That is going to be very hard to avoid like I said before people are beginning to pay attention to this they are going to have a hard time doing any shenanigans right now.
The Impeachment Hearings , House Vote and Eventual Trial ..All Updates ...AS EXPECTED... TRUMP SKATES
- Thread starter lightbright
- Start date
Bolton has a book coming out soon and there are several FOIA requests in the pipeline. Some from OMB are due tonight, it's just a matter of how much is redacted. They would be stupid to block all witnesses when more damaging info could surface, but we'll see. Folks do stupid every day.
Yeah but a lot of Republicans got nervous today when they found out how many people was paying attention to this.
They just denied the democrats subpoena request. Waiting on part 2
yall are missing the big picture here for the short term.
the gop is just trying to get out of this trial and to an acquittal vote before the state of the union.
facts be damned. an acquittal on record is all they care about and they have the votes to make it happen. the gop is not removing him regardless. 45's attorney's literally just lied on record IN FRONT OF THE CHEIF JUSTICE OF THE UNITED STATES.
these niggas DGAF!!!!

imma need yall to be realistic. i understand hoping that the senate gop will do the right thing. but as it stands right now it will never happen. they will not remove him regardless of the evidence. this cover up fuckery is afoot.
moscowmitch has this situation by the short hairs. there is nothing dems can do.
short of some hail mary bomb of evidence its already a wrap.
we need to focus on getting him voted out and having enough numbers to overwhelm any voting suppression tactics. the key to getting 45 out is voting en masse and having a blue tsunami to wash away the fuckery. it is the only play now.

I watched a little bit of the trial. I can predict 53 GOP senators and also 10 democrats will vote to acquittal. This will happen before the State of the Union.

I'm not hoping the Senate does the right thing. I'm hoping enough truth gets brought to light so that when he gets off enough people are pissed enough to show up and vote.
good luck with that. this is operation sweep under the rug with the authority of the executive and judicial branches with an assist from the legislative branch.

I haven't missed the big picture. You are correct, "facts be damned" is the truth. The administration has proven, be they from; well published PhD scientist, career administrators and diplomats, eye witness testimony, even audio and video recordings they don't matter an iota. All that matters is their agenda. He owns his party and no one dares defy him if they want to be reelected.
Everyone but Trump is lying. This country and world are fucked. We need a proto molecule or Thanos asap. Kill everything and start over.
Trump lies and he is crooked as they come but the democrats make his job easy to get away with shit.
Who the hell goes to a senate trial and ask for the senate to investigate and ask for witnesses?
Would it have been smart to go the Supreme Court before you impeach and get a court order like any normal trial? Why impeach and then beg for witnesses later?
Just like the FBI. There is a reason why they have a 97 percent conviction rate. They take there time and build a case. They don’t do a rush job with evidence only for the judge to throw your case because you miss details or you made a mistake.
How tight is democratic leader Chuck Schumer's grip on his DNC senate colleagues? Do you expect any of them to vote against him in calling for witnesses?
I'm obviously no expert, but I recall those questions being asked and the reply was because it would take too long. I'm not saying if it was a wise decision or not, but that's what I remember.
Take to long?
Why rush impeachment. gettting a court order would take 15-20 days max. Plus me personally I would have kept the impeachment open to hang something on trump head. That would of inflict more damage!Can you imagine if the FBI investigated me and charged me with a crime and then when we go to court the feds tell the Judge they did not want to get a proper court order because it took too long? The judge would throw out the case !
Any court order would be immediately appealed by the admin lawyers and ultimately end up at SCOTUS. You know they can move slow as hell.Take to long?

We've discussed this before. Several times. Court cases from 2017/18 are STILL going through the courts. No way this gets resolved before the election via the courts.
Judge Jackson has already ruled absolute immunity doesn't exist, and while the WH is telling the public the proper course is to fight it out in court, they are in court arguing if Congress wants documents and witnesses, they need to impeach or block appropriations.
Nixon already established executive privileges do not apply to impeachment. They shouldn't have to go to court.
“Presidents Are Not Kings”: Federal Judge Destroys Trump's “Absolute Immunity” Defense Against Impeachment
The Trump administration's claim that White House aides don't have to comply with congressional subpoenas is “a fiction” that “simply has no basis in the law,” the judge ruled.
An eye on impeachment, judges weigh House-Trump disputes
With an eye to impeachment, federal appellate judges struggled with whether to grant House Democrats' demands for testimony from former White House counsel Don McGahn and access to secret grand jury materials from special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation

Trump administration urges courts to stay out of impeachment fight in McGahn dispute
House Democrats and the Trump administration are squaring off in federal court over the impeachment probe, testing the bounds of congressional oversight and executive privilege in a pair of cases that could reshape the balance of power between each end of Pennsylvania Avenue.

I don't know why really important decisions such as anything concerning the impeachment don't automatically get a bump in the line of court cases ..... other B.S. can wait ….We've discussed this before.

This is how Trump got over in business. Constant litigation or threats of litigation. He said he's run the country like he did his businesses. Cheating folks, bankruptcy and frivolous lawsuits is how he did it, and he's keeping his word. One of the few promises kept - this would be it.
I know.... and just like his businesses, he's gradually running the country into the ground... he gives no fux… it's not his money... and Russians will gladly give him more anyway... look at the return they're getting for their investment already
.
I'm betting that Lindsay Graham must feel like he's in a living hell... being forced to listen to all that factual evidence for hours and not being able to hike up his petticoat and storm out of the room in a dramatic southern rage...

It's 11:24 and the turtle looks like he's dying... like he's up six hours past his bedtime... sweating... face all shiny... probably going to eat a leaf of romaine and sip from the water bottle in his cage

If he had his way they would be going this long and longer every day. Few of these folks are spring chickens. There was one guy dailykos said was sleeping his way through and only waking up for the vote.
They said there were also folks on. Both sides of the aisle getting up and stretching legs when they aren't supposed to walk around and that was hours ago.
The turtle was a fool to think that the extended hours would go well... especially for him....
