Oh, as Senator.

I thought you meant to preside over this sham M Peach Mint.

Is Donovan a crazed lib, too?

Why wouldn’t the R Gov appoint a Repub, at least??

Breaking news! Rand Paul is getting impeached for inciting a heart attack in Leahy by saying what a scumbag he was during his floor speech.

“Another poster child for term limits.”

Agreed.

Leahy was elected to the Senate in 1974.

Let’s put it this way - I was in elementary school when he was elected.

NO ONE, regardless of whether there’s an R or D after their name, should hold office that long.

The ‘R’ Gov is not a friend to conservatives in the State. Flip-Flop Phil only won the last election because nobody wanted the pony-tailed, pot smoking vegetable farmer he ran against.

So a couple questions....

Was it gas pains?

I thought the Chief Justice must preside, according to the constitution?

Why would Roberts not want to be a part of this circus?

Does that make this hearing legal?

No way are his tests as perfect as they're saying. Bet they sent a full time nurse/doctor home with him.

No indication of what happened either....dizzy, fell, staggered...

Has he had his shot? When? Does he have any health problems. He's sure not quick on his feet.

If he's not in the Senate tomorrow...the Dems will have to huddle.

80 year olds never get better...living becomes a deteriorating state at a certain point.

So a man, openly critical of the defendant, is going to preside over an impeachment procreeding?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/patrick-leahy-trump-broke-the-law-congress-must-now-defend-the-separation-of-powers/2020/01/16/eddf579c-38a6-11ea-bb7b-265f4554af6d_story.html

“When Trump froze congressionally appropriated military aid to Ukraine as part of an effort to compel Ukraine to investigate his political rival, he broke the law.”

First lie. Trump claimed it was withheld because of corruption in Ukraine. There was an ongoing investigation that Biden stopped by threatening to withhold $1B dollars in loan guarantees until the Ukrainian Prosecutor stopped the investigation on his son and Burisma and was fired. And Biden gave he Ukraine six hours to do it

https://thefederalist.com/2019/09/24/watch-joe-biden-brag-about-bribing-ukraine-to-fire-the-prosecutor-investigating-his-sons-company/

And what Leahy, like many others failed to (selectively) remember was there was a treaty between the US and the Ukraine singed by Bill Clinton in 1999 to jointly investigate corruption concerning the two countries.

https://www.congress.gov/treaty-document/106th-congress/16/document-text

So if withholding funds by a POTUS or VP is illegal, Biden is hip deep in crime and any president would be required to investigate with the Ukraine. (I guess except Obama and Biden)

And, again, Leahy is presiding over an impeachment trial for a man he openly, and incorrectly, publicly lied about? Conflict of interest. Time for recusal. And good luck finding a democrat that hasn’t disqualified him/herself for the same reason. Libs can’t keep their mouths shut. And why does it have to be a democrat? If it just procedural I can think of a number of senators on the conservative side of the aisle that haven’t bad mouth the defendant. So they pick one that is critical of the defendant. Kangaroo....

Just as soon as the trial kicks off, his positions in the proceedings should be challenged and for the reason I just mentioned conflict of interest. With what he has said, there is no way he can be impartial. That ship has sailed.

It’s like trying to find 12 men/women to be the jurors at the OJ Simpson trial that didn’t know who he was. They almost had to use his past instructors from USC. They never saw him before.
