Definitely should check YouTube, too!

While all of this racist talk is interesting I think we are getting off topic.

Yesterday a bombshell was dropped at the hearings. Morrison contradicted testimony of Vindman and Taylor, this is big, it seriously undercuts the demonrats conspiracy theory. The conspiracy and lies are starting to unravel!

The trumpublicans would like you to remember that one thing, Morrison contradicts the testimony of Taylor and Vindman. I don't think we need any more info than that. Let's dismiss this impeachment BS, get over it. That is all, let's move on to the important business of more tax cuts now. We have to get my economy rolling towards retirement faster.

Earlier testimony said that the "drug deal" went down in a hotel room. Morrison says unequivocally "NO", the "drug deal" went down in a meeting room in the hotel. I think we can all agree, this is a substantial change in the details of the "drug deal". Morrison says yes there was a "drug deal", it seems we can all agree on that, but can we? But if the witnesses can't agree on the exact location and the exact time, how can we trust their recollection that there was a "drug deal"? Maybe this was the Ukrainian's equivalent of "trick of treat" and everyone is just cornfused?

If I catch your drift, japhy, what you're saying is:

"If you hear hooves, think zebras!"

Right?

That ranks right up there with "they didnt k ow we were withholding stuff to get what we want" which was a) not true and b) not proof that you didnt do a bad thing.

Trump is one of those guys who would say that since the woman he raped was passed out and didnt know what he did that it wasn't rape and be offended that his explanation wasn't enough to exonerate him.

So dramatic and over the top. Good lord what a stupid analogy.

Gosh, I'd consider it, but what fun would that be?

Where is our favorite due process screamer?
Jury tampering anyone?

And when you don't have the facts, throw anything and everything at the wall, because ~ 38% of Americans will eat anything you feed them:

Looks like the White House Lawyer John Eisenberg is going to need a "lawyer", despite "Perfect call":

Vindman did not initially believe moving the call to the codeword system constituted a coverup. But he said he became disturbed when Eisenberg later instructed him not to discuss details of call, because it was Vindman’s job to coordinate interagency process re: Ukraine policy.

Can you say "consciousness of guilt"?

Democratic Representative Gerry Connolly, senior member of the Oversight and Foreign Affairs Committees, during a break in the impeachment testimony on Wednesday:

"If I were an enterprising reporter, I would spend a little time on Javelin missiles."

May 02, 2018 Ukraine, Seeking U.S. Missiles, Halted Cooperation With Mueller Investigation

In the United States, Paul J. Manafort is facing prosecution on charges of money laundering and financial fraud stemming from his decade of work for a pro-Russian political party in Ukraine.

But in Ukraine, where officials are wary of offending President Trump, four meandering cases that involve Mr. Manafort, Mr. Trump’s former campaign chairman, have been effectively frozen by Ukraine’s chief prosecutor.

The cases are just too sensitive for a government deeply reliant on United States financial and military aid, and keenly aware of Mr. Trump’s distaste for the investigation by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, into possible collusion between Russia and his campaign, some lawmakers say.

The decision to halt the investigations by an anticorruption prosecutor was handed down at a delicate moment for Ukraine, as the Trump administration was finalizing plans to sell the country sophisticated anti-tank missiles, called Javelins...

Oct. 31, 2019 In Ukraine, the quid pro quo may have started long before the phone call

What led to Trump’s first meeting on June 20, 2017, with Ukraine’s then-President Petro Poroshenko? Ukraine had hired the lobbying firm BGR Group in January 2017 to foster contact with Trump, but nothing had happened . . . and then the door opened. Why?

On June 7, less than two weeks before Poroshenko’s White House meeting, Trump’s lawyer, Rudolph W. Giuliani, had visited Kyiv to give a speech for the Victor Pinchuk Foundation, headed by a prominent Ukrainian oligarch. While Giuliani was there, he also met with Poroshenko and his prosecutor general, Yuriy Lutsenko, according a news release issued by the foundation.

Just after Giuliani’s visit, Ukraine’s investigation of the so-called black ledger that listed alleged illicit payments to former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort was transferred from an anti-corruption bureau, known as NABU , to Poroshenko’s prosecutor general, according to a June 15, 2017, report in the Kyiv Post. The paper quoted Viktor Trepak, former deputy head of the country’s security service, saying: “It is clear for me that somebody gave an order to bury the black ledger.”

Dear Democratic Colleague,

On Thursday, thanks to the courage of our House Members, we continued to honor our oath of office with our strong vote to establish the procedures for the next phase of the inquiry.

At the same time, House Democrats are also honoring the commitment to our For The People agenda. H.R. 3, the Elijah E. Cummings Lower Drug Costs Now Act, and H.R. 4, the Voting Rights Advancement Act, are both coming to the House Floor soon. We hope to continue further down the path to yes on the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement.

While Mitch McConnell claims the House is only focused on impeachment, there are scores of critical bills sitting on his desk sent to him by the House Democratic Majority. Among them are:

• H.R. 1 – For The People Act – Sent to the Senate 239 days ago.

• H.R. 8 – Bipartisan Background Checks Act – Sent to the Senate 248 days ago.

• H.R. 7 – Paycheck Fairness Act – Sent to the Senate 220 days ago.

• H.R. 1585 – VAWA Reauthorization Act – Sent to the Senate 212 days ago.

• H.R. 9 – Climate Action Now Act – Sent to the Senate 184 days ago.

• H.R. 5 – Equality Act – Sent to the Senate 169 days ago.

• H.R. 6 – Dream and Promise Act – Sent to the Senate 151 days ago.

• H.R. 582 – Raise the Wage Act – Sent to the Senate 107 days ago.

On the inquiry, the polling has shifted from 59/34 opposed to impeachment when the inquiry was officially announced to 49/47, not only for impeachment, but also removal from office.

I believe that the truth will set us free, and the facts are clear. President Trump withheld Congressionally-approved military assistance to Ukraine for his political advantage and now is covering it up. Ukraine desperately needed this assistance. At least 11,000 Ukrainians have already died in the fight against Russia’s incursions into their country. The President’s actions undermined national security, jeopardized the integrity of our elections and violated his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.

President Nixon resigned office because of the break-in of the DNC Headquarters for his political gain and the cover-up. Some observers of that sad time of our history say that President Nixon’s offenses pale in comparison to what President Trump has done.

House Republicans voted against the rules of procedure for the inquiry because they said what President Trump did was not wrong. As we legislate, investigate and litigate, we recognize that no one is above the law, not even the President of the United States. He will be held accountable.

The times have found each and every one of us to Defend our Democracy For The People. Thank you for your patriotism.

Trump is a disgusting piece of shit. And republicans? "Law and Order Party" my ass:

The discoveries inside the first 500 pages of documents from the Mueller Investigation to @Buzzfeed under the FOIA act is revealing some very interesting information:

i really fail to understand how people can continue to both support and enable such behavior

when is enough, enough?
