MSNBC Nicole Wallace just said that when the lawyers were saying that they

were not given access to the videos and that the house managers did that to provide "shock value" they were totally lying.

Someone added that they put ominous music to a bunch of people saying "fight" which is editing to make the video something it isn't - which is also lying in this court.

EDIT: To add that he also called this a "snap impeachment" and that they should have spent a long time (perusing) the evidence but he also argued that dump should be impeached because they didn't do it sooner; when he was still president.

And it was Mitch Mcconnell that told them he wouldn't hold the impeachment during dump's last days.

And it usually turns out that what they accuse others of doing is, in fact, what they are guilty of doing.

Yes, out of context I know, but there is something hopeful about that term, whenever it arrives.

It's like having endless immunity to any act or any of the people in the admin these past four years, including any and all the rioters in the mob.........

and the only way to do that is to indict them. Otherwise it is a mockery of the process.
