“They won’t vote on A witness, they will vote on the ability to CALL witnesses.” — Judge Napolitano
That’s what a judge is for.
If I am accused of armed robbery, I can call the owner of the Houston Astros to my defense, on the grounds that when the Astros lost it put me in a mood to armed robbery. Of course the judge can tell me no.
Knock it off Cruz. No witnesses. It’s a trap.
When is the last time traffic-court Nap has been right?
He’ll plead the fifth.
You know before it’s all over Schumer will say it.
Seems to me that Hunter’s appointment, and Joe’s video confession tell us all we need to know. What will Hunter say that he hasn’t already told NBC.

“Knock it off Cruz. No witnesses. It’s a trap.”
Cruz is setting a trap. This is going to get interesting.
Cruz isn’t stupid.
Yep - and also letting the know that if the dems get to call any witnesses, the Repubs do too - and there ain’t gonna be a quid pro quo swap deal...the dems don’t get to nix like they did with the House crap-shoot (the non-dice crap)
