Smh. And republicans will act like it never happened.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
What surprises me is if anyone thought it would turn out any different than that.
Let's face it, Bill Clinton committed perjury under oath and wasn't removed from office. Why anyone actually thought Trump would be removed from office still amazes me.
To be fair, I never thought Trump would be removed... I did and still do think there is an ultra slim chance he gets impeached by the senate.
When you get Senators taking an oath to be impartial, then turn around and admit the won't be impartial, you have a problem.
When you have the Presidents own attorney lying about who was and wasn't allowed in the SCIF in the house, you have a problem.
What makes that lie even stranger is that those senators know that anyone "on the committee(s)" in the house are allowed to be in the "SCIF" hearings... Some of them served in the house prior to becoming a senator...
Let's not even go into the members of the house that knew that Committee members are allowed in those meetings.... but were crazy enough to storm the SCIF like little children.
Now I have no idea if those that were allowed to be in there were actually there..,. But I know they had the right to be there and were allowed in... If they chose to not be there, that's their problem...
This is just another set of lies republicans keep pushing on their gullable fans like 40.
You'd think that 40 and his like would just look it up, they'd see it for themselves..

on “This Week with George Stephanopolous” on Sunday, Dershowitz argued that impeachment of a president requires proof “of an actual crime,” and that Trump can’t be removed for abuse of power or obstruction of Congress, the two impeachment articles approved by the House last year.
i think anybody who thinks he was gonna be removed is delusional. unless something massive drops, it wont happen.
what most of us thought, however, was that this impeachment trial in both the house and senate was going to expose some damning evidence, obstruction, and the inability for the GOP to stand up for the constitution against a president who really wants to operate like a dictator.
and all of those things are indeed happening.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
Well if McConnell gets his rules through unchanged today, the impeachment is over. Trump will get a pass and we will officially be an oligarchy ruled by an authoritarian, well on our way to dictatorship. 40 and his ilk will have destroyed everything that was America for the last 250 years.

Oh, the drama.
You go ahead and root for American Fascism and dictatorship. Sickening. I remember when GOPers accused Obama of acting like a King, what a joke.
The dems allowed 0 republican witnesses in the House. I say the Republicans allow the same amount of Dem witnesses in the senate. 0
You reap what you sow. The House showed the Republicans how to operate unfairly and the Republicans are returning the favor. I think it is great! Winning!!!!

I'm rooting for intellectual honesty. I don't like Donald Trump.. I also remember when Chuckie Schumer (who was in the House in the 90s) made every attempt to block as many witnesses as he could from the Clinton impeachment trial.... now going on for hours about how unethical it is to block witnesses..
Frauds, the whole lot of them. One day you will get over this ridiculous notion that one side is evil but your side stands for truth, justice, and the American way... your side stands for power just like the other side does.. WakeTFU
In the name of defeating fascism the government needs to control all of education, healthcare, retirement, housing costs, housing construction, gun ownership, wages, land use, carbon emissions, "hate" crimes, "hate" speech... what the hell do you think fascism is?
I guess it boils down to do you think that both sides hiding witnesses and documents from the public that would help uncover the truth is right or wrong?
And at some point fact have to enter into this. There were three witnesses deposed during the Clinton impeachment trial.

I'll say it again. Three witnesses were deposed during the Clinton impeachment trial.
Quote:
Jan. 26: Senators hear arguments from House managers for seeking depositions from three witnesses — Lewinsky, Clinton confidant Vernon Jordan and White House communications aide Sidney Blumenthal, and then deliberate in secret.
Jan. 27: In back-to-back 56-44 votes, nearly along party lines, the Senate refuses to dismiss the charges against Clinton and agrees to seek depositions from Lewinsky, Jordan and Blumenthal.
Jan. 28: After failing to reach a bipartisan agreement, the Senate approves Republicans’ plan for taking depositions in a party-line vote and sets Feb. 12 as a target date for the trial’s end.
Feb. 1: House managers depose Lewinsky behind closed doors. Clinton’s lawyer reads a statement expressing the president’s regret over what she’s gone through and asks no questions.
Feb. 2: House managers privately question Jordan for three hours.
Feb. 3: House managers question Blumenthal for three hours.
Feb. 4: By a 70-30 vote, the Senate decides not to call Lewinsky to testify in person, as House Republicans wanted, but allows House managers to present video excerpts of her deposition.
There were three witnesses deposed during the Clinton impeachment. Some of you really need to investigate what you're being told rather than to continue to spread those lies.

Schiff asserted that Parnas’s message to Giuliani that he was “trying to get us mr Z” referred to an attempt to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
“Mr. Parnas continued to try to arrange a meeting with President Zelensky,” Schiff wrote to Nadler of the message.
But according to Politico, unredacted communications that Schiff has not released indicate that Parnas was referring to Mykola Zlechovsky, the owner of Burisma Holdings, the Ukrainian gas firm that had Hunter Biden as a director.
Parnas sent Giuliani notes from an interview he conducted with Zlochevsky days after the July 3 text message.
Listening to Pencilneck Shiff lie for 24 hours is not only miserable, but comical at the same time.
Yeah, well fat trump does that better than anyone. Fat trump is huge at lying. The best ever. Probably be known as the best liar of all carbon life forms. Fat trump pfft

Didn't the Dems refuse the other side access in their Impeachment proceedings ... I thought so
See the Trump way of spreading lies works. . . . say something enough and people believe it regardless that it is a TOTAL FABRICATION
They all lie

To some extent I think all politicians do lie. That does not make them all equivalent or equal. The fact that Trump and the GOP went on a campaign to deliberately lie and manipulate what you thought about the proceedings might indicate something to you if you were open to asking why was it so important to them to create this fictional narrative.
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

Typical response. No they actually don’t all lie. But go ahead and condemn the human race Pastor.
Really, Most politicians lie it is how they get where they are and what they want, most people see this, and I was talking politics not the human race, this is why I rarely get on this page because things are taken out of context just like the "Trial" going on in the Senate

When you block all the witnesses and refuse to turn over any documents.....
1. The Democrats didn't let republicans in the house attend a secret closed door meeting, call their witnesses. What the hell was that? Do you have an answer?
2. This is part of the executive branch and privileges. Don't like it? Tough. Amend the constitution.
3. As I've said for over 3 years, all of this is a waste of time. I'm not sure what party you belong to, but you better get used to seeing Trump win in 2020. Get used to it fast because there's nothing you can do about it.
yet another maga hatter who falsely states that their wasnt republicans in the closed door hearings.
newsflash: not only were there republicans in those meetings, but some republicans refused to attend even though they had the invite.
i await your response.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
yea there's not much of a point. if anything important drops, it'll pop up in the news.

They only did this to try to get an edge in the election. Desperation move.
