Are you watching the impeachment theater?

I walked out.

I'm about to put up a café, but I'm putting this up first so you will have a separate place if you want to talk about the impeachment show. And I'm adding this for random entertainment...

AND: Here's a link to the TikTok video I thought was great — a come-to-life painting. I took out the embedded video, because there's something wrong with TikTok embeds that triggers scrolling in some browsers. Not mine, but it seems to happen every time. Too bad, because I find some highly amusing things I really want to share.

it's seems like the Facts are In

Now, that the democrats have Proven that; let him go back to Keeping America Great!

He withheld the aid! He withheld the aid! He withheld the aid!

Ahh, please just shut the f%@^ up!

Sorry, I fell asleep at the sham-peachment show. Someone was talking about President zelensky or maybe it was zelotsky. Anyway, someone had at the WH had sent an email to some Ukranian about having lunch while in DC last summer and...zzz...zzzz.

Anyway, they'll blather for a week or so. And then they'll vote to call more witnesses, at which time all the R's will talk about how this is clever 4-D chess by McConnell. Then they'll blather some more with some "incredible" who the media will say "will change everything!". but it won't. And Trump will be acquitted 52-48 with some RINO's joining the D's.

But it will be "exciting" - Yawn.

rcocean म्हणाले...

I wondered why all of DC is so Obsessed with Ukraine and then figured out its because lots of guaranteed loans and "aid" is being kicked back to the Congressmen and Senator's family members and friends. Y'know, we send over $1 Billion, and somehow $5 million ends up the pockets of Mrs Senator or Son of Senator Y , or Congressman X's foundation.

That's why they care so, very, very, much about our NOBLE Ukrainian Ally.

Cue sad trombone for Andrew Weissman'"republican" Chuck!!

It appears his "magnificent" earthly messiah (no, not Greta Thunberg, his other one) obambi held up congressionally approved foreign aid to Egypt but the obambi admin said it was no big deal because they had until Sep 30 of the fiscal year to release the aid.

Well well well.

Looks like old LLR-lefty Chuck is going to have to head back to Media Matters for his next little set of Andrew Weissman/marxist Lawfare talking points!

Good luck Chuck!

And oh yeah, sorry to hear about the complete train wreck your dem candidate hopefuls vomited up today with Biden saying illegals driving drunk is no big deal as well as he is now fully inboard the Open Borders train!! All the while Bernie is happy to consider tearing down all of our existing border walls.

Its no wonder LLR-lefty Chuck feels so at home defending his fellow lefties.

Are the Dems in Congress arguing that the President doesn't have the right and the responsibility to make foreign policy anymore, including investigating possible overseas corruption of one of his political rivals that could possibly lead to blackmail further down the line?

Nobody, I mean, nobody gives a flying fuck whether the "Interagency Consensus" wants or doesn't want aide to Ukraine. Who gives a shit what the "Interagency Consensus" thinks about anything? Nobody voted for it, nobody elected it, nobody knows who these idiotic bureaucratic, desk jockeys are.

As best as I can tell, Schumer keeps making motions to send subpoenas to various people, followed by a Motion to table the amendment, followed by long-winded speeches, which ends with 53-47 vote to table it. They keep doing this over and over and over again.

It is worse than a school board meeting.

Now, they wanna subpoena Mulvaney. I predict the answer is NO.

I can't even figure out what the whole things about. I even have friends who support the impeachment, because they hate Trump and who cares if the impeachment itself isn't legit, they just want to see Trump gone.

But those friends can't even explain to me what he's done wrong that warrants removal. They're more focused on the Russia stuff and don't know why it all changed to Ukraine, exactly.

I mean, obstruction of Congress? That's his job.

It causes my brain to shut down glitching whenever I hear them talking about Obstruction of Congress. As if that's a thing.

Please, to President Trump and all future Presidents, please obstruct congress more.

As I was walking my dog this afternoon, I realized that I no longer have "an open mind" or really any interest whatsoever in the impeachment stuff. I was quite seriously engaged in the late summer and fall, but I made up my mind, and there are no arguments that can be made that will change my mind. There are, I suppose, arguments, or exchanges, that I can imagine that will be made that will make people look stupid because they don't agree with me. But (although I pride myself on open-mindedness) there's just no argument left to be made that will convince me.

Chuck म्हणाले...

I haven’t been watching only because I couldn’t; busy with other work. But two things:

1). I now understand that McConnell’s piling on this marathon 2-day extravaganza is a profound insult and preposterous inconvenience for the Chief Justice, with oral arguments in the morning of both days. Shame on McConnell for that.

2). Did Pat Cipollone really claim that Rep. Schiff conducted impeachment inquiry interviews of witnesses at which Republicans were barred? I understand that through the usual Twitter feeds, all of which pointed out what a stone cold lie it was from Cipollone. Republicans from three different House committees were free to attend — same as Dems — and while some did attend, many of those who could attend didn’t even bother. Somebody remind me why Pat Cipollone is a major league legal player deserving of respect.

How is it possible for Chuck Schumer to go 12 hours of the day without speaking in front of a camera?

h म्हणाले...

Replying to dave begley who said "I can’t take it seriously. But it has worked to obscure Biden’s wild corruption with Ukraine."

