Based on the testimony today, the obstruction of Congress charge falls apart because Schiff’s subpoenas were illegal since there was no prior vote from the House as a whole to authorize the committee to issue subpoenas.


Yep. I remember pelosi repeatedly saying to the press that she doesn’t need a vote. ...I also recall Mark Levin jumping all over this on his radio show.

You can bet your bottom dollar that the rats are searching every law and court case to save their ass.

The one thing I really hate about FR-compared to the way other boards are done-is that we don’t have the ability to ignore morons. That’s you.

Can Roberts REALLY unilaterally force witnesses in his sole discretion?

Here is a statement from Senator Kennedy (R-La)that I read on Roll Call : “The chief justice is not the judge. He’s the presiding officer. There are no standards of proof. There are no rules of evidence,”..."And every senator, unless we pass a new rule by 51 votes in the Senate, is entitled to approach it his own way.”

But they chose not to do so because it would certainly go to court, and they wanted the have President Trump impeached by Christmas.


Actually, they wanted Trump impeached on the exact same day that Clinton was. Nothing to do with Christmas. Just shows you how sick the rat party is.

Side bar: Did ya all notice the tens of thousands of folks, all sorts, all kinds that, went wild with cheers, positive shouts and mucho love & support, for our great POTUS, Donald J. Trump in Washington, DC yesterday and across the entire country!!!

Well....you’ll see more Trumpies come next Tuesday evening in Wildwood, New Jersey (More then 100,000 tickets have been handed out), and more in Des Moines, IOWA and More In Manchester, New Hampshire. Be there, even though the low life Governor of New Jersey has shut a main road to the Wildwood rally arena!!!

The Democrat voters in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina should sit on their hands and not vote in the Democrat
upcoming primaries for obvious reasons...period!!!

Trumpie = www.donaldjtrump.com

Neil Cavuto is the new Shepard Smith. An idiot who loves hearing himself speak.

I stopped watching after Kaine in order to maintain a positive frame of mind

I clicked the mute button the second I saw his ugly psychotic face charge up to the microphone, "in order to maintain a positive frame of mind".

No - he doesn't have that authority.

Like little Timmy Kaine a minute ago - "this proves the case for witnesses is even stronger."

The fact that Lard@ss and Schittforbrains immediately raced to the Fake News Fakers after the defense team concluded is proof of how persuasive and fact-based the defense was.

There is no case. The sham witch hunt is obvious. The House managers lied explicitly and by omission over and over again. They are clearly dishonest, lying drama queens.

Cavuto did nothing post-hearing today but lobby for witnesses. Slimy POS.

"It was just 2 hours for them to destroy the Schitt Show. Professionals with the TRUTH don’t need 3 hours."

It was the SHORTEST two hours I've ever experienced. Just the facts ma'am.

I think they destroyed schitt in the first 5 minutes.

The ending was good. "It was a hurricane"

If the media reported news truthfully, people would be able to tie the events all by themselves. But no, they're too busy spewing their opinions and thus confusing the public.

Sometimes I wish I were more computer savvy. The hearing comments make me think of Schiff as the Monty Python knight at that bridge yelling “Tis only a flesh wound.”
