    It is perfectly OK. Democrat in Congress have a lot less power than they think they have. As they are learning.

    You're ignoring the lonnnnnnnnnng list of all that Comrade Pencilneck is not allowing in his kangeroo court.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    The only two witnesses that matter are Ukrainian leaders who have already made public statements invalidating this silliness.

    The consensus is that Bolton will eventually testify...

    Bolton has indicated he is willing to testify, but only if a court clears him to do so despite instructions from the White House for him not to do so. Technically, he has a point: Executive privileges do exist and, while not properly as protective as the Trump White House claims, they still are at their strongest in the realm of direct conversations with the president and especially when involving diplomacy.

    For Bolton to refuse to buck a privilege claim from the White House is, to his credit, in line with a consistent position of his over the years. Namely, Bolton long has argued that the presidency enjoys a strong presumption of independent judgment, action, and discretion in the realm of diplomacy and military policy. Although some of us may not believe the executive prerogatives are quite so strong, we should acknowledge Bolton is showing intellectual integrity here.

    Remember, Bolton is no suck-up to Trump. He is known to have deep disagreements with Trump, and no personal reason to want to protect this president. For all those reasons, his reluctance to testify is no mark of cowardice or cover-up. Nonetheless, he should overcome that reluctance.

    Trump has always been a racketeering lying POS so who is surprised by his cover-up? Even his AG Barr is there because of his long history of cover-ups.

    Ghoul-iani is in a world of deep shit on his own so he will do whatever he needs to do to cover his own wrinkled ass.

    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.

    If the Schiff Show wants Bolton or Mulvaney they need to take Trump to court to enforce their subpoena.
    They are not doing that ( because they know they will lose on executive privilege) - so fuck 'em

    If Trump has exculpatory evidence, (that means evidence showing his innocence), now is the time for him to go to congress and present it.

    Only in the Soviet Union and banana republics do people have to “prove” their innocence

    Sounds like democrats haven’t proved his guilt

    In the same way it's okay for Schiff to block testimony from certain witnesses being questioned by Republicans. Or any number of underhanded Soviet style tactics. I don't recall you starting a thread about that. Did I miss it?

    I guess you believe if you repeat these lies enough times, they magically become true. They don't.

    Things like this are unremarkable at this point. This presidency has been off the rails since day one.
    It is an utterly lawless administration. Nobody has any confidence in its operations. It is untrustworthy.
