Anyone committed to taking Trump out with these billion dollar resources and extreme efforts has my support.

Meanwhile, Speaker Pelosi said Sunday that senators will “pay a price” if they block new witnesses from testifying in the impeachment trial.... this seems to be a combination of political maneuvering and legal strategy. 

Don't know everything Pelosi knows, which means till this trial plays out completely, no one should presume she's making any bad decisions with the cards she's been dealt.

The White House just tweeted that they’re having their first snow of the season. 

It’s currently 52 degrees and clear according to what the internet is telling me.

Charles,

Sounds like a bluff to me - Speaker Pelosi's "cards" last until she transmits the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate.  After that, she's out of the game.  

The Constitution explicitly grants SOLE power of impeachment to the US House of Representatives, unfortunately for Pelosi, it also explicitly grants SOLE power to try such impeachments to the Senate.  Just as Republican senators were powerless to do anything about the House impeaching Trump, so, too, will Pelosi and the Democrats be powerless once the Articles are in Mitch McConnell's hands.

Pelosi is looking ahead to House & Senate elections...Trump isn't going to be removed by the Senate, but they will end up losing any credibility or integrity that they had left with the American people. Mitch McConnell should be chased down by the media everyday and questioned about his attempt to make a mockery of Constitution with a sham trial.

Regardless, big gambles on both sides for the upcoming election.

BOOM!!

That Lev Parnas interview on Maddow last night was explosive. “(The Attorney General of the U.S.) William Barr was on the team and in on the scheme” . Let that sink in. The AG of the United States directly engaged in criminal behavior to undermine American foreign policy. 

Reportedly, Parnas agreed to do the Maddow interview because he’s afraid for his own personal safety and wanted to “get the truth out in case something happened to him.”

The plot thickens....

My top pick for total a-hole has been Trump's senior advisor Stephen Miller.

EDIT:

We now know from the GAO that Trump committed a crime (wrongfully w/holding Congressionally appropriate funds/Ukrainian aid) to commit a crime (bribing Zelensky) to commit a crime (campaign finance crime/foreign interference in US election).

That’s quite a criminal hat trick.

Regardless of all the mounting evidence, the GOP senators will not vote to convict.  Period.  Some will, but not the needed 20.

They're quite happy with the money they're getting, no matter how they get it.

I truly feel sorry for all of those people out there that support or supported this horrible president. They backed a clown, a criminal and terrible man. While a great number of people could see what he is capable of and stood in opposition four years ago, others backed the Donald. At this point, if anyone still feels he is the right person for president I urge you to get your head examined.
