You are living in a dream world. Trump will not be removed from office. It is all a pointless exercise.

You guys don’t get it. They will eventually do that. But not during the investigation phase.


There's not much more to investigate, after Taylor. Cooper could give a bit more details but she could do that later.

The investigation is near the end, maybe just move forward and investigate in public. Rub the GOP's nose in their president's behavior.

Who’s your congressman? First step in the process of elimination would be to see if he’s on the Intelligence, Foreign Affairs or Oversight Committees. If he is, then he’s participating in the hearings and therefore not part of this stunt.


David Joyce. I don’t believe he sits on any of those committees. I have always considered him somewhat reasonable, and would be very disappointed if he participated in this.


Call and ask that he speak against the antics.

Yesterday the outrage was about Trump using the term lynching with regard to impeachment and then it turned out that several Democrats used the same term to describe the Clinton impeachment including Biden!

Such a lot of phony outrage!


Phony like our constitution.


Like I said, a constant state of outrage causes legitimate outrage to be dismissed.

Remember the boy who cried wolf .........


Again I ask you. Is this a legitimate outrage being obfuscated by excessive outrage or is this part of the outrage cloud of nonsense you are trying to denounce?


Of course, there are things that warrant outrage. I think Trump's putting the Kurds at risk is just terrible and inexcusable. But like I said Democrats go into a fit of outrage over anything and everything that Trump and the Republicans do. The net effect is that one gets desensitized to it.

BTW, i am not a Trump supporter. i did not vote for him but I know quite a few who have - some reluctantly - and trust me when I say they just ignore most of this faux outrage.


This isn't poor policy, it's deliberate and reckless law breaking. It's pretty serious.

Why is this question so hard for you? Is tweeting from inside the SCIF outrage worthy or not?


I answered the question ..... it was not an answer that you liked. If national security was jeopardized it is a concern otherwise it is a procedural violation but hardly anything to get hysterical about.

Anyway, come tomorrow, this will recede into the background and we will have the next faux outrage of the day.

In this case the “faux outrage” is on the GOP side. They have been pounding the table for weeks about the House following rules they themselves set up when they were in the majority. Trey Gowdy himself threw Darrell Issa out of a Benghazi Committee hearing because he wasn’t on that committee. But the crazy Trump defenders in the House see that bitching about the process is the only thing they can do to hide the obvious high crimes and misdemeanors that the depositions are uncovering, so they lie like rugs telling their complicit “media” and their unsophisticated followers that there are no Republicans allowed access to this process. In fact, Some context: there are 108 members - 46 Republicans and 62 Democrats - on the three committees leading the impeachment inquiry. That's roughly a quarter of all House Republicans, House Democrats and the entire House taking part in proceedings.

You literally do not understand the nation's conscience when you think it's totally cool to disenfranchise millions of voters by attempting to impeach because of a narrative you refuse to show the public.

You are seeking to depose a duly elected President of the United States of America behind closed doors. What did you think was going to happen?

Guess how many members districts this proceeding is inquiring about; 535.

The public hearings haven't started yet. Why do you think they won't?

I personally think that Trump will resign before too long, possibly before any public hearings. Maybe that would just encourage you to feel wronged. In that case, for the good of the country, maybe I should hope that Trump will stick it out, through the public hearings, House vote and Senate trial.

I've read all the public opening statements of the people deposed. Have you?

The members behind those closed doors are 43% Republican. And there will be public hearings soon. Just not at first, because then everyone would use them to get their stories straight.

Meanwhile Donald’s lawyer argued in court today that Don could literally shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and there would be no way to hold him accountable while he was in office. Impeachment is in the Constitution. It is our recourse against someone who is acting like he’s king.

And this is a BFD.
