    IOW, you are able to offer nothing to show what he said is false. You have no example of a Repub congressperson on one of the 3 pertinent committees saying they were not allowed to attend the depositions, ask questions, have staff ask questions, or not get equal time.
    You can waste time trying to wordsmith your way around the truth like a good Trumpette. Or you can face the reality that nothing about the House process has been unfair. The choice is your's.

    You might as well be talking to a doorknob. Either they get it and won't admit it, or they are confused.

    LOL, another one of the media's false narratives. He came out and said the media misconstrued what he said. If you took the time to read what I posted you would see what he meant, not what the media is creating. Sondland, the President of Ukraine, Volker, etc., have all said no quid pro quo.

    Let's just hope the Independents don't fall for the democrat lies.

    And the Republicans on the committee just sit on their hands and have no rebuttal. Get real.

    Nope. But what does the dem media quote? The dem clown show narrative.

    Rep. Mark Meadows: "To date, every single witness, every single fact, has not supported any aid pause or hold-up in foreign aid being attached to any conditions, and that's been consistent with every witness that we've heard from."

    Yeah... this is become so out of control Secret Impeachment is a first in U.S. History. That along with an Orwellian media puts the Democrats right in line with Soviet style government.

    Not my problem if you do not have any subject matter knowledge when it comes to investigations and due process.

    An impeachment inquiry that hasn't been formalized by a vote is an abuse of power, and subject to lawsuits by those being abused by the process.

    It's not a "big nothing". It's more like a kangaroo court, masquerading as an impeachment inquiry.

    Hmmm...reminds me of President Trump (who, according to trumpers, never lies) who wouldn't recognize the truth if he tripped over it.

    NOTHING requires a "formal vote" so that is just a load of extremist rightwing DISINFORMATION.

    Quote the constitution or house rules that require a vote to hold an inquiry. When you can’t do that, I expect a retraction of the above stupidity.

    Precedent and constitutional due process requires a vote. Absent a vote, it's an abuse of power unprecedented in impeachment history.

    False. The right to due process begins when the inquiry begins, and extends throughout the entire process. If you want to claim that it's not an inquiry yet, then go right ahead; because you lose either way; one by proving an abuse of due process in an inquiry, the other by proving it's nothing more than a kangaroo court.

    Which is it?
