Gym Jordan and ilk will try like HELL to subpeona Joe and/or Hunter Biden and Hillary Clinton.

This vote on Thursday to legitimize the Impeachment Inquiry must not change the momentum we have gained, we can not give them anything. ESPECIALLY WE MUST NOT GIVE REPUBLICANS SUBPEANA POWER. I worry we may be doing just that by voting Thursday. I have seen it argued both ways. I'm not sure this issue won't eventually end up at Supreme Court, where I don't like our chances.

Gaetz, Meadows, Scalese, McCarthy and their putrid, traitorous ilk have only one goal. They're hope is to never even mention Donald Trump, nor quid pro quo, nor phone calls of favors to Volodymyr Zelensky.

They will gnash their teeth, pull their hair, and rent their (in Gym Jordans case his jacket-less) clothes, to make this impeachment about: 'Biden corrution'; that Ukraine was working with 'the Democrat' party led Hillary Clinton herself; that Brarack Obama (who spied on Trump!!11) Ukraine & Hillary and the 'Democrats', not Russia hacked the 2016 election.

THIS MUST NEVER EVER BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN! OH HELL NO! THEY WILL TRY, OH YES, THEY WILL TRY. DO NOT GIVE THEM THE CHANCE!

I watched a bit of Hannity tonight: Mark Meadows, Lindsey Graham and Newt Gringrich. Pure madness. Take 10 min and glance at Freak Republic. This is what you'll find...

Republicans want Hillary Clinton arrested. They demand it. Republicans want Barack Obama arrested. They also want James Comey, James Clapper, and John Brennan arrested. All of them arrested and thrown in prison. Demand it.

Now that Impeachment trial will now be mostly televised live, the WingNuts will want to say 'Deep State' 20 times an hour during their questioning, & 'Fake News' 25 times an hour. They will want to talk about how the FBI, and the CIA, as well as the Department of Justice, are corrupt and out to get Donald Trump

OF COURSE IT'S COMPLETE BULLSHIT---THAT MATTERS NOT TO REPUBLICANS.

Republicans want to hear these things. REPUBLICANS BELIEVE THESE THINGS. Republicans are sure all these things will be 'proved' during Donald Trump's Impeachment trial. Republicans are telling each other that this Impeachment trial will lead to them winning 'at least 45 states' next November.

I am certain that that's exactly what the Attorney General of the United States of America William Barr is working on right this minute. These things, and our very Republic, are at stake in the next 12 months. This Impeachment, I fear, is that important.

As for the Impeachment-So far so good. The strategy in the House has been impeccible. Shiff and Pelosi haven't put a foot wrong. All the WingNuts have are lies and character assassinations. Shiff and Pelosi have limited these both so far. However, I don't know what becomes of this nation if we fail here. In some ways I fear it's our last, best shot. Some days I'm sure America pulls itself back from the brink of Fascism, but other days I'm just as sure we're doomed.

The mext 12 months will tell tha tale. And right now it could go either way.

Sigh...

It is to establish the rules going forward. Pelosi, the Constitution and the courts have made it quite clear no “legitimizing vote” is necessary.

As for the Biden’s... good luck with that Hunter can go up there and say it is all true and he is guilty as hell and NONE of that would make what drumpf did legal.
