    So far, it has been barreling along in overdrive, with Trump's attempts to gag his minions proving futile.

    Respected diplomatic career professionals, and even a Trump appointee who had established his credentials by a million dollar donation to Trump, have shattered his lies in testimony after testimony. His own chief-of-staff has admitted the Trump quid-pro-quo, withholding allocated funds from a foreign nation while seeking a "favor" of that nation's leader, a "favor" to serve Trump's personal political agenda.

    (Of course, neither the vast investigative resources of the United States, nor those of Ukraine, nor those of China have uncovered a hint of impropriety in the Bidens' conduct, but Trump's violation of US law does not depend upon their being falsely accused.)

    Kudos to Speaker Pelosi. Her deliberate, restrained, focused, professional oversight of the process has elicited an hysterical tantrump in response rather than a rational defense.

    That only serves to make the case for the American people.
    Pandora lifted the lid. Pandemonium ensues.

    And three years later, a mueller report, and a booming economy the dems are still talking about the popular vote. Sad

    Well actually after I laughed at the OP I highlighted what the news reports are actually saying and well it’s even more comical now.

    I find watching the statement live is useful. He is now a co-conspirator to obstruct justice. I wish he was lying, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Curiosity desmands I ask, "Why are Trumpets so stuck on the 2016 election results"? Didn't they win?

    The Congressional Impeachment Inquiry has made impressive progress.

    And maybe sometime they'll might even find something that is actually grounds for impeachment, though highly unlikely.

    This is going to get complicated again. Parnas, the guy Trump “doesn’t know”, is a former employee of the Trump Organization. That employment predated his faux “shipping business” in Russia and his company ‘Fraud Guarantee’.

    Like I said, keep looking under rocks and you might get lucky and even find something that actually might be impeachable.

    It's easy to see why the trump bumboys are hysterical.

    It has been a disastrous week for their p*ssy-grabbing messiah:

    Considering the ONLY thing they have is “Trump is mean” impeachment is still a pipe dream. Sorry. Your interpretation or what you THINK someone did is NOT reality. You need some real evidence to impeach someone. Otherwise this all falls into the sore loser bucket. Sore about losing. Sore that Collusion was a hoax. Sore that Trump didn’t start WWIII. Sore about everything!!!

    There jas to be some real evidence for once. NOT leaks. NOT he said she/he heard something from someone. NOT it sounds like he said X. Real actual evidence of some sort of crime. Something. ANYTHING.

    If you need to deny all that has been exposed, you can, of course.

    Going forward, regarding transcripts, the National Security Council’s lawyer, John Eisenberg will appear and be asked to explain why Trump’s call transcripts — including the one documenting his conversation with Zelensky — were placed in a top secret codeword system meant to conceal the records from scrutiny.

    That should be fun!

    Don't get your frillies in a bunch over impeachment, The truth is being exposed, and it is the truth that matters.

    Meanwhile, Fake Don's whining, "WHAAAAA! Everybody's being mean to ME!" is a feeble legal defense. He needs a good lawyer.
