We should let crimes go unchecked because the GOP are his accomplices? What sense does that make to you? |
What exact crime? Look, I don't like him either, but this is pure political theater. It's like Oakland: there's no THERE there. This nonsense is happening because like Roman plebes we'd rather have bread and circuses than effective governance. |
| The crime is called bribery. -NP |

A rebuttal of the "minority" report put out by GOP Staffers last week:

This report was for an audience of one. A solid portion of Trump's base reads about as much as Trump himself does. |
Anyone who doesn’t see a crime has to be a Trump cult member. Demanding a personal benefit in exchange for an official act is and always has been bribery. The fact that the bribery ask is foreign government interference in an election is another crime. Then add in all the obstruction and witness tampering charges, and include Trump as a coconspirator in Giuliani’s criminal conspiracies with Parnas and Nunes. Giuliani is committing crimes in Trump’s name today. The bribery and extortion of Ukraine is an ongoing crime. |

Regarding the "managers" from the House who take the articles of impeachment to the Senate... are these the elected members or are they counsel.
I really want to see some more masterful work by Goldman. |
| and Collins looks unhinged. |
Yup. Another southern white man prattling on about how unfair things are. |
The impeachment managers are members - at least they were for Clinton’s impeachment. “Thirteen House Republicans from the Judiciary Committee served as "managers", the equivalent of prosecutors: Henry Hyde (chairman), Jim Sensenbrenner, Bill McCollum, George Gekas, Charles Canady, Steve Buyer, Ed Bryant, Steve Chabot, Bob Barr, Asa Hutchinson, Chris Cannon, James E. Rogan and Lindsey Graham.” |
| Collins should be ashamed. Lies, lies, lies and more lies in defense of a corrupt POTUS. |
LOL. That would be Nadler who should be ashamed. I keep hearing Democrats say these "facts" are "uncontested." Nothing could be further from the truth. |
They’re contested by liars. Doesn’t mean they’re not facts. |
| Oh this is a s-show. And more Castor! I love that confused meffer |
| Oh but this opening Dem statement by counsel. Terrible. It's not about you or your son. |