I think the Democrats are on the verge of overplaying their hand. If they insist insist insist that there must be witnesses and testimony and documents, the point on which that is most necessary is the question of whether the Trump interventions had a legitimate policy objective at their heart. And that question inevitably leads to witnesses and testimony and documents on Hunter Biden and related issues as to how and whether and the extent to which US aid was used in a corrupt way. And remember, the Trump side does not need to show that there really was corruption here; the anti-Trump side needs to show that there was absolutely no way that a reasonable person could construe what we know as a predicate for asking Ukraine for an assistance into such an inquiry into such corruption.

So if we ever get to the point (which seems to be where the Schumer Dems are pushing us to) where we have an extensive investigation into the possible US aid corruption in Ukraine facilitated by and to the benefit of the Bidens, well -- in that case my interest might be rekindled.

Leland म्हणाले...

Just got back from dinner. Like so many restaurants, they have a TV for the patrons and it was tuned to the FoxNew's version of the impeachment. No sound. I could see they were voting on whether to subpoena OMB documents. I figured that would fail, because the Senate isn't interested in having the House set the rules.

The House had their rules. A new thing called an Inquiry that had no investigative powers, yet it gave the Democrats something from which they could send subpoenas that were meaningless because their was no investigation. The subpoenas were ignored as intended by Democrats. Then the closed the inquiry saying that had many crimes to choose from. After a short impeachment investigation in which the GOP couldn't call witnesses and none of the Democrat witnesses witnessed a crime; the House created two Articles of Impeachment. One was that the President wasn't allowed to conduct foreign affairs or investigations; despite both being in Article II of the Constitution. The second was that the President abused his power by reminding the Executive branch they could ignore subpoenas not related to the investigation of a crime.

Now the House wants to make the rules in Senate and insist witnesses be called and documents be obtained that were not called or requested during the House investigation. After telling the President he can't conduct foreign affairs or investigations; the House has decided to strive for more power and tell the Senate what to do. I think the end game is for the House to tell the President and Senate they can't nominate and vote to agree on judicial appointments. So for all those worried about squishy GOP Senators; they aren't that stupid even if Chuck Schumer is.

Aunty Trump: "Chuck’s plan to save the Republican Party ....."

LLR-lefty Chuck's plan to "save the Republican Party" just so happens to be identical to the democrats/leftists/marxists plan to destroy the republican party and deliver a transformed socialist American nation into the permanent hands of the democrats.

Gee, color me cynical but I dont believe that is an "accident" on Andrew Weissman-"republican" Chuck's part.....

Still worse would be if I turned every thread into an attack on our dear FakeCon Chuck.

I mean, if that were the case that would be terrible and wrong and certainly should not be tolerated. In that case, were it true, I should probably be banned.

Thank goodness none of that is true!

Schummer is seeking all these amendments individually, to slow down the process. Hoping McConnell will fold. That's not happening. The Dem impeachment managers are using the process to try their case on TV, hoping to sway public opinion against vulnerable Senators in November. What they fail to realize, is after the first one, everybody turned over to Murder She Wrote, reruns. So all their effort is lost on exactly the audience the Dems covet. I doubt the audience will give their show a second try.

I assume we are once again working on the premise that Democrats, and only Democrats, can be assumed to be above such things as "conflict of interest".

Just a coincidence.

Meanwhile, if Trump does anything that advances both the country's and his own interest, we must assume that he only cared about his own, and any other purported reason for his acts is a lie.

Yes, that one. It is set up for a sequel because the last we saw of the kidnapped daughter was her heading to witness protection and in the final scene we saw what appeared to be the mentoring of a new Sicario by the man he thought had been his first kill. Also, the female agent in the first installment was not in the second movie so she could be brought back into the storyline, sadder but wiser.

Twilight Zone, Alfred Hitchcock and the impeachment hearings and it's all starting to make sense

The Supreme Court ruled, and Democrats normalized, that everyone has a right, and rite, to define reality in their own image. In fact, they established a State religion ("ethics"): Pro-Choice, selective, opportunistic, politically congruent. Here's to progress.


The party of twilight, who in their blindness imagine that they are the heralds of the dawn.

You couldn't pay me to watch it. In fact, I'm going out of my way to avoid it.

I’m perfectly fine with whatever outcome. - kay

You're perfectly fine with 63 million votes being nullified because the left is having a temper tantrum?

You really want to go down this road?

The "impeachment theater"? You mean the show trial? Nah.

Hello viewers around the Globe, I was despondent because i had a very small penis, about 2.5 inches soft and 4 inches hard not nice enough to satisfy a woman, i have been in so many relationship, but cut off because of my situation, i have used so many product which doctors for me, but none could offer me the help i searched for. i saw some few comments on the INTERNET about this specialist called Dr,OLU and decided to contact him on his email: Drolusolutinthome@gmail.com) so I decided to give his herbal product a try. i emailed him and he got back to me, he gave me some comforting words with his herbal pills for Penis Enlargement, Within 3 week of it, i began to feel the enlargement was surprised when she said that she is satisfied with my sex and i have got a large penis.

I was expecting to watch at least SOME of this Congressional Comedy Central production from DC, but then I got into the post just above about the short penis herbal product treatment offered by Dr.OLU. I’m still on the phone (“Your call is very important to us, and the next available Dick Expansion Specialist will be on the line to help you soon. You are #97 on the list, and we thank you for your patience”. It could just be me hallucinating, but the voice on that Dr.ULO answering system is starting to sound a LOT like Adam Schiff. Is there any chance he is moonlighting?
