Chuck Schumer is outlining Democrats' opening offer for a Senate impeachment trial against Pres. Trump, detailing what he calls a 'fair bipartisan process.'

Trump 'believes he is above the law and accountable to no one': Rep. Adam Schiff

Democrats, Schumer says in the letter, are open to additional witnesses with direct knowledge of allegations Trump withheld funding from Ukraine in a bid to get the country to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, who served on the board of Ukrainian gas company Burisma.

Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer of N.Y., calls on a reporter during a news conference, Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2019, on Capitol Hill in Washington.

Bull

No

Poor poor Shumer he becomes more delusional every day

This guy...a joke and more... where is that old lady that us usually by his side...Nancy who

Do NOT listen to Schumer America‼️

chuckschumer SenSchumer Then why doesn’t the HouseDemocrats have the support of ALL the Dems and the any of the HouseGOP ? This is nothing more than a partisan political scam.

B S Chuckie no Repub support for your LIES

He just undermined the entire work of the house

Yup. We will see.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

And that is the F facts

Bag of Wind!!

No stranger to disappointment, SenSchumer also expected that his hair transplant wouldn’t look hideous.

The case for impeachment

I know as a citizen I don't get special treatment. If anything, to be honest, we are guilty until proven innocent out here in the real world. Make them all accountable. They are supposed to work for us. All of them!

Has he been at the Christmas booze already?

Strong? 😂😂😂 Democrats deserve the same consideration Republicans received in the House. Move on Schumer, nothing to see here!!!

You believe I assume,I believe & I thought is strong evidence. Chuckie you are out in left field.

🙄 every single democrat press briefing.

Impeach Schumer

Yes the argument of you being dumb as hell is strong

What is he smoking?

No Republicans in the Senate are going to vote against Trump.

Hellllo

the one witness who had a 1st hand account to testify to said trump specifically told him he didn’t want anything improper to happen. Ol Chucky doesn’t have any legitimate evidence to even present.

Trump AbuseOfPower But still... GOPCorruptionOverCountry GOPComplicitTraitors GOP bananarepublicans Hypocrisy

LOL!!!

The Senate should apply the same rules of fairness as Schiff and Nadler did...let’s see what they think of that?

What a joke he just stated that there’s not enough evidence to continue without these four people so why is there an impeachment! They’re still looking for something instead of having something to impeach our president!

😂😂😂😂 so strong. 🤣 WalkAwayFromDemocrats

Fake news

Fakes news

They need to Sopena Sean Hannity!

Sen. Chuck Schumer: 'Many Republicans have voiced to me, and many of my colleagues, privately, that they think what the president did is wrong—but they're just not sure enough facts have been presented to make an impeachable case.'

Republicans should show them the same courtesy they received.

Majority makes the rules Chuck.

Bwahahahahahaha

Who cares what they want

There is a disconnect between House Democrats 'compelling', 'abundance of evidence' claims and Senate Democrats' demand for new witnesses.🤣 Bottom line: House Democrats could have pressed for more evidence. Why didn't they wait for the decision of the court?🤔

Why should they get what they want when the minority in the House didn’t get any witnesses they wanted?

Americans deserve to hear the sworn truth directly from all of those involved. Those who don’t want to know, don’t have to listen. 🇺🇸 ⚖️ Testify UnderOath GOTV SCOTUS

Seanate witness list Adam Schiff Hunter, Joe Biden 'whistleblower' Rudy Gulianni

The house decided in their hearings what could be asked and who. So too bad if the senate does the same thing. The house set their rules so I guess the senate can do the same right?

What about calling out ABC news and the rest of the Democrat mainstream media when they lied and said the fake dossier wasn't used for the FISA warrants! America has lost all confidence in ABC and the Democrat mainstream media!

All Democrat requests should be denied. Just like in the House.

The Media Mob ignored HRC’s bought and paid for dirty Russian dossier while pretending to care about Foreign Election interference. They only care about something if they can bludgeon Trump FakeNewsStateTV

Good luck 🍀👍 in this - y’all think we are fools , don’t y’all JerryNadler RepAdamSchiff wouldn’t give is the time of the day - now SenSchumer is up in arms - that’s laughable. senatemajldr says NOT A SNOW BALLS CHANCE IN HELL realDonaldTrump will be REMOVED 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

A Canadian hero is shaking the cru$aders from Syr/ia 7531

Given how the House Democrats refused every witness from the House Republicans, it is only fair to deny Democrat Schumer his request of witnesses.

