    To what effect could they have been effectual? Were they given a chance to call their own witnesses, perhaps?

    You think they "leaked" the Whistleblower's name? Why?

    Perhaps, Congress Republicans feel that by defending the President of the United States from partizan attacks they defend the Constitution?

    Why? Why do you think Congress exercising its impeachment prerogative is "unconstitutional?"

    Why do you think Republicans have turned their backs on Constitution?

    I seriously doubt it. I think that they are defending their chances of re-election.
    And ignoring their oath to defend the constitution.

    Jordan is back in the New for the OSU molesting scandal. The final report came out and they said he knew damn well what his doctor friend was up to.

    I believe your analysis comes from a Democratic party form of argument since it is pretty much anti Trump. However that may be, it is more lucid than the typical Trump hater is able to provide. Some of it makes a lot more sense than they make. Durham is who I believe will blow this up for Democrats. They are more guilty by far than Trump is. Biden made a huge error in bragging.

    "They" are Democrats. Jordan has a representative who stated other investigations cleared Jordan. OSU is who got sued anyway.

    House Democrats on Thursday unveiled a narrowly tailored set of questions that they say will guide their public impeachment hearings, with a focus squarely on President Donald Trump's behavior in the Ukraine saga.

    The three questions are:

    • Did the President request that a foreign leader and government initiate investigations to benefit the President’s personal political interests in the United States, including an investigation related to the President’s political rival and potential opponent in the 2020 U.S. presidential election?

    • Did the President – directly or through agents – seek to use the power of the Office of the President and other instruments of the federal government in other ways to apply pressure on the head of state and government of Ukraine to advance the President’s personal political interests, including by leveraging an Oval Office meeting desired by the President of Ukraine or by withholding U.S. military assistance to Ukraine?

    • Did the President and his Administration seek to obstruct, suppress or cover up information to conceal from the Congress and the American people evidence about the President’s actions and conduct?​

    I read the Ukraine Constitution in full once and it has no words about American allegiance. Our constitution is not designed for Ukraine either.

    See how Schiff is going to make sure to evade the Biden question, and that is super important. That is the real scandal. ​

    Those who conducted the investigation are not Democrats. Jordan knew exactly what that doctor was up to. I hope Schiff brings it up if Jordan starts attacking and harassing witnesses at the open hearings. Jordan is a creep in the mold of Denny Hastert, another wrestling coach and GOP stalwart.

    Trump whines about fairness when ever he isn't in complete control of the situation and able to manipulate the public as he sees fit. There is nothing unfair about the House's impeachment inquiry.

    That's a completely different line from what I was pursuing.

    However, we don't know if anyone leaked the so-called whistleblower's name. There is a name out there. A reporter makes a believable case, but it's not proven.

    I was referring to all of the reported leaks of testimony of purported witnesses' opinions.

    Trump is a moron who thinks that saying, "I dont want a quid pro quo" is a sufficient defense when you then immediately demand this for that.

    Hell, shitbird Schiff definitely will whine about this. Count on it. I studied the Hastert Case and his wrestlers did not believe he did this crime for a long time. They had no clue what happened. Hastert the homosexual appears to have limited his victims in number.

    Leaked???? They are releasing the full transcripts of witness testimony. Now many of those witnesses will testify in open televised hearings along with several others. I can’t wait to see Rudy (Hand Grenade) Guiliani, Lev Parnas and John Bolton on live TV. This will be better than Watergate. If these hearings can drive up the impeach polls to about 60%, GOP Senators will start to jump ship.
