    • Literally Storm
      https://en.m.wikiped…      deadsperm
    • nothing to hide, eh?monospaced
    • witness tampering, obstruction?jaylarson
    • reminds me when the gop was working on reforming health care behind closed doors. fuck this cuntryjaylarson
    • surely shit like this is a criminal offence? would a "normal" person not get arrested under same circumstancehardhat
    • @jay, this kind of hearing is supposed to be behind closed doors, exactly for this reason. Did Dems "storm" the GOP's secret health reform jackoff sessions?monospaced
    • meaning their hypocrisy is so damaging its making me sick—fucking nuttersjaylarson
    • 'secret health reform jackoff session'... cuz that's juuuust like an impeachment inquiry. Jesus, guys - 'your' side is blocking the 1st Ammend. AND LEAKING...PonyBoy
    • ... or point-blank spewing their own opinions of the day's hearings in their own lil press conferences. 'Witness tampering'... 'Obstruction'...PonyBoy
    • ... 'criminal offense'? Which side are you guys talking about? Who's blocking justice and who's controlling the narrative vs. who just wants some fucking info??PonyBoy
    • This is going to haunt the left a year from now. I've said a number of times—gonna say it again—You fucking Dems SUCK at losing. Poorest sports on the planet.PonyBoy
    • All you had to do was wait and VOTE THE FUCKER OUT... now you'll probably end up losing the House.PonyBoy
    • I might have missed the cable news spin on all this but how are the Dems blocking justice? The Repubs didn't want it investigated in the first place, right?yuekit
    • Dems need to let 'Congress' conduct the inquiry... not just the Dems in Congress. They've locked the Pubs out of the impeachment inquiry hearingsPonyBoy
    • They haven't though...what they are doing is interviewing witnesses with a smaller group of Congress people who are on the relevant committees, both Dems andyuekit
    • Repubs. Later on they'll have public hearings and a full trial if it gets that far.yuekit
    • It's exactly the same way Republicans conducted investigations when they were in the majority, they don't have a single leg to stand on here.yuekit
    • It's an impeachment inquiry... this is not How Nixon's or Clinton's inquiry's were handled. Removing a President isn't like having closed doors discussions...PonyBoy
    • Seems like what is actually happening is that Trump is so difficult to defend... he gives an excuse one day that turns out to be false the next...yuekit
    • ... on repealing a fucking healthcare bill (or the like). You're talking about overriding the votes of 60M+ people.PonyBoy
    • Do some research - Gingrich and crew had actual evidence and processed it through both parties. What's happening today is disgusting.PonyBoy
    • This is just the beginning. They aren't going to move from these interviews directly to impeaching.yuekit
    • lol @ complaining about the process. What about the actual substance of the allegations?yuekit
    • These interviews are directly related to whether 'Congress' impeaches Trump. Not whether or not 'Democrats in Congress' impeaches Trump.PonyBoy
    • You're a conservative but in the past you said you don't like Trump. You can see how he acts in public. Is any of this really such a surprise?yuekit
    • The Law uses the word 'Congress'... that means both sides should be conducting these interviews.PonyBoy
    • The people making the allegations against him ARE Republicans, not Dems.yuekit
    • Anyway - the Senate will toss this out in a second... this is a massive waste of time. Both sides will once again look like partisan assholes and will have...PonyBoy
    • ... wasted Millions just like on the Mueller report...
      ... for what?      PonyBoy
    • Because if the president breaks the law and abuses his power he should be impeached. Crazy to argue otherwise.yuekit
    • You're saying that as long as the Senate is controlled by the president's party, allegations shouldn't even be investigated?yuekit
    • Realistically there were a bunch of things you could have impeached Trump over. He is a billionaire with conflicts of interest all over the world who not onlyyuekit
    • refused to divest from his businesses while being president, he won't release any financial info at all. That's insane!yuekit
    • He is constantly giving evidence, on Twitter and elsewhere, that he couldn't give a single fuck about the Constitution or any legal constraints.yuekit
    • Democrats picked this one issue because it's very straightforward and clear evidence...but it's really just the tip of the iceberg.yuekit
    • by the way @pony - that mueller report?Khurram
    • now a criminal investigation: https://edition.cnn.…Khurram
    • ha! I just posted that article, Khurram right before seeing your note :)PonyBoy
    • Khurram... you understand that 'criminal' element in the probe is democrat / lefty... yes? CNN of course makes light of all of it... but some folks are fucked.PonyBoy
    • ... and it's not going to be Trump and team... at least not in the Barr findings.PonyBoy
    • Why are 'some people fucked' Pony? Absolutely nothing has come out about what they've found. In fact they say it became a 'criminal'mathinc
    • investigation because now they have the power to subpoena people. What else you got? Paedophiles in Pizza restaurant basements?mathinc