Every time the GOP asked for anything during the house inquiry they got the finger from the Demonrats now he wants it fair. Sorry Charlie you don't get to call the shots this time around.

Fired Croonies

Trump this is Qui Pro Quo. That is how it works.

He'll be there to testify as fast as Trump releases his taxes

What's he talking about House didn't allow witnesses Either should the Senate what's fair is fair

Chuck going bananas again. There is nothing fair about the democrats these days, they don't even know the meaning of the term. The republicans are going to show him the right way to do business which he will probably call unfair and racist. Well Chuck, welcome to reality.

Don't waste your time. Its over!

Dems started this out unfair and partisan and it should continue that way

He’s useless

BULL SHI+ TO SCHUMER...FACT; that this is a take down of our country and to overthrow our Gov't. NOT JUST TAKE DOWN OF OUR POTUS. WE ARE WATCHING A SOCIALIST TAKEOVER by DEMOCRATS.

I'm old enough to remember in the Clinton impeachment trial when Schumer said there was no need to call witnesses in the Senate trial.....🤔

the Republicans should do the dems the same way tell them no to the ppl they want to testify

😂😂😂 NOW they want a fair trial😂😂

Yeah you Democrat’s should really be talking to us about a “fair” bi-partisan process. 😂

Is this guy for real?

There was absolutely nothing about the House's ImpeachmentScam that was bipartisan. When the vote happens, SpeakerPelosi will have bipartisan opposition. SenSchumer is a clown and a cry baby who can't do anything without Pelosi's say so.

He has met Mitch before right?

JUST TO BE FAIR.....I would not allow the MINORITY PARTY to call any witnesses...🤪

Fair!!! After the unfair sham the Dems pulled in the House! GOP GOPLeader senatemajldr Give then nothing!! SenSchumer SpeakerPelosi ImpeachmentSham Trump2020LandslideVictory 🇺🇸 MainStreamMediaBias

“Fair bipartisan “ Hilarious

House did there job now Senate will do theirs and Donald Trump will still be president and will win again in 2020 KAG dont you just love winning

That is so cute, take it to the basement and we’ll call you SenSchumer

Hey Chuck why don’t you do something for NY like controlling the lake level on the south shore of Lake Ontario. Where hundreds of homeowners are being floooded out of their homes. Maybe you can get that former Presidential candidate Kirsten Gillibrand to help you?

Nadler and Schiff already through bi-partisan out the window. Your not in control Chuck so shut the hell up.

Congress was not fair in their trial of Trump, why should the Senate be any different

Like the house😂😂😂😂😂

After the shit Nadler and Schiff pulled in the House, I think Democrats in the Senate just need to sit down and shut up, not expect a damn thing.

Democrats in the Senate should be treated exactly as the Republicans in the House were.

Since when did the Democrat Clown Show become Bi Partisan.

Fair. Lol house was fair....nope. Screw Schumer

Really like the fair process in the House? LOL. You don't set the rules crying Chuck...

SenSchumer senatemajldr SenateGOP SenateDems SpeakerPelosi realDonaldTrump NBCNews CBSNews Mr McConnell I suggest you accept Mr Schumer’s proposal! You took an oath of office - the American people deserve the whole truth & nothing but the truth. Country First!

Good and the Republicans can call Comey, Schiff, Pelosi, Both Biden’s, and the list goes on. Maybe even Schumer.

The house event was certainly bipartisan, right?

Hilarious. The Dems still think they are running the congressional kangaroo court.

They claimed the House process was fair 😆😄😂🤪🤣🤪😂😄😆 so 🖕🖕 and your partisan unfair process.

REPORTED TWEET TO TWITTER WAS OKAYED 👍

LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

He comes the New York war machine. Globalistsheadquarters Globalistshub brought to you in part by porn hub. The largest supply chain predatory profiteering.

