Did you explain to your wife that Biden wasn't President and therefore is not being impeached for blocking funds that Congress had authorized?

Did you explain that Trump is also blocking witnesses who could, presumably, testify to his innocence and Trump is refusing to turn over documents that could, presumably, clear his good name?

Did you explain to your wife that Biden was part of an international effort to deal with corruption in the Ukraine whereas Trump was pulling this extortion scam to benefit himself via the efforts of his personal attorney who was/is being bankrolled by a Russian mobster?

Or are you just going to go with the Putin's talking points?

........ the senior congresswoman from Denver appeared to not understand how guns work.
Asked how a ban on magazines holding more than 15 rounds would reduce gun violence, DeGette said:
“I will tell you these are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those know they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available.”


Dems use Schiff, Nadler and now DeGette, all terribly flawed, stumbling and confused self righteous disposable legislators as sacrificial lambs.


Pelosi is hands off and Schiff and Nadler never showed up in the senate...too late to recover from their outrageous behavior, lies and media aided marketing instead of legal facts.
It is just amazing how little these politicians know about something they want to restrict. And people wonder why Trump won. SMH...

I don't watch Hannity , so I will leave the synopsis of his show's content to you.

It was an absolute sham from day One. The entire " Russian Collusion" Hoax was set up first against Candidate Trump and then President Trump. Day after day of " bombshells' " , " Breaking news " " Sources" lies, innuendo , false accusations , all without any evidence whatsoever.

The entire " special counsel" grab of $ 30 million taxpayer dollars was not needed because from the very beginning, principal actors knew there wasn't any " collusion" .

No votes were changed, no voters threatened , coerced or otherwise made to vote for anyone else besides their individual choice. The DNC controlled MSM did their very best to muddy the waters regarding Russian bots, Facebook ads and the like to feed ignorant Americans story after story to build the suspense. They were going to get the goods on him.

But it failed. it failed because it didn't make sense. And if it doesn't make sense, it isn't true.

The fools that were out protesting last night are the product of the drumbeat of propaganda dished out by the leftist strongholds of the MSM, Academia and deranged Democrats.

Honest folks of all political persuasions can see what a farce this is. Pelosi and her party are going to pay for their mistakes at the polls next November.

You go to a Judge. Before crashing the door to cuff him.
Taking it upon ones self as judge, jury and prosecutor, is tyranny. Tyrants are culled in America.

The final poll numbers before today's vote are overall 48.1% opposed to impeachment and removal, 46.8% in favor of impeachment and removal. Among independents 47.4% oppose to 41.3 in favor.

2020 is going to be a bloodbath for those who support this.
