    Default Pivotal moments in the senate impeachment hearings

    I watched the ENTIRE thing.....the GOP essentially got it's butt handed to them...especially when Berke took Castor to task. My favorite is when Castor went dumb when Berke asked him if he's calling folk like Hill and Holmes liars.

    Another classic is when braying parrot Collins berate Goldman to (magically) reveal who leaked the telephone information that Nunes actually did squawk with Giuliani NUMEROUS times. So much for objectivity. Amazing how Collins just assumes that he can insinuate that Goldman is about corrupt as the people he is defending.

    Let's face it, in order to buy the GOP alternate narrative you have to IGNORE any and all evidence that came out of the House hearings. And that dog just won't fly. Classic.

    The Democratic Party of the Jackass got their assess handed to them when Turley stated the OBVIOUS:

    Turley: Rather they are meant to drive home a simple point: one can oppose President Trump’s policies or actions but still conclude that the current legal case for impeachment is not just woefully inadequate, but in some respects, dangerous, as the basis for the impeachment of an American president.

    I am concerned about lowering impeachment standards to fit a paucity of evidence and an abundance of anger. If the House proceeds solely on the Ukrainian allegations, this impeachment would stand out among modern impeachments as the shortest proceeding, with the thinnest evidentiary record, and the narrowest grounds ever used to impeach a president. That does not bode well for future presidents who are working in a country often sharply and, at times, bitterly divided.

    It's a good thing you're just an internet loser with a lot of time on his hand and not an attorney at law.

    P.S. Trump never said "do me a favor" dunce.

    Turly's "opinion" is couched on the premise that one would have to IGNORE the EYE WITNESS accounts of the actions of Trump and his emissary Giuliani. And Turley's objectivity is a joke:


    Jonathan Turley’s testimony was so inconsistent, it contradicted his own previous statements on impeachment.

    No, this is what he said;

    1. “I would like you to do us a favor, though.” — President Donald Trump, memorandum of telephone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelenskiy, July 25.

    Turley's objectivity is pristine, unlike his partisan hack colleagues; this is an honest man who never votes Republican and doesn't like the President. He's also not a liar, a fool or a moron which is more than we can say about Schiff, Pelosi and Nadler.

    Was Nadler a lying hypocrite in this video?

    What was wrong with that? Presidents don't ask foreign leaders for favors as a condition of something? Dumb. It's hard to fathom the naivete and lack of historical education leftists have.

    of course there were witnesses, Trump won't let them testify, and that's one of the counts in the impeachment.

    There can be no witness if there was no crime. A witness cannot obtain their information second or third hand. I do wish you had a brain. Really I do.

    : one asked to be present at a transaction so as to be able to testify to its having taken place

    : one who has personal knowledge of something


    So is Nadler lying in this video? Or is he just a massive girthy hypocrite on steroids?

    Wittiness to what? There hasn't been any charge of any crimes. Trump doesn't have to let his staff do anything. He has Executive Privilege and unless liars like Nadler and Schiff have evidence to the contrary and want to take this to the Justice Department or the Supreme Court, this is nothing more than a clown show.

    Was Nadler a lying hypocrite in this video?

    The idiot either did not watch it and instead, regurgitating CNN talking points, or he fell asleep during it, which is plausible, then regurgitated CNN talking points.

    We have the transcript as well. It was released. Tell us again how long you have been institutionalized for this glaring stupidity you exhibit all the time.
