    So you don’t know that the WH won’t release the subpoenaed docs?

    The WH has turned over everything but what was or is in the secure server so far as I've read.

    Our "best and brightest" in action ...

    "WATCH: This is the exact moment this hearing became a farce:

    Dems: What did the WH tell you about Trump's call with Ukraine?
    Witness: "I was wrong about President Trump’s intent, that there was no quid pro quo"
    Dems: "...um..."
    Witness: "?"
    Dems: "Wrong answer - say this..." ...

    It would seem
    I assume
    Sounds like you’re playing the same game except you’re ignoring all available evidence to make your guesses

    There can be no full understanding, without all the facts.

    Keeping Eric Ciaramella from testifying isn't showing any want for all the facts.

    So here are the facts.

    Both Trump and Zelinsky says no quid pro quo.
    No mention of quid pro quo on the call with Zelinsky.
    Ukraine knew nothing about the hold.
    The funds were released.

    The dems are claiming that opinion on second and third hand hearsay are facts.

    Schiff lied AGAIN and claimed he did not know who the fake "Whistle Blower" is, or his name.

    Circus!

    Corrupt Ukrainians and corrupt American politicians = Birds of a Feather.

    "In the midst of President Donald Trump's scandal over calling on Ukraine to investigate 2020 Democratic front runner Joe Biden, a video has resurfaced of former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw calling out Biden for conflicts of interest involving his son from more than a decade ago.

    The video, shared last Saturday by Twitter user @ibrahimpols, who calls himself a "media watchdog," shows Brokaw interviewing Biden on NBC's Meet the Press.

    "Tom Brokaw calling out Joe-Hunter Biden's corruption in 2008," the Twitter user wrote about the clip.

    @ibrahimpols

    Tom Brokaw calling out Joe-Hunter Biden’s corruption in 2008: “Wasn’t it inappropriate for someone like you in the middle of all this to have your son collecting money from this big credit card company while you were on the floor protecting its interests?”

    NEWSWEEK, VIDEO OF TOM BROKAW CALLING OUT JOE AND HUNTER BIDEN'S 'CORRUPTION' RESURFACES AMID UKRAINE SCANDAL, BY JESSICA KWONG ON 10/11/19.

    Schiff must be praying that Pelosi will stop this and put him out of his misery.

    LOL - Feel free to point out where Schiff trashed Sondland in this opening statement...

    https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/13/politics/adam-schiff-impeachment-hearing-opening-statement/index.html

    Recapping some of the texts and testimony of others isn't trashing him.... that might come when Sondland comes in and tries to explain the additional omissions from his testimony above and beyond his first set of corrections...

    Taylor had made the point that holding up military aid in order to pressure a foreign nation to investigate a political rival is “wrong.”

    Is it reasonable to expect the vast majority of decent Americans to agree with that?

    Meanwhile, Bolton, Mulvaney, etc., have all been gagged by the White House, and prevented from sharing what they know.

    What do they know that Trump doesn't want the American people to know?

    Any NON partisan people in here that can give a true impression on whether or not this is making trump look bad or not? No hard lefties or hard righties like myself please. And not the guy with the Lord of the rings elf avatar either (he pretends to be center but rips on trump every chance he gets)
    Is there one true CENTER person here that can give true assessment please?

    Aside from being Chief Executive? That gives him authority to do just about anything in regards to foreign policy, unless it contradicts a ratified treaty. Is that the case?

    The only effective lethal military aid to Ukraine came from the Trump administration.

    While the DP was actively colluding with the Russians, Trump has been arming Russia's enemies and using lethal military force against them.
