    Are you going to issue a warning to the U.S. senate?

    Well, I'm sure Trump would have with his tweets.

    The senate sucks it up.

    Beer w/Straw,

    I will be the last person to defend or make excuses for Trump and the Republican Party.

    Your warning has nothing to do with my opinions on Trump or the US Senate. I thought that would be clear enough.

    I guess that it is true

    There is no accounting for taste

    Sure, when the Republicans betray the Constitution and the American people by fixing it so there is no investigation. It's funny you support corruption and treason. And, I suppose the economic statistics are also all leftist media propaganda?

    Trump isn't the mean kid, he's the Kim Jong-un of the US and you've been duped by him.

    US farm bankruptcies up 20% in 2019.

    Looking forward, we estimate Bankruptcies in the United States to stand at 23500.00 in 12 months time. In the long-term, the United States Bankruptcies is projected to trend around 30000.00 Companies in 2020.

    Q:
    Just because you think that to be true does not mean that it is actually true.

    That being "said".
    If believing that makes you feel comfortable,
    then
    Do not let reality stand in the way of your comfort.

    The House impeaches the President and then the Senate conducts an impartial trial according to the Constitution. Are you saying the Republicans in the Senate were impartial when they blocked witnesses from testifying?

    "The proceedings unfold in the form of a trial, with each side having the right to call witnesses and perform cross-examinations. The House members, who are given the collective title of managers during the course of the trial, present the prosecution case, and the impeached official has the right to mount a defense with his or her own attorneys as well. Senators must also take an oath or affirmation that they will perform their duties honestly and with due diligence. "

    im guessing none of you saw the reporting that contradicted Volker's already shaky testimony?

    Reporters had to travel to Ukraine to interview the person because their visas were blocked.

    "He currently serves as chairman of the United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. He is currently on leave from the House Appropriations Committee, which he joined in 2007. He previously served on the United States House Foreign Affairs Committee and the State, Foreign Operations and Related Programs Subcommittee of the Appropriations Committee."- author unknown, "Wikipedia.com", Adam schiff, retrieved today

    Monetary appropriations... Foriegn affairs... Foriegn monetary affairs... And intelligence!

    I'm not Hamilton or anything but I dont think its a great idea to have the same person who is collecting information to be allocating money...

    It should be an impeachable offense to not realize what state the Super Bowl winning team represents. Kansas City, Missouri, Mr. President.

    Where did you get that?
    (certainly not in your linked)

    FYI
    The senate is under no constitutional obligation to call witnesses during an impeachment trial.

    The house managers(prosecutors) knew this going in. They were poorly prepared, and simply failed to make their case.
    This nonsense about "blocking witnesses" is just a sham intended to impress the poorly educated.

    The former was a summary of the linked article. You should probably read the article and educate yourself on Constitutional Impeachment rules. I'll wait.

    ... "... a summary..."
    Ah Ha
    A summary written by someone who is ignorant of both our constitution and your linked pdf.

    Who is this mysterious summarizer?
