Seems like Volker missed a whole lot of fairly obvious poo poo for someone working in the State Department as a diplomat.

Gym Jordan trying to get Volker to say the phone call was leaked was hilarious. Volker: Uhh.. no, there was a whistle blower report the IC IG notified congress about and then the President declassified and released the transcript. Yeah, keep giving more time to Gym Jordan you idiots.

Yeah, they're not gonna impeach a second time. Raskolnikov38 posted:javert kills himself you know Was going to reply about Javert and was surprised no-one had when I read that post, thank you. e: Republicans and Libertarians hyperfocus on "they broke they law" (especially when it comes to immigration) because they think it excuses them from the moral implications of the situation. But if you point out that crossing the border illegally was a civil offense that generally resulted in a $10 fine while speeding tickets are much larger fines and they undoubtedly speed on a regular basis they have no response for that.

I have a hard time believing Trump knows anyone that isn't Trump, his family or someone that's been on TV a lot. He probably doesn't even recognize his own personal chef, maids or anyone in the Trump org that isn't loving Matthew Calamari.

He admonished them both: quote:"I think it is appropriate at this point for me to admonish both the House managers and the President's counsel, in equal terms ,to remember that they are addressing the world's greatest deliberative body," Roberts said at nearly 1 a.m. ET Wednesday, apparently intent on scolding both sides equally.

Sombrerotron posted:Yes, that was what I was driving at. Dershowitz equating the two betrays on his part either shocking ignorance, shocking deceitfulness, or even both. But aside from that, there really is no logical or moral argument to make against removing any official - much less the President - from office for abuse of power. Even if the people who wrote the Constitution had explicitly argued such, it would be madness to maintain that modern-day America should still subscribe to such a view and limit the use of impeachment powers accordingly. None of them are ignorant, they're all 100% lying shitlords and they know it.
