I make a deep run in a poker tournament and come home to this? Ugggggggh. Curse the 73o my KK got cracked by that made me tune back into this. I miss my sweet, sweet ignorance.

If the GOP won’t vote for witnesses, the Democratic response is simple. Wait for them to acquit, then immediately open a new impeachment inquiry and subpoena Bolton, Mulvaney, etc to testify. This is a raw power struggle, it’s time to get in the fucking game.

The GOP wants to acquit for process reasons? They want to say it’s the House’s job to get these witnesses to testify? Okay, that’s within their raw power to do. But the House gets to open a new impeachment inquiry, they can say the Senate never actually ruled on the charges themselves, they ruled on the process, and so we’re going to get these additional witnesses ourselves. Oh, it’s happening in the middle of an election year? Too bad, so sad, fuck you. You could have had the witnesses and wrapped it up in early February, you didn’t, now we’re doing it. Enjoy your second impeachment trial that much closer to the election, Senators Collins, Gardner, Ernst, Tillis, and McSally. Cry us a river.

You will hear from John Bolton and then you will vote again.

Instead they’ll talk about how important the 2020 elections are to save democracy, meanwhile Trump and the GOP will be colluding with anyone and everyone, deleting voters from the rolls if their addresses are in big cities that vote heavily Dem or their last names indicate that they are likely a minority, and perhaps straight up rigging the machines. They’ll be investigating the nominee, probably the VP too, and probably some Democratic challengers in the Senate. Illegal doesn’t matter, it’s going to be within the presidents proven rights to do anything necessary, regardless of the law, to ensure his or her own re-election because it’s in the national interest.

We’re going to get shellacked in 2020 if the rules of the game are that Trump can do whatever he wants, and Democrats will play fair and hope for the best.

And not only are the Democrats too stupid to get in the game, these clowns running the party are trying to push Joe Biden down our throats so that even if we win, after four years of Trump and after the GOP has explicitly said that the president has king-like powers to do whatever he or she wants, Joe will be like, “Nah, we’ve gotta get this back under control and make some bipartisan deals with Mitch McConnell, my dear friend in the Senate.”

We are all so so so so so so so so so so so so so so fucked.

Goddammit I wish any of this shit mattered. Mike Pence really flies under the radar as a truly awful piece of shit. Would be hilarious for him to get impeached on day one of taking over for Trump.

Technically, the VP/Pence is allowed to preside over his own impeachment trial.

Alexander announcing his decision on witnesses tonight

I guess that’s what the titter with McConnel and Alexander was about earlier

He’s just bargaining for more campaign funds from McConnell in exchange for being a no on witnesses.

Resistance grifters are both the absolute WOAT and very, very funny.
