well, nevertheless

FINALLY the 64D chess we've been promised for 3 years.

This 'But Biden' looks worse than any But Hillary though. You have both his son using his last name to get the gig, then his dad as the vessel for the termination message when his son was right there. It'll be harder for everyone to just dismiss out of hand. Dems need to play this like it is just a matter of checking boxes and don't ever discuss Biden. Is it illegal to solicit political favors from a foreign government? Is that what happened? Is that an impeachable offense? Is it illegal to withhold authorized funds until you got assurances from another government they will act on your personal behalf? Is that what happened? Is that an impeachable offense? Every time Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz says "But Biden!" Just say "Ok, but we are taking a vote on these issues. Shall I put you down as a no?" Never even engage on it.

good. He'll probably win and anything that gets that douche duncan out is a positive.

trump. i feel like you haven't been paying attention.

I think it matters. I wrote yesterday on this. I don't think it is a defense you'd see too much until time to vote in the Senate, but I don't think campaign finance violations like this is a slam dunk high crime or misdemeanor. You can have crimes that aren't also impeachable. This might be one.

genuinely seen hotter on campus than many of those.

You need some brow furrowing from people on the right. That’s how it starts getting legitimacy from the rank and file.

heh. getting the circulated talking points confused. they talking points say Ukraine brought up Giuliani first.

that's a good point.

that's wishful thinking ignoring the senators' reelection. they may hate the guy, but unless they build public support for their vote, pulling the rug out from their QAnon voters at the very end will not end up well for them.

hm. looks like 8-0 because rehnquist recused himself.

the nixon vote was 9-0 with 4 of nixon's own appointees on the bench, fwiw.

...and likelihood of wearing a vest while doing so.

It’s fucking Travis county? I feel like that information should have been highlighted on here.

That sounds like one of those cringe posts people do of imagined scenarios with their kid

It’s a decent point.

How did it even get brought to a vote?

No. That’s the best part. The retards have rendered themselves unimportant to the process the last three years. We literally don't care anymore how you vote because there aren’t enough of you.

Yes. Then the article said the stocks went up when he said he would release the transcript. It is truly news for tards. No mention of whether stocks went up or down after I took a dump. https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/us-stocks-sept-24-2019

Lol Stocks sink after Democrats say they'll forge ahead with impeachment inquiry

it's 2/3 senate, no?
