShame type “R” members to follow Constitutional law! Talk with them, pull them off committees (where they frequently make tons of extra money), publicly shame them as may be needed, but reign them into proper procedure and let’s END their “grand-standing” and this sickening failed fake ‘impeachment’ krap NOW!
