Did this impeachment inquiry stop the investigation of election interference by Ukraine?

The Republicans are doing an excellent job this morning. Jordan, Collins, and others are out making the same points

So another anti-trumped or Dem disagrees with Donald Trump and wants him impeached.

Shocked. I’m shocked.

Hardly high crimes and misdemeanor stuff. Get a life, Nancy.

Why does Mulvaney allow these Asshat traitors in the room with the president in the first place?

Liz Cheney says it’s disgraceful anyone should question his integrity. After all he served in combat and won a metal and of course that makes him immune to any scrutiny. Cheney apparently thinks anyone who serves in the military is beyond reproach. The military is full of liberal democrats who will say anything to get attention. Most are sleaseball general officers.

Point of information, we don’t actually have a transcript, we have a rendition, and it’s also not of the entire call.

“actually filled in more of the puzzle pieces.”

i.e. now we know why this is a complete waste of time.

Acting House Oversight Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y, told NBC News she found Vindman’s remarks “extremely, extremely, extremely disturbing” as she left the deposition.

Whew! Thank goodness she didn’t find them extremely, extremely, extremely, extremely disturbing!

I read this article and noticed a key point: Apparently the Republicans present had nothing to say.

IF his testimony was sworn in testimony, and not just more garbage fake narrative pushing by the Democrat Fascists Party, he perjured himself

If he perjured himself he violated his Enlistment Oath.

I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

They wanted to continue investigations after the Mueller report didn’t reveal anything. It’s all they care about, this is just a means to an end - being able to endlessly subpoena and “investigate” until they think they have something. It’s quite clearly a violation of due process, we don’t do fishing investigations but they’re doing it under the umbrella of “impeachment inquiry” - even though it has no backing by the rest of Congress or evidence of a crime.

They need to be charged with abuse of power. If this stands then all future POTUS’s can be impeached on day one by the other party. Republican Congress members should just begin “impeachment inquiries” into Pelosi and Schiff. It holds as much weight, which is none - but highlights the idiocy of it all.

What is most absurd though, every single politician engages in “quid pro quo” and has done since dirt. The hypocrisy is astonishing. Why on earth do we give any foreign government money if there’s no expectation of something in return? It’s all just dumb.

Well, we can add "Fake Concern" to the list of manipulative language that the Democrat-Media Party is using to propagandize their pawns:
  1. Fake news
  2. Fake outrage
  3. Fake concern
  4. ...

No law, this guy in his opening letter which was published a few days ago basically said “I did not FEEL this was right” I get it, how he feels is more important than what happened, what was said, and frankly, who gives a flying firecracker what this guy feels. An LTC no less. An LTC in DC or at the pentagon is the equal of a bag carrier. Elsewhere, we would call him an REMF.

Are there any Republican present? Were they allowed to say anything?

We don’t know since all this is being staged in a fake hidden kangaroo court.
