Its like the moral quandry of changing tracks, do you hit 1 person or do you hit 5?
Well in this scenario Volker and Morrison are crucifying Rudy and Sondland to the track, and then making the train run over them.

I really love this. Schiff gets 15 minutes more for his counsel, Nunes gets 15 minutes worth of rope to continue hanging himself with.

i'm pretty sure goldman has made an extremely compelling case that he should be appointed US Attorney for SDNY in 2021, or the head of some DOJ division, or basically whatever he wants that isn't AG

Nunes calling it a "drug deal" just makes it look so bad to people who already know about Bolton and just gives the media opportunity to point out Bolton said it first and possibly makes it look worse for people finding out about it.

Schiff "magically" gave himself an extra 15 minutes. Schiff shot him down saying it was part of the stated procedure. My guess is that the minority wasn't informed they would get an extra 15 minutes so Nunes was miffed that they couldn't prepare better.

Otherwise it's just trying to redirect by saying these were democrat witnesses (they aren't), and that the GOP wasn't allowed their own witnesses (untrue).

It's probably made easier by the moments where he stunts on Nunes or seeing Nunes clown on himself.

basically Schiff can have as many rounds as he wants, and when it was clear that there was still more to do after the first 45 minutes, he did another set. the minority knows that this is a possibility (or maybe they legit don't, they're very stupid)

He's started every round of hearings with a reminder that they can do that, so they're just complaining because they can't fill the time with anything but gibbering an Trump-worship. They have no response to the allegations whatsoever.
