    I think I'll wait for the live video instead of this Schiff movie script.

    That's because they already leaked what they thought was most important.

    If the "excerpts" is the best they can do, it tells you what is in the fluff, does it not?

    Well, it does if you use thinking.

    We have sworn testimony that the phone "transcript" was inaccurate and remained inaccurate despite repeated efforts to make corrections.

    Really.

    Where did you get that information?

    Was it from the people who talk about their dearly departed "austere religious scholar"?

    Go ahead and show me where you got that.

    Aren't you supposed to be reading for those destructive Republican cross examinations that prove Trump did nothing wrong?

    I'm only on page 15 (just got back from errands).

    My guess is Schiff is releasing these, from least damaging to most damaging to Trump...

    The ambassador was recalled before the aid was withheld and the call was made...

    She's most likely just a (lack of) character witness...

    If this is "most damaging" you might want to put Mueller back on the case.

    Same, I read the "Suggested" forty thru 60ish, pretty uneventful.. You can always tell when its nothing because they never simply "Highlight" the incriminating parts.. And the link "Once again" for their leftist viewers is filled at ever section is narrated by some idiot that speaks their language and spins it in his own words what it all means... Or in simpler words BULLSHIT propaganda ¯\_(º¸º)_/¯

    The Ukrainian President did not say "nothing happened," so get a better talking point.

    And more importantly, there are very, very few instances where a public comment that you deem as exculpatory (i.e. "no pressure" is different from "no abuse of power") from an alleged "victim," especially when it is not made under oath, is dispositive as to whether a crime took place.

    And abuse of power aint one of em.

    Thats the issue. Accountable for what? So far, they have not been able to come up with an impeachable act. They obtained power and they are abusing it.

    She also provides important background information regarding Trump's efforts to launch a shadow diplomatic campaign outside the ordinary channels of protocol.

    Do you understand the concept of FROM this TO that??

    The FROM is the starting place... IE, this...

    Let me get this straight... a disgruntled former employee is whining about a "conspiracy" to fire her?

    What am I missing? Where is the beef? Lol

    Guiliani?
    Past presidents have had personal ambassadors. No one has ever objected. Roosevelt had Harry Hopkins (who lived at the White House for a time). Wilson had Colonel House who was at the Versaille Peace Conference. Both presidents were Democrats.

    A New Ambassador?
    Incoming presidents appoint new ambassadors all the time. I read almost two years ago that senators wanted this one (an Obama holdover) replaced for bad mouthing Trump. A nation has to deal with an ambassador who represents the will of the president--not their own.

    Possible criminal activity by Biden?
    Absolutely. The new Ukrainian president could have declined to look into Joe and nothing would have happened. He was glad to oblige instead. There is no proof of a quid pro quo, just accusations by Trump Haters who have failed over and over again to frame him.

    True, but I suspect that's not the focus for impeachment.... a shadow diplomatic campaign isn't in and of itself impeachable...

    Important background however, and probably why Schiff released this first...

    Guy doesn't miss a trick...

    You think Trump did nothing wrong in his first two years as President?
