Can you tell us how AWESOME you think the President is?

that supposedly Graham and even Pence were supposedly warning Drumpf about Bolton back when he had just been fired...

But now, it's too late as the attack dogs have come out from all over. So they are going to smear the whole Neocon wing of the GOP!

Like he did Obama’s oath.

He hasn't lived that down.

I came back and expected to be watching at least an hour recording after the 15 (45) minute break but it was only that short Cipalong closing...

why did they bother with the break?

that indicated that the WH lawyers made a decision to cut the rest of their presentation short - possibly due to the Bolton thing (coupled with the Kelly thing). That then gave Turtle more time for a GOP caucus meeting to go over next steps, do a whip count, and finesse the threats of heads on pikes.

thanks!

I had hunkered down but then was shocked when he abruptly started summarizing what happened previously and then wrapped it up. I think he only went maybe 15 minutes.

both times where short, the rest I have seen live.

It's historical!!!

so tired

BREAKING: House Foreign Affairs Chairman Eliot Engel says Bolton told him on a Sept. 23 call that “the committee look into the recall of Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch” and “strongly implied that something improper had occurred around her removal as our top diplomat in Kyiv.”

I'm waiting to see whose side Elliott Abrams will be on...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

(am wondering if he's going over how to do the question process with a parliamentarian??? not sure)

Will be able to listen, but won’t be able to comment as much as I’d like for the first stretch :/

I heard Gymsuit was coaching people. Can they write things along the lines of "How did you first find out that Hunter Biden was acting on his father's behalf when he dishonestly took bribes and sold influence?"

Gish gallop!!!!!

The World According Jeff Goldblum.

Pretty good. He takes 30 to look into a subject and often from very different angles. Done of the topics are things he has no idea about like coffee (stopped drinking it years ago) and RV’s (spent a lot of time in them on sets but he’s never gone camping). Recommend it.

Mentioned Bolton and asking how they can have a full case without bringing in the witnesses and documentary evidence.

He delivers the facts. No spin.

also including an appending to the previous question about motives and how that begs to bring in the person who asserted the aid was held.

to Sondland, who was the Ambassador to the EU. And it was never brought up to him.

Glad he went back and tied the answer to his question to fix the answer to the Collins question. Witnesses needed to speak to the president’s motives as much as to the facts.

He's describing what the point was for Article II - OBSTRUCTION.

I think I get it. Originally, I thought they would all write questions down, put them in a hat and draw them randomly or something, I don't know. I've never seen this before.

and a subpoena was sent to Kupperman and Kupperman sued. They were going to send to Bolton and he said he would do the same. The Kupperman suit is still going.

The other deputies - Fiona Hiil & Vindman came.

agreed that was even more reason to bring Mulvaney in and get him under oath.

Look at me, criticizing Schiff, I'll shut up and move along.

Demanding the House goes to court to bring in witnesses, then in court argue that the House can't go to court to demand witnesses.

"So what" - argument made by Dershowitz

Is standard of impeachment in the House lower than the standard for conviction in Senate?

He is proving what a bunch of clowns are representing Trump.

Wouldn't you need witnesses?

They're so evil.

There is a jury in courts that reviews the allegations except for the case of impeachment, meaning the impeachment requires a "criminal" allegation.

... sense.

I'd bet he tuned out mid-first question.

I hate the format, but I'm listening intently.

Bet that would make Hillary smile.

Jason Crow is responding - that there is and bringing up Mulvaney...

This is a Good Day.

I love how many House Mgrs are going with “Subpoena Bolton” to every question.

My dog knows I'm very happy, as I have burst out laughing numerous times. He has brought three of his toys to me feet in the last hour, convinced that I want to play -- which I do while watching this!

Enjoy this, my Friend!

It’s my comedy night on ABC.

rather than career civil servants to conduct foreign policy.

The civil servants ARE the damn Executive branch.

I don't know, strikes me more of a two team messaging exercise than a particularly thoughtful process to unveil the truth.

thus can't be impeached.
