It wasn’t bad enough that Adam Schiff yammered away for what seemed like eternity over the 24 hours allotted for democrats to try to conjure up a case against Donald Trump. No, they had to reach for utterly incredible heights in hypocrisy and hyperbole. These are some of my favorite moments:
Trump must be impeached for criticizing impeachment
House Democrats claimed Friday afternoon in President Donald Trump’s Senate trial that his comments on Twitter, in press conferences, and at campaign rallies criticizing the impeachment inquiry were impeachable “obstruction.”
Rep. Sylvia Garcia (D-TX), opened the impeachment managers’ case on the second article of impeachment, for “obstruction of Congress,” noting that the president had told reporters that “there should be a way of stopping it, maybe legally, through the courts.”

Nadler calls Trump a “dictator”, completely missing the irony of his being able to even blather such a thing

Schiff warns GOP Senators that their heads could end up on pikes if they don’t remove Trump from office
“That’s not true,” Susan Collins said several times on the floor, shaking her head when Schiff cited a news report saying WH warned senators that a vote against Trump means “your head will be on a pike.” Risch also said aloud: “That’s not true.” Cotton laughed when Schiff said it

Max Boot said the Trump phone call was worse than Japanese internment in WWI or the Trail of Tears
The Washington Post opinion page takes a short break from calling everyone "Russian assets" for this legendary @MaxBoot take suggesting that President Trump is somehow worse than FDR's Japanese internment and Jackson's trail of tears.

Adam Schiff confirmed to us that no one has a right to investigate a Presidential candidate unless the candidate is Donald Trump
Today, Schiff and the Democrats are arguing that it is an impeachable offense for a president to investigate foreign corruption by a potential president from the opposition — even when, as in the Bidens’ case, former Vice President Joe Biden had a clear conflict of interest while his son, Hunter, was on the board of Ukrainian company Burisma.
According to Schiff just last April, it is not an impeachable offense, but an urgent matter of national security for a president to investigate his potential successor.
It is the president’s duty. That is, unless the president is Donald J. Trump.
I find this to be terrifyingly well grounded
Also terrifying is that Adam Schiff serves as Asst US Atty in California, actually prosecuting. Every single one of his convictions should be investigated. https://t.co/Qbj2DGDVxn

I have to agree. Given Schiff’s mendacity and history of withholding evidence, it would do justice to each and every one of his convictions reviewed. He is a despicable liar. And he added this beauty
Russia carried out a coup by controlling Trump
Lead House impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) claimed on the Senate floor Friday afternoon that Russia had carried out a propaganda “coup” by manipulating President Donald Trump.
Schiff, delivering the closing address on the third day of House Democrats’ opening argument on the first article of impeachment, claimed that Russia had done a “psychological profile” of Trump and manipulated him into believing Russian intelligence.
I enjoyed every second of democrats being eviscerated but not everyone did- including this notoriously conservative blogger
I suspected all along it would be very short since they have no facts and no legitimate legal argument. You cannot say blah-blah-blah for more than a couple hours at a stretch. Hope the Senate D's are preparing some killer questions for the clownish lawyers.

You have to wonder in which universe she lives
Love to hear about your favorites!
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
All their mindless braying from the Stupid Liberal Jackasses their getting so desperate since this is a Election year we all know that the liberal democrats are all Globalists and traitors Clinton and Obama were examples
I’ve learned a lesson from what’s come out during these hearings that my husband kept trying to teach me before now:
Wealthy people, including the children of wealthy people, get tired of merely being happy with money and everything it can buy.
And when they hit that point, they often reach out for POWER.
The Trump family is showing signs of this with Ivanka and Don Jr both seeking power & influence.
But Joe Biden’s son Hunter, Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Jr, John Kerry’s stepson Christopher Heinz have all been on boards of Ukrainian oil & gas company Burisma. These are “kids” who all have access to plenty of money from mom &/or dad.
So, what was Burisma trading big salaries for? Influence.
This power & influence crosses ideological lines: Left, Right.
Think Hunter is a Lefty?
Think Tucker Carlson is a Conservative?
They are friends.
Hunter’s dad made sure his son’s nose was kept full of candy.
Tucker’s parents left him heir to the Swanson TV dinner fortune.
Money is never enough.
We watch as a president who refuses to accept his paycheck by giving it all to charity either in or out of the gov’t, is said to do impeachable things for “personal gain.”
But, while DJTrump has moved from desire for money over to desire to have power, he certainly could handle a Joe Biden as an opponent.
He ably handled 18 other competitors.
But Joe Biden is NOT going to be the candidate.
He’s just “running” for the impeachment narrative.
He’s the useful idiot of the Clintons, Obamas and Pelosies.
My fav the conspiracy theory that never was. Ukraine hacked the DNC server.
Who the hell ever said that to begin with?
We will never know if the server was ever hacked by anyone, Crowdstrike still has the servers. We know Crowdstrike has made false accusations before.
In case anyone not following the soap opera.

