Done ond day before some Congressional Hearings....If in the Senate they will get canceled...if in the House ...they will get Highlighted.....anyone know where they were planned?

I don’t know about those hearings. I just know that he wanted this trial *out of the way* in campaign 2012.
The Marxist is desperate to win reelection. obamacare and the stacking of SCOTUS depends on his reelection.
