As I said on another thread, the Democrats are setting up their next attack: the claim that the acquittal of President Trump is not legitimate because the Senate Trial was bogus due to not having any witnesses approved by the House Impeachment Managers. . . despite the House of Democrats not giving the President due process or the right to call witnesses in their Kangaroo Court impeachment hearsayings first in the SCIF bunker under Schiff, then later in the public show parade of pre-screened hearsayers before the Intelligence Committee’s hearsaying, and then even later in the Judiciary Committee Rubberstamp Parade of Scholarly Regurgitation of Democrat Talking Points. Not once was there an opportunity for the President’s side or even the Republican’s to present fact witnesses to rebut anything presented by the hearsayers of the Democrats.

Nor was the President EVER given the opportunity to face his primary accuser as the Sixth Amendment guarantees to every accused person. Instead, that accuser was hidden by those he talked to and one he talked to ran the inquisition.

Agree....Dems don't want witnesses.

I believe the Dems have designated Senators to make sure it doesn't happen.

The GOP should hold a vote on whether to let the Dems call Bolton and the President to call his 4 witnesses. See how many Dems actually vote for more witnesses if they know Biden and the whistleblower will have to testify.

The Democrats are HIGHLY fearful that Joe Biden, his son Hunter Biden and even Barack Obama will be called as witnesses. It would backfire on the Left in a literal blink of an eye.

Democrats are lying to the American people when they claim the Senate trial is not a trial if there are no witnesses or documents. They showed videotape of 17 witnesses and introduced thousands of pages of documents in the Senate! What part of “witnesses and documents” do they not understand?

“Democrats are setting up their next attack: the claim that the acquittal of President Trump is not legitimate because the Senate Trial was bogus due to not having any witnesses approved by the House Impeachment Managers.”

Any Republican with a single functioning brain cell would have known to dismiss this farce immediately. The House didn’t even perform the required vote to open the process.

Dems were gong to say the above either way, so why go through all this torture?

Republicans are cowardly fools and America pays the price for that over and over again.

I totally agree. I am sitting here wondering why McConnell hasn’t just called the vote. We could have been done with this so that President Trump’s SOTU on Tuesday could have gone on without them being able to say he is still impeached.

They don’t want Alexandra ‘Ali’ Chalupa to be called, or Evelyn Farkas to be called on Burisma...

Everything the dems do or touch becomes dirty.

This whole “impeachment” was, is and always will be, about the 2020 election. They know that none of the clown car candidates that they have can beat Trump in a fair fight, so they have to try to either knock him out of the race altogether, or weaken him to such an extent that the American people will settle for whatever clown they put on the ballot.

“Abuse of power” and “obstruction of congress” were never sexy issues to start with.

The time for all these permutations has past. The naked Truth has been laid bare for all to see. The Democrat party is the party of the New World Order. This is a globalist kabal to bring an end to human freedom. This is a vision to attain absolute power, and to use it to completely destroy any other entities, even if it means the murder of billions of innocent men, women, and children. The “deplorables”. If you are among the remnant that still loves the G-d of the Bible, then, it is you who must be restrained, oppressed and, if necessary killed. This is not a joke. Their contempt for you is constantly drilled into the minds of your children, in the schools, the media, in Hollywood films, late night TV, academia, and the universal de facto ban on the biblical world view. They have their hands around your neck and your children’s souls they are smothering under the “soft pillow” of total censorship. Can you defend the ideals and values that came from the Bible? Those values brought forth the glory of Western Civilization. Beauty, Science, Art and invention, and most of all a Social Order of incredible Freedom, without that freedom leading to chaos. How could this be? Torah! The Bible; the truth of man’s unique value, being made “in the image of God” lead the west to enshrine human rights beyond the reach of the State. The veracity and the rightness of the western canon Law is built on the Torah, the Word of G-d. Torah is the enemy of this global elitism and the Left is totally committed to destroy it. Will we let them?

The House is given the sole power to IMPEACH - the Senate is given the sole power to try the IMPEACHMENT. The Senate has tried the House’s Impeachment and found it lacking. Too bad the Impeachment cant be thrown out

“Republicans are cowardly fools and America pays the price for that over and over again.”

Darn right. Like with Blasey-Ford, they allowed the full show trial and narrowly voted it down.

Beautiful Americans, my fellow Americans:

Our sons, fathers, uncles, friends have been put in kill or be killed situations on battlefields.

Our daughters, moms, nieces, aunties have been degraded, dehumanized, raped by Hollywood and evil individuals.

Our hardwork, kindness, goodwill, honor has been destroyed by kickback/extortion schemes called “foreign aide” to further enrich evil “representatives” and their families and friends.

All the while our time of life is cut short and wasted by debt/tax slavery.

Unfortunately, I believe you are correct. It is sad to see a nation that had such high morals in its beginning, to now be led by people only concerned with their ownselves.

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

John Adams”
