What is the deal with the "Schiff knows the identity of the whisteblower" sign that the Republicans keep trotting out? Does he actually know or not?

eke out posted:nah the whistleblowers attorneys at one point reached out to HPSCI, but were told to go through the IG process instead, which they did. no indication they did anything except briefly talk to staffers while keeping their client anonymous (which of course they would do) I figured it was something like that. Thanks!

refleks posted:I know gently caress all about military code, but is he required to show up in uniform for these things? All the photos I have seen of him has been in full uniform. I'm not sure if it's required, but I'd wear my uniform if I was him. They're almost certainly going to try and smear his name today. Let them deal with the optics of doing so to a purple heart recipient sitting there in uniform.

I cannot imagine how Nunes thinks this line of questioning is useful at all.

refleks posted:What's the catch with these questions? The only thing I can think is Nunes is trying to do a, "Well actually, it was good to ask Ukraine to investigate the Bidens! Williams and Vindman only thought it was alarming when they heard the call because they didn't realize how corrupt the Bidens' dealings with Ukraine actually were!"

This almost feels like Nunes doesn't have enough questions so he's trying to run out the clock lol

hahahaha holy poo poo, Vindman correcting Nunes to address him by his full title

Kudos to Himes for pointing out that the line of questioning was bullshit.

They are SERIOUSLY going down this road? "Do you always make private citizens address you by your rank?"

"a corrupt country filled with terrible people that tried to take me down" you can tell Trump actually said this. It's so him.

Sondland is putting off a vibe that I can't quite put my finger on.

Nunes has nothing left except, "The democrats are just out to get daddy!"

It seems like the Republicans have no choice now but to try and saddle Giuliani with all of this to protect daddy.

My key takeaway from all these hearings is that Trump tries to do all the crimes, but he's too lazy and unorganized to complete most of them.

zonohedron posted:Can Nunes take Castor's time away? It's 45 minutes for Nunes to use as he pleases. Nunes and Castor are the only people who can use the 45 minutes, but if Nunes wants to speak the entire 45 minutes, or speak for 20 minutes and yield back the remainder of time he can do so.

I don't think Nunes is going to question Hill or Holmes much at all. He's gonna 5 minutes of, "Well, here we are again. Day 38 of the kangaroo court. I bet the ratings are tanking! The american people see through the drug deal the democrats are cooking up!" and then Toby from the office is going to ask questions that lead nowhere for the remaining 40 minutes.
