You don’t want to see them. You want to stop them. They will more than confirm the extortion that Trump, Giuliani, Sondland, Volker have already admitted. The Republicans don’t want a transparent investigation. They want to shut down the investigation.

Release the transcripts. Now.
Schiff won't because they don't fit his narrative.

PP’s labeling you guys “braindead zombies” is right on.

Thanks for finding this! Also to remind everyone, the rules they are following now were instituted by that partisan Democrat, Paul Ryan!

There was a FULL HOUSE VOTE to establish the Benghazi committee. There were actual rules to break:

On May 8, 2014, the House voted 232–186 to establish the select committee, with 225 Republicans and 7 Democrats in favor, and 186 Democrats voting against.[1] The chairman of the committee was Representative Trey Gowdy from South Carolina.[2]

A select committee is different than an Impeachment. Why are you more concerned about this than the actual crimes being committed by the White House?

“If the facts are against you, argue the law. If the law is against you, argue the facts. If the law and the facts are against you, pound the table and yell like hell”

You are yelling like hell.

With a vote, Republicans could call witnesses and the President could have counsel present. Why doesn’t Schiff want that if there are crimes being committed?

That is delusional. They will come out when the investigation is complete, as is appropriate. Trump admitted the narrative. Giuliani admitted the narrative. Sondland admitted the narrative. Volker produced the receipts. Yovanovitch, Hill, and Taylor are rock-solid witnesses to the extortion scheme. How is all of that not obvious?

After yesterday’s circus, Schiff is probably even more sensitive to protecting witnesses from intimidation by keeping the initial depositions in a controlled environment.

Funny - I have heard reports that they are considering making these public due to the public backlash.
When you attempt to invalidate the votes of over 60 million American citizens, you best be prepared to be transparent about it.

No, he won’t because there are still upcoming witnesses and he doesn’t want them to tailor their testimony to what’s already been testified to.

Oh, please. That is such a BS excuse.
Most of these "witnesses'" opening statements have already been made public. The public knows what they have said due to leaks.
Why can't we see the questions that were asked and their responses? Because..... they don't fit Schiff's narrative.
The Democrats learned from the Mueller testimony that open hearings don't work in their favor. Simple solution - make everything secretive.

If the facts bare out and the proceedings move the the next stage, then the transcripts will be released and the witnesses brought back for public testimony. This has been answered several times and yet it keeps being asked. Where you this upset when the Bengazi hearings also started with closed-door depositions?

This has been asked and answered a million times already. It's like you're braindead zombies.

You are honestly asking this individual if he will believe the malfeasance after we know that the the Clinton campaign paid for the dossier? You people spend pages here calling Barr/Durham corrupt yet when Schiff creates a parody (his words) of Trump's phone call with Ukraine, you believe that parody? Then we find out Schiff met with the whistleblower a month prior to him coming forward AND sent a staff member to Ukraine in August who specifically spoke with 'witnesses' now coming forward? As you say, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a GD duck. Schiff is a duck.

Trump released a summary transcript of the call. It illustrated a quid pro quo. The whistleblower complaint, the testimony head to date and the Chief of Staff all confirmed a quid pro quo. The irony, just asking for the help is illegal, one didn't need a quid pro quo to make it illegal. But the blatant shakedown of a foreign country in peril for personal gain is abhorrent.

Everything you have stated is a distortion of reality and is noise to the core issue. No one from the Administration is denying the facts. They are telling the American public that it is legal and to get over it. Even if Schiff met the whistleblower (he didn't) and even if someone from Schiff's staff went to Ukraine, it doesn't change the testimony and tweets that confirm the story.

I mean, yes, but it’s worse than that. Willing to play these games with security risks to please Donald, who knew about it beforehand?

About 30 of them met with Trump in the White House 24 hours before the stunt. I guess Trump suborned yet another felony. Who's keeping count?

I don't understand why a SCIF would not be locked with Capital Police stationed at the door. Did Gaetz leave it unlocked for his buddies?

This sounds like any Boris off the street can wander into the SCIF. Have we heard from the chief of the Capital Police?

Trump sending in his goons.

Hopefully there are armed guards today.
