Color me confused. Is Schiff now trying to hide behind the fact that the House subpoenas were illegal in order to explain why the didn’t get Bolton to testify after he allegedly refused....

Is it constitutional to remove a POTUS for legitimately asking a foreign power to do something beneficial for the US that might also be helpful to the POTUS politically as well?
Answer: NO.

Now we know why there are no rebuttals permitted. And why the questions had to be submitted in advance.

This whole thing is not as intelligent and worthy or wise as my eighth grade debates at Shady Side Academy back in 1960.
This format is a disgrace.

I think Schiff already knows he is bound for hell when he diesHow many senators or congressmen do you suppose believe in God?
To: Sam Gamgee
Our side doesn't have to limit their questions to our people.

The only answer to the question of how did they know what the question is to have a video ready.....
the House managers and the Senators colluded.
But I’m not sure if that wasn’t alright.
But as Schitt often says, “I don’t think that is alright!”

This whole setup is a JOKE!

If the answers he receives are not to his liking, those veins in his neck and his eyes will burst.
He’s such an angry beast.

Schiff is wrong. There is always the next election to do something about it.
Expediency is no defense for shortcutting the process and making the Senate do it in trial.

I think maybe 10% are 100% sure there is no God and therefore they will be little more than food for worms. I bet 60% would never admit it, but personally are not sure, and would normally hedge their bets in one way or another, by at least from time to time try to be decent human beings.
To: McGavin999
I think they requested and he refused and then joined Cuppermand request to have the court rule.Then it was an odd question from a GOP senator.
To: Parley Baer
They want to drag out the trial because they believe it would hurt the President in the polls. Plus, they want to stop his successes.

It sounds to me like this is more Schiff talking and taking up most of the 8 hours today.

This format is only giving Adam Shiff a free air time to send messages ahead for media fraud.

I was thinking Bolton couldn’t testify due to Executive Privilege at the beginning. He possibly COULD HAVE testified if the House Managers had taken it to court. But that would have taken too much time, and the lazy-ass RATs didn’t want to wait.
(I could be wrong.)
