Please comrade! Please entertain us with these "facts" of which you speak.
I think the Senate should follow the lead of the House. Let the majority party call all the witnesses it wants (e.g. Hunter Biden, Adam Schiff, etc.) and deny the minority party any right to call its own witnesses. You would agree with that wouldn't you?Chance Chase McMasters said:aggiehawg said:Profile in courage since he's fairly certain there isn't a total of 51 votes in the Senate for live witnesses.Quote:

One side wants more documents and witnesses.
The other side wants to throw it away and stick their head in the sand.
It's obvious why a guilty person would want to hide evidence and gag witnesses.
McConnell is playing a dangerous game here if they acquit in a sham trial and the public thinks they were part of the cover up. All the facts will come out eventually.

Nunes, R-CA, spoke to this reporter for Monday's podcast. He revealed that transcripts of Atkinson's secret testimony will expose that the Inspector General either lied or he needs to make corrections to his statements to lawmakers. The transcripts has been kept from the public by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-CA, because it is damaging to their "impeachment scam," Nunes said...."We really do need to hear from the whistleblower," Nunes told The Sara Carter Show. "That needs to happen and the fact that the Democrats won't release the transcript of us interviewing the Inspector General Atkinson that brought this scam forward. Everyone needs to see that testimony and the reason that it's not being released is because it's very damaging, not only to the whistleblower, but also to Atkinson himself.".....Quote:
(Atkinson) is under active investigation. I'm not gonna go any farther than that because you know obviously he has a chance to come in and prove his innocence, but my guess is Schiff, Atkinson they don't want that transcript out because it's very damaging, Rep. Nunes.....
The above could be a major reason the Impeachment articles have not been forwarded to the Senate. The Dems may have acted in haste, unaware that Schiff was hiding a major problem in his secret dungeon.

I'm with you comrade! Let's hope the Republican Senate makes it as ethical, honest and transparently bipartisan as the House Democrats did! I mean the House dems did such a thorough, bipartisan, investigation the Senate shouldn't have to find anything else. The crimes are obvious and stated clearly in the articles.Chance Chase McMasters said:aggiehawg said:Profile in courage since he's fairly certain there isn't a total of 51 votes in the Senate for live witnesses.Quote:

There is genuinely far more sincerity involved when the mullahs say they don't want war with us.MOCO9 said:

So just to make sure we all know how insanely partisan you are, already knew, you feel the House ran a transparent, bipartisan investigation and all secret testimony has been brought to light? They gave us indisputable, compelling evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors that your president committed? I mean, not just hearsay right?Chance Chase McMasters said:
The house investigation was fine and within established rules.
Nothing but faux outrage the HSIC didn't let the witnesses coordinate testimony or let Nunes subpoena irrelevant witnesses.
This is a problem for the cover up but good for finding out the truth. We do want to know what happened? Or don't we?
Problem with the `public sentiment' angle is most of the center and all of the right know the Democratic Party and MSM do not have America's best interest in mind, and favor socialism and open borders. Now you can add making excuses for Iran. So when it comes down to it, they are still going to not vote Left for higher taxes and their livelihoods to be destroyed. Have said it before and will again --this is more like 1998 and nothing like 1974. The Republican Party will serve its interest -- and that is not to alienate so massive a base now.We fixed the keg said:Bogus stats don't bolster your claims. Also, in terms of impeaching and ultimately removing the President of The United States, the term "wrong" has to represent actions which are illegal/unethical not just antithetical to whatever the democrat stance of the day is.Chance Chase McMasters said:
Doubt it. Nobody blocks exculpatory information when they're innocent. Especially when this is as much a public sentiment game as a legal one.
70% of Americans know he did something wrong, the other 30% wouldn't be convinced by a confession. The more revealed through FOIA and new witnesses, the more damning it is, not a good trend.

Take the above.....There is absolutely no sane person who paid any attention who can honestly agree with this. At best, you could only say you support the process because the end justifies the means. Even then, you are openly stating you are ok with perverting our constitution and ignoring basic rights to force an outcome you want.Quote:

If Bolton has exculpatory testimony, we should hear that too.
LG wanted a real trial with real witnesses in 1998, what changed?
