An impeachment based on hurt feelings and assumptions. Sheesh. They are pitiful.

Ken Starr just said that this testimony re: Sondland’s notes being withheld will lead to another article of impeachment, obstruction of justice. That’s why they keep harping on ‘you’re not a good note-taker’ baloney.

“Sondland is flooding the zone so Schiff can’t get to Trump

Sondland is signaling he will take the perjury rap that the Dems are gonna lay on him after he’s done, because he knows the pardon is right behind”


That is an interesting insight - something is definitely going on. I can’t decide whether Sondland is smart but playing dumb, or dumb but playing smart.

Since he is supposed ot be friendly with Trump, golf buddies, etc. I should assume the former, not the latter since Trump is no dummy.

“Obstruction of justice” in an inquiry? Is there legal basis for that?

I’m not sure if I agree with you, but that’s a good observation. We will soon see during the cross.

Don’t know his record. The guys yesterday, were career guys, and I think all in all part of the swamp, but not disloyal, but I sensed this Volker guy doesn’t like Trump, for what he said about John McCain.

It goes to executive privilege. Let the Democrats impeach the President over it.

I’m still baffled how it is possible for someone who deliberately lied about what a transcript said to be in charge of these events. Obviously neither trustworthy nor objective.

The pearl clutching we see here often is from a failure to evaluate all the information and apply critical thinking skills.

It doesn't matter when the vast majority of this country are blithering idiots who get swayed by what some late night talk show host says.

Ken Starr has his head up his rear end.

If some employee wants something and doesn’t get it, that’s not obstruction. None of those records were the subject of a legally-enforceable request.

It’s also the reason a lot of people have given up on live threads. Election threads are the worst.
