Sure a lot of people with nothing on their contact page commenting on this.

Almost like they are Democrat shills....Schiff shills.....sounds like a disease.

I’m not sure why this needs announced right now. The vote won’t be till Saturday at the earliest. They still have 16 hours of questions and answers.

IF, and that’s a BIG if, witnesses are voted to be allowed I HOPE that Bolton and Trump have this worked out that Bolton will testify and totally exonerate Trump. I don’t think Bolton is so corrupt that he would make things up.

“...And as soon as the first witnesses are called, and Trump’s preferred will be blocked...”

Who can block witnesses??? The House managers can’t, can they???

75 percent of Americans want witnesses. The only ones who don’t are us on this site. Lol.

Don’t see why anyone thinks this is a bad thing.

Hunter on the stand is going to be one hell of a show, and that’s just the start.

Right. Just like he

One has nothing to do with the other.

Mitch is a genius on judges.

Other than that, he is an absolute snake.

That is depressing. Not much good for trump to have a democrat house and senate. I hope all these senators get re-elected.

I would pay to see Bolton answer Rand Paul's questions.

Question #1: "Why were you fired, Mr. Bolton?"

Question #2: "Can you provide us a list of all the foreign interests that fund the organizations that have employed you over the years between your stints in various Republican administrations?

Question #3A: "Here is a video clip of you speaking to an organization called the People's Mujahadeen of Iran (MEK), a group of Marxist Iranian exiles clamoring for the overthrow of the Iranian government. Is it true that the MEK was listed as a terrorist organization by the U.S. government before you joined the George W. Bush administration?

Question #3B: "Were you fired because President Trump resisted your push to invade Iran and topple the Iranian government like you promised would happen by 2019 in your 2017 speech to those MEK people that we just saw on videotape?"

If Mitch can’t get four Senators to close down this partisan witchhunt he has no business running the Senate for us .
. this is all on him.

My understanding is they have to vote to approve witnesses. That’s why Lindsey Grahamnesty is saying he won’t permit Hunter Biden to testify.

Why doesn’t Mitch just go rogue like Schiff did and dictate what HE wants. They didn’t follow ANY rules; why should we?

If you want to get rid of your Senator do it in the primary. Otherwise you are dooming this country and our President Trump to 4 years of hell. Imagine a democrat senate in an impeachment trial. Imagine Schumer in charge of approving SCOTUS judges.
