Schiff pushed Volker to say Ukraine felt pressure from Trump>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Why, that is the reason why Shifty holds his meetings in secret with no due process in order to violate the Civil Rights of President Trump under color of law.

Expect more such Kangaroo Court nuggets. They do not amount to a row of beans with any any more weight than the usual propaganda.

The more Schitt does, the more foolish the Dems look to we Americans.

Biden brags about threatening U.S. aid if the Ukrainians don’t fire the person investigating his son and the media keeps parroting that there’s “no evidence” that there was any wrongdoing yet the Democrats are busy trying to prove that Trump was withholding aid when both the U.S. ambassador and the Ukrainians themselves swear there was no threat.

Upside-down world.

“Schiff said, “Ambassador, you’re making this much more complicated than it has to be.”

Schiff is just a perfect little Nazi, isn’t he?

Schiff certainly doesn’t seem to object to election-time “pressure” when the objective is to get Volker to perjure himself by parroting lies about Trump.

I wish I shared your confidence on this. Unless something else comes along or a witness lies or falls prey to Schifty tactics, they'll continue to try damning Trump in the court of public opinion. I don't yet have a feeling the Average voter whose political diet consists of poisoned MSM scraps is wise enough to see the forest through the trees here.

Trump is winning in the Court of Pubic Opinion. Check with hs re-election campaign. The same dynamic we had in 2016 is in effect.

The harder the Dems hit our president, the more popular he becomes.

The average voter knew shit from shinola in 2016 and will again in 2020.

The man lost the popular vote to the unsavory likes of Hillary Freakin Clinton. The affect of the opposition's shenanigans and their accomplice media can't be overlooked.

I don't yet think the good guys are ahead of this one.

Yes Schiff is a real dark hearted dark soul conniving bass turd of a human being.

Every question was loaded to try to get an answer that Schiff and the press could spin to “show” that Volker and Trump did the things Schiff was implying.

Volker shot him down at every turn.

No wonder Judge Jeanine Pirro coined the phrase "Sack of Schiff"

Every one subpoenaed to appear before Schiff should print out this transcript and return the subpoena with the letter and say I will not appear before you to try the same underhanded tactics with me.

Rightyoh!

She won the popular vote because of the City of New York, The City of Chicago, the City of Los Angeles, City of Boston and the City of San Francisco. The rest of the country was pretty much red. An urban vote wins the popular vote? Last I checked that counts for absolutely nothing.

You can see it here:

When Volker repeatedly declined to agree to Schiff's characterization of events, Schiff said, "Ambassador, you're making this much more complicated than it has to be."

Sounds like Tony Soprano doesn't he?

Enough of the "I am outraged!" Conservative factory.

When are Schiff and his co-conspirators going to be charge with Seditious Conspiracy?

U.S. Code § 2384. Seditious conspiracy

If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

(June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 808; July 24, 1956, ch. 678, § 1, 70 Stat. 623; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(1)(N), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2148.)

All our side has are words and strongly worded letters.

So far, it looks as if Barr is not going to do his job, or fulfill his oath of office as Attorney General.

I would love for the reverse to be the case.

But after years of hollow "BOOMS!", "TICK TOCKS!", and "BOMBSHELLS", I believe that nothing will happen to the coup plotters and the D.C. Criminal Class.

without them having done anything Trump mentioned in his notorious July 25 phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky

Editorializing much? It's only 'notorious' in the minds of partisan leftists.

Schiff reminds me of the Tim Conway skit on Carol Burnett where he's the chief Nazi interrogator questioning Lyle Waggoner. He had a little Hitler puppet.
