They will vote on witnesses and additional documents. If that fails, which it likely will, the chamber will vote on the articles of impeachment.

The Federalist Society is Under Attack (Again)

Posted by Mark Pulliam on January 31, 2020 16 Comments

As has been widely reported, a recently-released draft advisory opinion of the Committee on Codes of Conduct of the Judicial Conference of the United States—a 15-member group of judges responsible for fashioning and interpreting ethical rules applicable to the federal judiciary—concluded that membership in the non-partisan Federalist Society by judges, law clerks, and staff attorneys is improper because the group’s ideological orientation would call its members’ impartiality into question.

The End Is Near

Posted by William A. Jacobson on January 30, 2020 13 Comments

With any luck, by this time tomorrow night, the Schiff circus will have ended its run in the Senate with a vote not to allow Democrats to 'Kavanaugh' the hearings. Perhaps there also will be a vote to end the impeachment trial in its entirely, by dismissal or verdict.

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on January 30, 2020 17 Comments

Another day, another desperate ploy by Elizabeth Warren as she continues to drop in polling in early Democrat primary states and nationwide. It would seem that she sees her nosediving poll and donation numbers as a sign that her bazillion plans to upend every segment of our economy and society don't go far enough.
