Swing-Vote Democrat Manchin Suggests Senate Censure Trump, Not Impeach Him

Posted by Mary Chastain on February 03, 2020 34 Comments

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) bragged about his bipartisan ways during his floor speech on President Donald Trump's impeachment trial as a way to point out the obvious: The Senate does not have the 67 votes to convict Trump. Instead, he suggested the Senate censure Trump.

Schiff: If You Don’t Convict Trump He Might Give Alaska Back to Russia

Posted by Mary Chastain on February 03, 2020 47 Comments

President Donald Trump has literally broken Rep. Adam Schiff. I've enjoyed the House managers, especially Rep. Zoe Lofgren, but Schiff foams at the mouth and rants like a lunatic. In his closing statement, Schiff made up a whole bunch of unlikely scenarios to scare the Senate into convicting Trump.

In Praise of Mitch McConnell

Posted by William A. Jacobson on February 01, 2020 96 Comments

Mitch McConnell isn't the flashiest person on Capitol Hill. To put it mildly. Chuck Schumer regularly beats McConnell to the TV cameras, and Nancy Pelosi makes grand pronouncements as if the Senate and McConnell don't exist.

CPAC Chair After Impeachment Witness Vote: Mitt Romney is “formally NOT invited to #CPAC2020”

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on February 01, 2020 57 Comments

Back in April of last year, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) lamented that the Mueller report left him "sickened" by Trump. Apparently, he still is because he was one of only two Republican senators to vote with the Democrats for more witnesses in the Democrats' sham impeachment circus.

The patriarchy is alive and well in the Senate's Democrat caucus, apparently. During a press conference on the impeachment side show, Senate Majority Leader Schumer scolded former Presidential candidate Kamala Harris who was laughing and cutting up in the background.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) decided not to vote for additional witnesses and documents in the impeachment trial. She lashed out at the House Democrats over the articles of impeachment and even took a swipe at sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) question to Chief Justice John Roberts.

LIVE: Trump Impeachment Closing Arguments

Posted by Mary Chastain on January 31, 2020 21 Comments

I'd jot down the lyrics to the song "The End" by The Doors, but we all know the Democrats will not stop investigating President Donald Trump. The Senate kicks off at 1 p.m. ET. They will vote on witnesses and additional documents. If that fails, which it likely will, the chamber will vote on the articles of impeachment.

Biden in 1999: ‘Senate May Dismiss Articles of Impeachment Without Holding a Full Trial or Taking New Evidence’

Posted by Mary Chastain on January 30, 2020 2 Comments

It's so WEIRD how politicians change when the president is not a member of their party. Look at what 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful former Vice President Joe Biden wrote in 1999 when he served as a Delaware senator.

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 Mary Chastain on January 30, 2020 46 Comments

Chief Justice John Roberts once again rejected a question from Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) since it supposedly names the impeachment whistleblower...even though supposedly NOBODY knows the identification of the whistleblower.