where did hakeem jeffries get his educations? he is one great idiot. obviously he has never served in the military. gay, pencil neck shifty schiff ‘s reputation as an asst US atty in Ca. is questionable. his poor judgment and poor prosecution manner forced him to leave law. His peers hated him. drunk kerry’s wife’s husband died in a plane crash. wheels on his plane did not come down on landing. a chopper piolet with terminal cancer set up to evaluate the situation and crashed the chopper into the plane -all dead. the chopper piolet’s family was paid $3 million as a settlement. no one investigated the event. Roman, Juvenal xv .140 “what good man regards any misinformation as so concern of his?”
How is Trump a dictator? He’s just a seasoned executive in the highest executive office we have.
His job is to make tough decisions, and make them competently.
It’s unfortunate that threatens Democrats.
@kitt:
Why didn’t the DNC turn their server over to the FBI for such a breach? Could it be because the DNC had no guarantees that field agents would go along with the Russia, Russia!!! meme? And exactly who determined it was Russia, Russia!!! that did the hacking? What connection to Fusion GPS does CrowdStrike have?
@Nathan Blue:
the President can make decisions that do not require the congress to know before the action is taken. similar to taking a dump or urinating. maybe the congress especially the democraps being notified of every president’s bowel evacuation. WOW, another obstruction of justice-“pres takes dump without notifying Congress.” wonder if there is something in the Constitution about the President notifying the Congress of his bowel actions. the radicalized muslin gay ex pres sold this country out, the democraps don’t care.
@retire05: I knew you would catch the slight of hand Schifty was trying to pull.
I cant seem to pull up an article in Redstate but with a bit of digging, According to Telizhenko, U.S. officials told the Ukrainians they would prefer that Kiev drop the Burisma probe and allow the FBI to take it over.
(The FBI where Democrat scandals go to be eliminated with extreme prejudice)
The Ukrainians did not agree. But then Joe Biden pressured (as in blackmailed) Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to fire Ukraine’s chief prosecutor in March 2016.
The Burisma case was transferred to NABU, then shut down.
NABU officials met with alleged “whistleblower” Eric Ciaramella in the White House in 2016. What a clusterfark. CD Media reported: Ukraine has fired the prosecutor investigating cases involving Hunter Biden and Burisma and has transferred responsibility to the Soros-controlled ‘National Anti-Corruption Bureau’ (NABU) for disposal.
Who is this guy? Andrii Telizhenko, a 29-year-old former political officer in the Ukrainian Embassy who says he was tasked with helping Chalupa dig up dirt on Manafort.
@kitt:
The whole (or most of the) Russia, Russia!!! claim is predicated on the hacking of the DNC server. It is all based on the “opinion “ of Crowd Strike. The FBI has NEVER provided actual documentation substantiating that claim. Why not?
Why was Shillary never put under oath re: missing emails and why was she allowed her lawyer to speak for her?
Oh, right…..remember who was the head of the FBI at the time.
@retire05: Pity we can’t ask Seth Rich about it…
@Bookdoc: Why is Assange in prison, and not the Awan brothers?
@kitt: Ask greggie! He pretends to know everything to include knowing what Trump will do in the future.
@Randy: Greg honestly thinks he isnt smart enough to choose which lightbulb to purchase. Decisions and finding real answers for himself are not on the table.
The absolute best moment was Schitt entering into the official Congressional record something he said over and over he didn’t know was true: the “heads on pikes” threat. Of course, why would he stop now? Everything he’s provided for the record has been false up to now.
It was interesting that the “head on a pike” lie was immediately refuted by Merkowsky and Collins, the two most prominent targets of any such threat if one was to be made. That lie fell apart before his very goggle-eyes.
At this point, Democrats’ case looks like a bunch of 8th graders put it together.
Numbnuts of the week Schiff, “We must fight the Russians over there so we dont have to fight them here.”
Someone tell Northam that we are at war with Russia to have armed citizens might be a good idea. He didnt get the memo from Adam to expect Red Dawn.
@retire05: Because Hillary goes into convulsions when she is put under oath.
@kitt: I believe that those of us who took an oath to “defend against enemies foreign and domestic” have now identified those domestic enemies and it is time to start eliminating them. Prison is a good start.
