Schiff ending his time tonight with an appeal to senators to show the same courage that Yovanovitch and Vindman have shown was pretty rad.

Biden knows that he's lost a step mentally.... or twelve. Him testifying wouldn't be a good look.

There is no reason to concede the GOP making a circus out of the Senate trial. I mean if they are determined to do so they have the numbers but it will be entirely on them rather than being able to say the Dems were complicit in doing it. I feel there should be no horse trading over Biden testimony regardless of how one feels about Joe as a candidate.

In an election with a lovely candidate that made Democrat voter turn out nose dive he still lost the popular vote by 2.9 million votes. The GOP rat loving democracy with voter suppression tactics, the Democrats running a poo poo right of center candidate, and our lovely electoral college system is what gave us Trump, not the majority of the country Dr. VooDoo fucked around with this message at 06:17 on Jan 23, 2020 |

He's there to provide an air of legitimacy using the reputation of the third estate as an independent power. A reputation which is not based on fact in the first place, obviously.

Dapper_Swindler posted:https://twitter.com/ShimonPro/status/1220170720988274694 So two things with regard to this proceeding being a trial: 1. Isn't it the job of the judge to determine if evidence is admissible? Why are a majority of jurors allowed to say what they will and will not pay attention to? 2. It seems like a pretty big deal for jurors to not listen to arguments whenever they want. Why isn't the judge doing something about it? The supreme court is supposed to be a co-equal 'apolitical' branch last I checked. e:typos syntaxrigger fucked around with this message at 16:36 on Jan 23, 2020 |
