Here is a more specific analogy. A guy is beating his girlfriend for months and when the neighbors call the cops he stops and simply claims it wasn’t a crime and points to the black eyed scared girlfriend who refuses to accuse him.

Yes, that's a MUCH better analogy.

If Rigged et al can't see that the Ukrainian President's statement is entirely self-serving and therefore meaningless then Rigged & Co. simply do not have brains.

Sorry to break up your endless lib impeachment circle jerk.

Again, both "witnesses" verified that there was no interruption of funds to Ukraine for the past several years, which would seem like an important fact to remember.

Trump has given them aid in 2017, 2018, and 2019 while also arming them with defense which Obama never did. What exactly is the democrats impeachment plans here?

First it was Russian collusion. OK, that didn't work, so now it's Ukraine collusion. Looks like the democrats are throwing everything at the wall & hoping something sticks.

Give up already.

No quid pro quo.

Clown show.

You are a fu*king idiot. Biden was conducting proper US policy through proper channels to get rid of a prosecutor who was not prosecuting anyone. The prosecutor was taking bribes to not prosecute anyone, you stupid fu*k. The two witnesses today, you conveniently left out, pointed out this very difference and said what Trump did was not normal and did not follow typical US policy-making standards.

The witnesses also were staying in their lane. They said a couple times that it is not their job to determine if something is impeachable or not. They just were there to tell what they witnessed and to say if it was within the realm of normalcy or not.

You are a fu*king moron. Really. You are so incredibly dumb.

What did you expect from traitor trash like trigged?

He is a traitor. Un-American, and so incredibly dumb.

We'll see how that works out for ya, Chief.

Jim Jordan made to look very foolish. Although that’s probably the least of his worries.

Trigged’s point is that the impeachment is just in the Constitution, so it doesn't have “credibility” with trumpettes. In fact, fat boy is going to sign an Executive Order outlawing Congress, so nyaahh nyaahh nyaahh!

Democrats hate Christians wrote:

12:41 P.M. — Rev. Franklin Graham slams the impeachment hearing in a Facebook post:

It’s a day of shame for America. The media is calling the Democratic-led impeachment inquiry “historic;” and it is—historically shameful. That our politicians would bring this kind of harm to our country over a phone call, with the world watching, is unbelievable. As Christians, as those who follow and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, let us pray throughout the day and all of these proceedings. Pray for our nation, pray for our leaders, and pray for President Donald J. Trump.

Why would anyone think that the "Rev." Franklin Graham's opinion is relevant to anything?

Millions of evangelicals look up to him because they loved his father. That's why his words are very relevant.

Rev. Gray Ham needs prayers more than his mystery “flock,” bearing false witness.

Trump withheld payment with the purpose of getting Ukraine to start and to publicly announce an investigation into Biden and Ukraine interference into the 2016 election (That's quite ironic isn't it?). We have witnesses saying that Ukraine officials were told this. This is a fact. The direct ties to Trump are not as strong from witnesses. We have Sondland (Who has shown no problem lying under oath for trump, unless he's caught and the individual who over heard a phone conversation). All other direct witnesses have been blocked from testifying by trump in order to insulate him from the truth. However only an idiot could look at all the evidence and not know trump was behind everything.

Republican best attempted defenses:

1. You can't prove it. A number of people working under trump believed it and told Ukraine what it needed to do. The preponderance of evidence points to trump. There is some direct evidence to trump. ( This despite Trump's significant obstruction of justice by blocking testimony from major players.)

2 Diversion (This is a political not legal response) Schiff lied, we want to talk to the whistle blower, Biden is corrupt, process is unfair, partisan attack, the dems have been trying to get rid of trump since he was elected and these are never trumpers. None of these arguments are relevant to whether trump is guilty.

3 Trump has a right and duty to go after corruption regardless of who it is. This defense is somewhat laughable based on the focused nature (only things that would help trump-biden), the limited evidence to warrant an investigation and the sneaky behind the channels method he chose to pursue this.

4 Ukraine got the money and Zelensky said he wasn't pressured. The money was released only after an investigation was started. Zelensky could not admit to being pressured for political reasons in his country and because the wrath of trump still exists.

5 (The best Republican defense) yes trump is slime and broke rules but they don't reach the level of an impeachable offense. Many would think holding back needed and legally approved money from a country under attack for Trump's personal benefit and obstructing justice by preventing the truth to come out is very serious betrayal of our nation.

Congress needs to do It's job and the American people need to understand and demand ethical and legal behavior from its president. We are better than Trump.

For the hearsay, Ambassador Taylor was told by his aid that heard a conversation between Gordon Sondland and Trump that Trump was insisting on a public investigation.

They may get Taylor's aid to testify.

And they already have Sondland scheduled to testify.

Schiff is lining up witnesses to build this story.

While complaining about hearsay, Republicans are already saying that it isn't impeachable.

They are simultaneously arguing that you can't prove he did it while Trump is saying he did do it and there is nothing wrong with it.

Why complain about the hearsay if you are OK with what he did?

Yes, Ukraine got the funding.

2 days after Trump's bribe was made public.

I’ll preface this by saying I’m a big AC and Wolf Blitzer fan. They are typically very balanced.

However, I just listened to Kellyanne Conway eviscerate Wolf. He tried time after time to catch her in a gotcha moment and she calmly explained her way out of each one. He even went so low to say when queuing up a quote from her husband that “I don’t want to talk about your marriage. I know there are problems there, but this is what your husband said.”

Shameful, Wolf. I still like Wolf, but I’ll start looking at Wolf a little differently after this interview.

Kellyanne Conway is the new contestant on “Who’s the Biggest Whore?”

Jim Jordan is on the Gay Jock Lockerroom (Lickerroom?) boardgame version.

It's a lot easier to win "debates" when your rules of engagement allow for complete fabrication and the other guy's rules don't.

Either he’s worried or it’s a sign of Apocalypse.

Rs understand image - they are really good at it.

Look at the leaders of the elected Rs - they all are decent looking people and they can dress.

The Ds....have Schiff, Pelosi, Nadler, Schumer...Pelosi takes ok care of herself but clearly has had some unwise plastic surgery. The rest are not impressive physical specimens and they don't dress well.

The Rs...McCarthy, Paul Ryan, Mitch, meadows, jordan, meadows, gaetz...they are good at image.

Stone is a great dresser.

Someone labeled this mess

"Arms for political dirt"

which is probably the best summary of it.

It echoes with Iran contra, and is understandable and true.
