75% of the country demands witnesses and evidence. The GOP is going to reap their outrage.

Sheldon Whitehouse explained it all -- McConnell gave Collins a "hall pass" because he knows the amendment will be voted down.

Gotta wonder...did Susan Collins issue a statement that she was voting YES on witnesses and more documents because she knew that Senator Alexander was voting NO?

Election year protection?

I think we know the answer

Trump admits that he talked to Zelenski about “investigating.” So additional witnesses will not add anything. Still, would have been nice to have Trump still under indictment while delivering the State of the Union.

"The Senators’ question time in the impeachment trial just concluded and we have bad news: the moment the questions were over, retiring Senator Lamar Alexander of Tennessee issued a statement that his defining legacy in the Senate will be to cave to Mitch McConnell and vote for a witness-free sham trial."





Fuck him. I've called twice to protest tonight. 😡😡

We decided to uphold our Constitution and go down fighting. I am proud of our Democratic House Managers, Speaker Pelosi, and all who worked 24/7 to show the republican party, wh counsel and trump, to be the traitors to our nation we all know they are. I am sure Madam Speaker has the next step planned and is not done with his heinous orange piece of shit hineyness, occupying OUR White House. I hope our Dems shun every republican. No more 'Our friends across the aisle', malarkey. They are traitors to our country. Treat them as such.
