“now on” ?
You’ve been a fucking joke since the day he took office. No one failed to notice reneged trade agreements, JCPOA, the betrayal of the Kurds and all the children you have in concentration camps you know.
Schiff made exactly that point yesterday.
Protip, if you delete all cookies for the NYT on Chrome you can read all the articles you want.
This Cipollone stuff is fucking unbelievable. He was in the room when Trump gave the order. He’s part of the original conspiracy.

You can also just add a period after the .com in the URL.

Well yeah, that’s how you insure your lawyer is properly motivated to defend you!
This whole kangaroo court is a farce. Its like putting the Mafia boss on trial when the jury are his underboss, consigliere and caporegimes.
Murkowski is a NO on witnesses.
Time to wrap this up for the weekend.
(Also: wonder if she’s giving someone like Ernst or McSally or Tillis some cover. Probably not…)
Shorter Murkowsky: “This is a shit show. No point in continuing it. Also, please get my NO vote on record for 2022.”

She gets to make a principled-sounding statement while placating fellow Republicans. Win-win.
The Fuck You strategy in full effect. Dershowitz laid it out in his defense of Trump. Yeah he did it, he does what he wants, Fuck You. Alexander confirmed it in his statement. Trump did it, more witnesses saying he did it are pointless, Fuck You. Murkowski seconds the motion. Congress has failed, you all know it’s failed, ha ha, and Fuck You.
I’m of the mind anyone saying they’re part of a failed institution which ostensibly exists for the public good has a very direct obligation to said public to either affect change or resign.
Republicans: Ha ha! Fuck you, peasant.

“Just because actions meet a standard of impeachment does not mean it is in the best interest of the country to remove a President from office.”
Indeed. Murkowski used slightly less cowardly and craven words than Alexander, but it’s still the same in the end.
Wait, that’s an actual quote? I mean, am I reading it wrong? It sounds like Murkowski is straight up saying it’s a sham trial?
That’s her official statement

I kind of think the two halves of her support are expected to interpret “no fair trial” in diametrically opposed ways.
