    why would i have to? Obviously based off Biden doing it its not a crime since he wasn't punished. That was the precedent that was set

    Democrats always accuse their political opponents of doing what they do to cover for their actions. Obama was Putin's bitch and got very flexible with Putin. Democrats try to say this about trump to cover for Obama.

    Who but the president decides what "channel" is appropriate for the conduct of his foreign policy?

    Agree. Allowed the Russians to take parts of Ukraine and gave them blankets instead of weapons. What a crooked Administration.

    But, but, there are sworn depositions from the people referenced and they are scheduled to testify.
    Do you expect them all to be questioned on the same day or sequentially?

    Jeff Sessions just nailed it when he said this impeachment farce met the very definition of a show trial, which is where it is decided ahead of time someone is guilty, and then they pretend to have a trial.

    I'm just saying none of their testimony will be admitted as evidence if this reaches the Senate. Your point doesn't address that Schiff won't allow the WB to testify, that won't be the case in the Senate.

    I'm sure their impressions of hearsay will be just as impressive

    Jeff sessions is one of them. I don't trust him and I'll support a Democrat to beat him. I rather have a Democrat in front of me then behind me waiting for a chance to stab me in the back. He is no different then Romney. They will talk the talk but when it matters they will goose step with the collective.

    Is it a crime or not for POTUS to hold up aid granted by Congress? (I don't care who the POTUS is.)

    He'll testify that he overheard someone else's conversation. Hmmmmm?
    That might work on the Springer show

    Well, at the very least, I think Obama was terrified of Putin and afraid of making him angry. The only time he lifted a finger against him was when he was already leaving office. Up until then, he let Putin run all over him. Pretty sure, Putin really wanted Hillary to win. After all, he could buy her and do whatever he wanted. Like invade and take the rest of Ukraine. Ukraine is lucky Trump won.

    Since when is it expected that charges are to be proven untrue?

    Today Reuters is reporting that contrary to GOP claims Adam Schiff has never met the whistleblower.The only person who has actually met him or her and knows the identity is an Intelligence officer.

    I suspect the whistleblower testimony in the Senate will be similar to Trump's absolute immunity. It will need to work it's way thru the courts to see which law to follow.

    Oh, yeah. I forgot about that.

    Then, there is: "I thought he meant something else".

    It was the official public policy, not a secret bribe solicitation

    Didn't you already use up your two star witnesses today? Even Dems are privately complaining it was a dud.

    First of all, he doesn't even meet the definition of a WB, and no law says he has to have remain anonymous.
