I gotta say, the dems sure have managed to make this dismal.

The entire house, both parties, know they are doomed and so far this is like watching Schindler's List bloopers in the Dentist's waiting room. In a prison.

I was hoping for some carnage, not just a bunch of people staring daggers at each other.

It’s got to be quite the dilemma for Graham
Not a dilemma ... an inconvenience.

As he kept moving the goalposts of indignation, the uprights fell on him. He had no choice but to reveal his true stripes. He now states it correctly .... he doesn't give a sheis what Mr Trump does, the current occupant of the WH is innocent.


ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
America can survive bad policy, but not destruction of our Democratic institutions

Its all very interesting. I think, given what I have read here so far, that its unlikely that any more facts will be found before they vote for impeachment. How about this? What if the Trump tax returns are given the light of day and it shows a 4 billion dollar influx of money from noplace? What happens if they call Trump supporters in the top tier, and they get to swear in and testify and they start lying under oath? I know, "what if" is pretty thin.

On the other hand, given how things are going, and how 'expert' its all being handled I tend to believe that we are not really done yet. All we need is one witness who has decided to rat out the Lord and Master rather than goto prison.

One can only hope? (please note, I am resisting a rant on "hope")

Trump better hope to Hell that every single one of his mum co-conspirators are in perfect health. Imagine if one of these rats gets handed a diagnosis for a terminal illness. Now, they have nothing left to lose, and they may want their legacy to be polished up a bit by some heroic final act.

They just might pull a grand mal version of a John McCain, like when he voted against Trump's attempt to repeal Obamacare.
Trump better make sure all his little quacking duckies are excellent physical specimens with a long life ahead of them.
Nothing more heroic than a soldier who jumps on top of a grenade, even if it's just a dying crook who "wants to get right with Jesus" on their way out.

A final F-You to the Big Don. The odds are not in his favor on this one because it might not even take a withering personal setback like a terminal diagnosis, it might just be they are very unhappy with what they got out of their deal with the Devil after all.

I wonder if John Bolton's been to see his doctor lately. He's been looking a bit frail lately wink

Oh, well, those are for the *next* impeachment.

I was hoping for some carnage, not just a bunch of people staring daggers at each other.

And it is my hope that we will see that carnage in November of 2020.

Failing that, it will be a different kind of carnage.

I never thought impeachment was a good idea. Maybe it was the right thing to do but it was the wrong charges to get it done.

There's nothing saying you can only impeach a guy once. The Deutschbank stuff is probably being saved for version 2.0.

There is no other reason why they'd be rushing this attempt, unless they had something else planned.
