And now the real circus will begin;

[archives]

"Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Thursday that he will be in "total coordination with the White House counsel" as the impeachment into President Donald Trump presses forward."

"During an interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News, the Majority Leader said that "everything" he does*"during this, I'm coordinating with the White House counsel. There will be no difference between the president's position and our position as to how to handle this, to the extent that we can."

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in a jury trial isn't the jury suppose to be impartial till at least the proceedings begin? And I certainly know that members of the jury, especially the leader, is not suppose to work hand and hand with the defendants attorneys, well, that was the way cases were done prior to the Trump era

(And before the lemmings start with the "but but but what about the House," nothing was being litigated in the House, they were following the House rules set by the prior GOP House)

The Trumpkin's are all hoping they get to call all the witnesses Hannity wants called, ain't happening, then the whole facade will really turn into a circus with the Democrats demanding all of Trump's White House lackeys and perhaps Trump himself. Mitch wants this in and done in two weeks

Hilarious that you have the UNMITIGATED GALL TO DECRY A LACK OF "IMPARTIALITY" AFTER THE STALINIST SHAM WE HAVE BEEN PUT THROUGH THUSFAR BY THE HOUSE POLITBURO.

DUE PROCESS ALLOWS FOR BOTH SIDES TO BE PRESENTED...which you CLEARLY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH.


YOU AREN'T ALONE; the DUNCE-O-CRATS will GET THEIR ASSES HANDED TO THEM IN THE SENATE....AND THE 2020 ELECTION...

[Stretch]

Actually adults in the room will now swiftly put an END to this "circus".
Inevitably though the clowns like Pelousy, Pencilneck & Jabba the Hut will
hoist the circus tent again and bring new acts into the center ring.
It's all they do.

This one is even worse when he doesn't have his Onion sources

The Senate is suppose to be based on an actual trial, the legal system, the House that of a Grand Jury, and as I said, if you want to bitch, yell at all those Jordan's, Meadows, Chavezs, Collins, Issas, and Nunes who established the House rules when they were in charge to conduct their umpteen "investigations," what goes around comes around, stop crying, your heroes set the rules

Now tell us Tucker Carlson thinks

IT WILL BE, UNLIKE THE FARCE IN THE HOUSE.

IOW...THE GOP WILL BE ABLE TO CALL THE WITNESSES THEY CHOOSE TO, and ASK THE QUESTIONS THAT WANT TO, REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE HOUSE POLITBURO THINKS ABOUT IT.


YOU ARE ARGUING AGAINST DUE PROCESS, NOT FOR IT.

IMPEACHMENT IS SUPPOSED TO BE IMPARTIAL, DITZ.

As I said, the real circus, but this one will be orchestrated by the White House and quickly recognized as another Trump production, the Democrats would love a Hannity "trial," but Mitch ain't letting that happen, the last thing he wants is a bitter Bolton under oath in front of a live TV audience

[reagansghost]

there may be no circus at all, Moscow Mitch is working very hard to simply hold a floor vote, no testimony or anything remotely resembling an actual trial

[evince]

Mitch will be the GREATEST DEFENSE LAWYER EVER FOR TRUMP


the only problem is that is not his job according to the CONSTITUTION

They have already passed The Constitution around to take turns wiping their wrinkled asses with it.

This isn't going anywhere yet Arsecheese; they still need a majority vote on the House Floor. It will be interesting to see how the 31 Democrats in Trump favoring districts vote. It only takes 20 defections to put an end to the REAL clown show we have seen put on by two morons Nadler and Schiff.

Uh huh.

Let's pretend for just a bit that it's seven years ago, and Obama is on the verge of being impeached. For the sake of this scenario we'll stipulate that a whistleblower outed him for comments made during a phone call with Iran's leader. Let's say that Obama promised to go light on the issue of Iran's nuclear program if Iran's leader would announce that it was investigating whether Romney and his family had illegal dealings in that country. The (R)-dominated House opens an investigation into this possible quid pro quo, and produces multiple credible witnesses who not only heard the same conversation, but who also testify that Obama had his personal attorney meeting with government officials in Iran in furtherance of the goal of throwing shade on Romney. After weeks of information-gathering, the House votes to impeach Obama for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, and the matter then goes to the Senate, which has a (D) majority. Senator Majority Leader McCaskill (D-MO) says that she won't call any witnesses and will merely hold a vote to acquit Obama of all charges.

Something tells me that your satisfaction with this scenario would be quite different than it is now. Why is that? Shouldn't the law apply to every POTUS equally? Or do (R)s get special dispensation to violate the Constitution? That's what you are saying, you know.

the next big indicator of whether democracy will survive this right wing/Russia coup - will there be any public demonstrations during the holidays opposing this treachery

especially in Maine and Alaska, along with the swing states

Wrong, but it ain't worth the time to show you why, you are going swallow and perpetuate anything Hannity tells you so why would one bother

You’re *just now* complaining about the circus lol?

It’s going to be a Republican controlled circus. Remember, this is what you wanted.

you are crazed. the Schiff show was a farce -Nadler promised a minority day, and then said "no" and Schiff
was coaching witnesses and acting like a judge and prosecutor.

To complain about ANYTHING in the Senate takes more gall then reason/ hopefully the plug is pulled on this farce with a dismissal vote right off the bat, and then you can start your next impeachment circus
