Since y'all are so sure Biden is guilty, where is the DOJ investigation? Admit that this is not about finding Biden guilty but keeping the spoiled man-child y'all foolishly elected in office so he can keep "trolling" li-bruhls.

The GOP does not care one iota about rule of law. They want to stay in power.
Been asking the same question many times, I don’t expect you will get an answer.

I would like this to end quickly but it it would be interesting if Trump got his wish for a trial with more witnesses. This is exactly why McConnell wants a quick vote and no further testimony.

As it is now SCOTUS has decided to rule on the question which is the way it should have gone. Article 2 of the impeachment is now mute.

No, because the house controls the impeachment. SCOTUS can look at the cases outside of the HOUSE and following the past (Nixon, Clinton) will give the financial Documents to Rep. Neal.

Article 2 is going all the way.

Is quid-pro-quo really another name for bartering?

This is going to be a boom for the GOP. It's getting to the point where even the dead are abandoning the Democrats.

Go to your local community college and take a government and civil class.
and the Constitution left it up to the Supreme Court when there is a dispute, between the legislative and executive.

Dude. It's done. The SCOTUS controls the question now. That is the way democracy and the 3 branches work.

Tantrums wont change that.
