IIRC, a decent majority of Americans wanted a vote on Judge Garland too...

Hannity could be Trump’s lawyer. Everyone is so mean. Strozk. Page. No Collusion. Suck it. The end.

Trump's lawyers have not even mentioned the Senate Impeachment Rules they are supposed to be debating in this time period. Not once that I heard did they attempt to defend the rules. All they did was make personal attacks against Shiff. Thought Shiff did a very good job arguing against the rules.

Sekulow is such a dweeb...

Does anyone care that Pat Cippolone lied during his brief and wooden remarks? Example: “Not even Mr. Schiff’s Republican colleagues were allowed into the SCIF” during impeachment investigation.

This is 100% false. Any member of the three investigating committees could attend, and many Republicans did. Does anyone care that a lawyer who styles himself "the White House Counsel" -- not, parenthetically, DJT's lawyer -- has proffered a falsehood or five to the Senate? And he's likely a fact witness in any real trial in this matter. Just a disgrace.

Turkey Waddle doesn't look happy as he takes a recess. Revolt by some in his caucus.

This is the duly elected crew. This is what the people voted for.

I stopped counting the lies. I would think both of these guys are going to have trouble with state certification boards.

“My brother (not on twitter): This guy (Cippollone) is like Will Farrell playing an impeachment lawyer” Karen Schwartz

Tweeeet! Edited a word to "Trump lover" and one tweet. JHU72, tone it down. Especially with the season approaching. No penalty, just a warning. Tweeeeet!

Walter Shaub: "Cipollone, whose conduct in withholding records and testimony may be unprecedented, has the audacity to complain that Schiff wouldn't give him documents. Then, he says Schiff is the hypocrite. This gas lighting is too much to take."

Seth Abramson: "Hard to underscore sufficiently how devoid of legitimacy in fact or law anything Cipollone is saying is. I'm unclear on why he can't just shout these words into a cell phone on a call with Trump, as that is the only person he is performing for here. I'm embarrassed as an attorney."

John Brennan: "During more than 33 years in public service, I never heard a government lawyer so misrepresent the facts & deceive the American public as WH Counsel Pat Cipollone just did in the Senate impeachment trial. Further evidence of the contagion of Mr. Trump’s dishonesty & corruption."

Jeff Greenfield: "Cipollone is making less of a legal argument and more of s Fox News audition. (Anyone count how many times he used the word "ridiculous"?)"

Guessing Turley Waddle is on the phone with the boss. Telling him he can't sell the fewmets.

Tell me truthfully, do Cippolone and Sekelow sound like these two??????

If only Senator Blutarsky had lived.

Schiff:

"The facts will come out in the end. The documents, which the president is hiding, will be released through the FOIA or through other means over time. Witnesses will tell their stories in book and film. The truth will come out. The question is, will it come out in time?"

John Ward on Twitter:

"I sat in chamber for entire Schiff speech. That was a mauling. Trump team thought they were there to debate process and Schiff ambushed them with a full-throated case for impeachment. Republicans were visibly uncomfortable. Sekulow & Cippolone responses were rambling & bombastic."

Schiff: "I'm not gonna suggest to you that Mr Cipollone would deliberately make a false statement...but I will tell you this: he's mistaken. He's mistaken." Schiff correcting Cipollone's false claim that Republicans weren't allowed into the closed-door impeachment hearings. Who's shifty? Jesus H. Christ.

Schiff is really good in a court room setting.

Stop the fight!— Moscow Mitch

Motion to table the request for documents. God, how pathetic.

Both parties are working within time restraints set by the rules. Trump's lawyers toss out lies, forcing the Dem's to spend their (valuable) time setting the record straight before moving on with their arguments.

Brilliant. Diabolical, but brilliant.

F*** the American people!

Schiff has spotted Trump a 20-vote lead and Trump still won’t play. Anyone wondering how Trump gets away with stuff? You’re watching it.
