Add the fact that RBG is back in the hospital into the mix.

Wait a minute, is Schiff having doubts about impeachment now?

I think some of the House Dems have realized this is a no win for them.  Their base isn't going to end up disliking Trump more, and when he is not removed by the senate, he'll spin it as "innocent", or "vindicated".  Bad News Network had a decent take on it this week, but whatever the reality on quid pro quo is, politically this cluster is helping the President.

I'm shocked  :O that foriegn aid would be contingent upon certain conditions being met!  :rofl:
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler announced Tuesday afternoon he will hold his first impeachment inquiry hearing next week. This comes as he considers what articles of impeachment to draft based on "evidence" from House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff.

Can they win now? Hold no vote and issue a censure would be the quickest closure, but they would get trashed by their base and Trump.

Hold a vote and send impeachment to the senate, be a total mess for them once the narrative is not closely controlled.

Or! Hold a vote and arrange for it narrowly to fail to provide some at least you tried coverage for their members. In which case i hope the house Republicans unanimously vote to send impeachment to the senate.

One President to troll over them all

Heh. Yeah - as per link below regarding Tday, "honest mistake". My question is: Why are 100% of the MSM "honest mistakes" negative to Trump. There has not been a single positive "honest mistake". Whether you like or dislike Trump, you have to be pretty blind not to see the overwhelming bias. Plus the eleventy billion views of the false stories and the 17 views of the corrections.

Yeah, make sure you get the Russia accusations in there, just to make sure the report is credible, and the impeachment is for real, non-fabricated charges.  ;/

Dems now want to "get it over with and move on", of course because public opinion is going against them.

The comment "Impeachment by focus group" is just SO apt.

Apparently whether or not a crime even took place is irrelevant, hang the criminal anyway  :facepalm:

Quote
   Florida Rep. Val Demings maintained that President Trump should be impeached even if the alleged quid pro quo with Ukraine never took place.

    Demings, a Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, was asked during an interview on This Week whether it was relevant to the impeachment proceedings that Trump’s request for an investigation into Joe Biden never came to fruition. Host Martha Raddatz noted that no investigation into the Bidens ever happened and Ukraine received its military aid anyway, but Demings maintained that it was irrelevant.

    “You’re going to make me go back to my law enforcement experience. I had an opportunity in 27 years to deal with a lot of people who attempted to rob a bank, attempted to burglarize a house, attempted to carjack an individual,” Demings said. “We didn’t say, ‘Well, since you weren’t successful, we caught you, you weren’t successful so let’s just let you go and forget it.”

Was there a crime? I'm still waiting for the Ds to explain exactly what "high crime or misdemeanor" Trump is supposed to have committed. I doubt if I look through the U.S. Code and the Code of Federal Regulations that I'll find "quid pro quo" or "investigate possible favoritism by Vice President" in either code.

The crime is that Hillary isn't president and orange man bad.

"Objective"

Quote
    The law professor Democrats invited to provide obviously objective and fair analysis at today's impeachment hearing once explained how she had to cross the street rather than simply walking by the Trump hotel.

This is a peach of a witness. In various stories I've read she has:

Stated (in an interview a while back) that she has to cross the street when she approaches a building with Trump's name on it.  I watched the video. No Trump bias there at all.  ;/

During testimony, says that when Trump uses "us" he means "the royal we" because he thinks he's a king.

His son Barron really isn't a baron.

So from what I have seen, only catching snippets of the hearings, they had three law professors who all have documented anti-Trump biases and are staunch "dems can do no wrong" democrats. At least two of them have full blown, clinical TDS and have been calling for impeachment and making other emotional "orange man bad" remarks in resurfaced videos and social media since the election.

Only one law professor was called (by the Rs) who did not have an anti-Trump bias. I don't know if he has a "pro-Trump" bias or is unbiased. Still, three to one is a fair hearing?

And she did so making the further allusions to "King Trump", "Monarch Trump", just like the TDS law professor did yesterday. Tell me that's not coordinated PR.

The speech was heavy on "Founding Fathers", Declaration of Independence", and "King of England" stuff. Suddenly the dems are pro- Founding Fathers and pro-Constitution as written, vs "fluid document".

Oh, also - I guess being "prayerful" is also okay now.
