If Chairman Schiff, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and their fellow Democrats truly believe President Trump committed high crimes and misdemeanors, they should welcome public hearings. They should be proud to go on record by voting to hold an impeachment inquiry, and – as in prior impeachments – they should be fearless about giving the president and the Republican minority due process rights to cross-examine and subpoena witnesses.
Instead, they refuse to vote, hide behind closed doors, withhold key documents and testimony, and provide their media friends with selectively skewed leaks. It is the Russia “collusion” phantasm 2.0 – the construction of a partisan narrative, not the fulfillment of a public duty.

Slam dunk off the baseline by former federal prosecutor, Andrew McCarthy.
Everyone with an ounce of objectivity knows there’s no good reason for Schiff’s Star Chamber. Far from being justifiable there’s EVERY reason it should be done in public and McCarthy lists those reasons.
It’s worth the read.
Coup has started. First of many steps. Impeachment will follow ultimately~WB attorney Mark Zaid, January 2017

McCarthy? For real? The same McCarthy who admitted the special Benghazi Committee investigation, not to be confused with the previous seven Benghazi Committee investigations, was politically designed to damage Clinton's image? Now there's a credible source on what is real and what is phony
This is the latest Trump deflection, the previous half dozen didn't work, the reason for his meeting today with GOP leaders, to attack the process, have you noticed none of them have had anything to say on that which has already been disclosed? There is a reason for that
And again, for the facts, the prior impeachments aren't what you said, Johnson never had an inquiry, they went to straight to a vote, and Clinton didn't need an inquiry, Star had been at it, in secret we might add, for four years previously. This isn't litigating a case, and the GOP Congressmen on that Committee are sitting right there, they have the right to ask any questions they want, no different than a public hearing
You, obviously falling victim to the GOP talking points, continue to flat out acknowledge the facts, and for a Republican to be crying over investigations the way they are handled is nothing short of total hypocrisy given the last decade of endless GOP "investigations" into anything and everything Obama/Clinton
sorry desperado, the Dems can hold closed door hearings just as long as they please, what's the rush?
y'all can whine all ya want, doesn't change Article II, Section IV

Yes because Republicans are ALWAYS augmenting procedures to do what Democrats say is the right thing when procedural rules
favor them.
Jack yourself off more, OP. Maybe someone will care.
Democrats have a rare opportunity for the time being to splay Trump's defects in the open without Repuke lies and disinformation campaign interrupting the TRUTH.
I think we'll use the time without EVIL lying participation. MMMMMMMM K? Insert fuck you clap here
