Also I didn’t realize not knowing comic books was the new :spergin: but I’ll try to remember that.

It's the lovely way you phrased your question that is the new :spergin:

I don't know comic books and have seen maybe 3 or 4 of the Marvel movies so I don't really get the reference either, but I'm also lacking that smug sense of superiority that has me rushing in here to make bad posts.

I know you think these are burns, but the "kids movie" in question is literally the highest-grossing film ever released. You're not cool and sophisticated for not knowing about it, you're just out of touch.

Anyway,

hard to say, his incentives to stop lying are about to increase dramatically when he's in jail

he has plenty of value as a closed-door witness he's just definitely not a star to show off in public

Man, they really seriously don't have anything. Collins is making the case against impeachment and all he's got is that the Democrats have wanted to impeach for a long time, and Schiff isn't going to testify. That's his opener.

Edit: And he's feigning outrage that the Democrats are being mean to Zelensky.

Double edit: he literally just accused the Democrats of bad taste.

The argument that the Democrats can't impeach for obstruction because the President has successfully obstructed them from getting more evidence is in serious danger of collapsing in on itself in some sort of chutzpah singularity.

The repeated implication that the consequence of US v Nixon is that the President has to turn poo poo over to a Congressional investigation only if they ask the SC first is low-key one of the most enraging parts of the legal arguments.

Edit: Like the entire point is that it was the ruling of the Court that the Congress has that power inherently. It's literally spelled out in the Constitution. And the Court ruled that it applied even to private conversations in the Oval Office between the President and members of the Cabinet.

The average American is absolutely clueless as to what is going on here. I've had to explain the impeachment process to so many people, the Republicans intentionally obfuscating can sway quite a few people.
