“It’s sad. Here’s a gentleman who came to the White House and all they had was never to let him have an easy breath. All they wanted to do is impeach him. They started the day after he was elected, even the day after he was sworn in. But this President came to Washington and....

....had, while the Democrats are just looking out for elections. This President should just continue to fight like he’s always fought, for himself & for this Country. Continue to put forth policies like prescription drugs & trade policies. That’s what makes this President stand..

....out, and he’s been amazing at it. The Democrsts have no message, they have no hope for 2020.” @RepDougCollins @foxandfriends Thank you Doug!

“They just wanted to get at the President. They had no intention of having a proper investigation. They couldn’t find any crimes so they did a vague abuse of power and abuse of Congress, which every administration from the beginning has done.” @RepDougCollins @foxandfriends

Can you believe that I will be impeached today by the Radical Left, Do Nothing Democrats, AND I DID NOTHING WRONG! A terrible Thing. Read the Transcripts. This should never happen to another President again. Say a PRAYER!

In the House of Horrors: They're now voting on a resolution saying Schiff and Nadler abused their power during the "inquiry".

This is a cliffhanger.

I heard that they may not actually be voting on these articles until this evening..... maybe at the same time as the Rally....

The Trial of John Roberts

The four-minute walk from the Supreme Court Building to the north wing of the Capitol represents not only a change of venue but a transfer of power.

Between the time Chief Justice John Roberts leaves his marble palace and enters the people’s house, in the time it takes him to walk 290 feet from his courtroom to the Senate chamber, his judicial robe will either have unraveled or remained intact. Either the pleated yokes and padded shoulders will sag, either the tight cuffs and billowing sleeves will soften, either the horsehair canvas and silken lining will slacken—either Roberts will have sundered his gown and shed his propriety—or he will do his duty.

In a Senate impeachment trial of President Trump, Roberts’s job is to preside.

He is to oversee the proceedings without overruling the way the Senate works. He is to view the process without voting on the outcome, because he has no say—he has no vote—in a trial that is a matter of politics, not justice...

Now reading into the record the closed and unfair process by Tim Cole (R-OK), including the denial of Minority Day guaranteed on House rules .... (which still makes my blood boil).

Any Democrat who pulls a Pelosi and publicly claims that they are reluctant, sad, prayerful, morose, or solemn about the sham impeachment they are ramming through today is brazenly insulting your intelligence and making a mockery of themself in the process
