    Default How Republicans Tried to Manufacture Outrage During Friday’s Impeachment Hearing

    Both Nunes and Stefanik knew what the impeachment resolution said about the rules of the hearing. The entire committee knows what they are. I heard them complain about this particular rule—that the ranking member would only be able to yield time to counsel during these 45-minute periods, ahead of the usual five-minute rounds for each member that would come immediately afterward—when the resolution was released, and I watched them debate it in the Rules Committee. Wednesday’s hearing had already proceeded under precisely the same rules, with Nunes obediently sharing his time with his committee counsel, Steve Castor, and no one else. But, hey, they produced their content: Cult leader Adam Schiff shuts up a Republican woman. Coming soon to five hours of prime-time Fox News coverage.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Raise a scene and divert the argument to the scene.Don't discuss the subject anymore and then the next day talk about how unfairly you were treated because of the resolution of your scene. Problem is , it was all yours. Schiff was exactly on point with the rules that the Republicans set up a few years ago.

    You have to admit it added some much needed drama instead of listening to the ambassador whine about getting fired lol.

    Why was she there, anyway?

    Yep, seemed a little sophomoric to me too...hope there's a lot more of this stuff from the GOP next week. It's the perfect companion to shifty's shenanigans.
