See no evil, hear no evil, set to acquit evil

Looks like they managed to extend this and yet the result will be unchanged.
No unity just war.
Remember who chose war knowing it would not change the outcome.

Oh, I think this will be fun.

Each witness is voted on. The Republicans are salivating over their witness list. If they get their witnesses, it's going to be a ball. If the Dems vote them down, it's a huge political negative. Can't say that Graham didn't warn the Dems...

While all this is going on, much of Biden's agenda hits a brick wall. Especially, when they start deposing folks like Pelosi.
Maybe, this could take months...

I am glad they will call upon witnesses.
I think of it as due diligence.
It's possible that testimonies will demonstrate once and for all that it was much more than just a few doofusses taking selfies in and around the Capitol Bldg. that day.

Let history judge whether it has been for naught.

Mercifully for most of us, they called off the witness thing and the predictable end that was never in doubt will come.
Maybe a couple of GOP who were voting to impeach threatened to change their vote of the charade continued.

Fall on your back and cry tears in your ears, you liberal bastard.
He is going to be acquitted, he is going on his Revenge Tour in about three weeks and he will be eligible to run in 2024.
And there's not a damn thing you can do about it.

You seem hopeful that this disgrace runs again. This is the best Republican for the job?

Just saw that the lawyers were going to subpoena Mayor Bowser who tweeted that she wanted no national guard presence. Maybe that sunk the witness ask, as it effectively killed the narrative.
Pelosi too but that would have been just fun watching her squirm. Maybe she called the third down punt.

Also, cable news commentary on this is nauseating.

@george-k McConnell is putting blame for Jan 6 squarely at Trump’s feet - but is arguing the constitutional point that the Senate has no jurisdiction to impeach former Presidents.

And that’s not a wrong position to take.

Yeah - I get that and the plain text reading is more in line with that interpretation.
The interesting part of that is that - McConnell pretty much agreed that Trump deserved to be impeached. It just became unnecessary once he left office.
A solid impeachment, as Jon mentioned. It’ll stand the test of time when you look back on the notes and what the senate said after it was said and done.

A victory for doofusses who like to take selfies.
And justice for imaginary attackers.
I'm sure the country is a better place for having done this.

Another record for Trump: the most bipartisan vote on impeachment ever!

McConnell’s vote does not faithfully reflect that position. If McConnell truly believes the impeach is unconstitutional, he should have abstained from voting. Abstention from voting as a deliberate action would be consistent with the belief that the impeachment trial is illegitimate

It'll stand about as long as the last one.
Hope you got your $3,000,000 worth.
