I know he sounds like an idiot but why did people laugh when he was saying

[Maraya1969]

that all "these people" should be deposed in his office in Philadelphia?



Oh and then he said, "I didn't laugh at anything you said"

[Irish_Dem]

1. Because depositions in his office in Philly are preposterous?

This is not a legal case, it is political.

[Maraya1969]

2. Ok thanks.

8. Plus ZOOM!

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

3. He's an idiot who is out of his element

Their side was completely floored by the breaking news last night and apparently girding for whether it would come up today and it did.

The info, if verified, is devastating "in the court of public opinion" with respect to their case, although we know their GOP lackeys would ignore it anyway.

9. I went and got drunk.

What is the breaking news you speak of. Haven’t found anything yet!

Maybe should go to cnn...

10. Jaime Beutler from our state made a stement supporting the McCarthy phone call info...nt

11. The Impeachment Managers are going to bring in at least one witness

and a vote on that was approved. The witness would be Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-WA) who had been told by McCarthy about his phone conversation over the phone with 45 when he was trying to get the insurrectionists called off.

GOP Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler confirms the McCarthy-Trump conversation, adds: "To the patriots who were standing next to the former president as these conversations were happening, or even to the former vice president: If you have something to add here, now would be the time."

In an expletive-laced phone call with Kevin McCarthy while the Capitol was under attack, Trump said the rioters cared more about the election results than McCarthy did.

"Well, Kevin, I guess these people are more upset about the election than you are."

15. You are welcome!

4. Because a Defendant's Counsel in Philly Wouldn't Have the Power to Subpoena....

a Plaintiff's witness to force the witness to appear for his deposition in a case with jurisdiction in federal Court in Washington D.C. when the witnesses reside in Washington D.C.-- much less an Impeachment trial in Washington D.C.

If he did, the witness would simply object and seek to quash the subpoena and the Court would inevitably quash the subpoena and force the Defendant's counsel to either take the depoistion by ZOOM or travel to Washington DC to take the deposition where the witnesses reside

[Maraya1969]

5. That makes sense. And he did make a big deal about not wanting a zoom deposition.

He really is a kook.

[Stallion]

6. When Attorneys Supoena Non-Party Witnesses They Must Avoid ....

....causing the witness unnecessary inconvenience or costs and expenses

[Merlot]

7. He wanted to get VP Harris and Speaker Pelosi in his office in Philly

and let all the magas know when and where. He really thought it would be that easy.

People laughed because it was absurd, but it was also a threat.

[cry baby]

14. I think it was simply how he pronounced PhillyDelphia. nt

[fishwax]

16. that was the pice de rsistance