Bring someone who’s firsthand knowledge can be heard!!

What does the Republicans know about “ Fair bipartisan process.”

MoscowMitchMcTreason & LeningradLindsey don't like rules or sworn oaths.

Ha

But, MoscowMitchMcConnell is NOT fair and will answer no to this!

I say they don't send the articles to the Senate. Let's have our election, take the Senate, and then remove him if he manages to steal another election.

Offer? We don’t need no stinking offer.

Then we know the GOP will reject it. Fairness is antithetical to their goals.

Looking forward to the same fair and bipartisan proceedings we had in the House. Yes, that was sarcasm.

Lol. . .anyone who believes Schumer is interested in a 'fair and bipartisan process' is an idiot.

Someone tell Cucky SenSchumer to sit down. Dems overplayed their hand with this impeachment farce. How many times can you mislead the public and think people wont turn on you?

Oh no ...wouldn’t want any witnesses that could screw the up the set arrangements

The Senate should give Chuck’s offer as much consideration as Republicans received in the House

SenSchumer “fair and partisan” hasn’t been part of this sham process from the beginning. Why would anyone believe you or the other ‘Rats now?

🤣😂🤣No thanks cryin' Chuck.

Pointing one’s finger is a sign of.........

The pig at the slaughter house waiting for Trump shows you that they’re all in the same boat bunch of crooks.

DemocratsAreCorrupt stop their madness. Trying to usurp the American vote is criminal! Impeachment ImpeachmentHearings Coup

If the Socialists party (Democrats) can’t get the President on bribery, then there’s no abuse of power. Meaning nothing to do with Ukraine was wrong with the President. This can only mean the Socialist are abusing power not the President.

Barr and pompeo should too.

Oh! Now they want a fair process! These guys are delusional

Should give him the Sebate version of HR660 and tell ole Chuck to shut up and sit down

Wgat would be fair is for Nancy, Nadler and Schulman to step down!

“ Fair” you cant be fair you lie lie to America all you be time

Why should the Senate hearing be a “fair bipartisan process”? The House dog and pony show was nothing close to “fair” or “nonpartisan”.

The Democrats did well Presenting the evidence, But it was a waste of time, in my opinion as the republicans are there to rescue the Donald Trump from being Impeach! And for ever changing how future President do business.The Republicans and this President want to create a fascist

AMERICA don’t have time for that Democrats game ... just vote and finish that bs

Sorry, the dems don’t get to call witnesses. Same rules that Shiffty set up. Sucks to be held to the same rules.

That is hilarious !!!

Shifty Schiff and the whistle blower should be called to testify.

Sure Chuck. Fair would be you all go home and back to work.

I will be very angry if Senate allows Demosatans to call any witnesses! Demosatans will reap what they sowed! Senate needs to start with secret meetings just like thug Demosatans. Demosatans stealing my tax money I want back for their government overthrow

😂😂😂 you dems have no say I in this one just like you gave the repubs no say in your circus court!!

He’s asking for what the Democrats refused to allow in Congress? Maybe they should’ve done themselves what they’re asking of the Senate.

After the railroad the dems in the house just did to the republicans ..no thanks to anything the dems want..

Do not believe this liar.

Now he wants a fair bipartisan process? Where was he calling out Pelosi, Schiff, and Nadler for the house’s lack of a bipartisan process ? Crickets from Chuckie in that...

Sen Schumer can go pound sand.

Fair? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Make it as bipartisan as Pelosi gave the House repubs.

Give him the same respect CorruptDemocrats gave the republicans in the house!! MediaBias

No, next.

Bipartisan? Like the house trail? Democrats are delusional

As they should have too. Anyone who has been brought up in the scam needs to be made come forward. These people work for us the American people. Why is that forgotten. They dont work for Trump!!!

Chuck get a bill passed to restore the art of dueling for ones honor,..their would be a long line waiting to get at Trump

You can expect it to be as fair as the house vote.

Schumer can stuff his letter in a trash can. House Dems refused to allow GOP/Trump any witnesses, limited their questions, ignored due process and leaked like a busted water faucet. Senate GOP should ignore Dems.

Read most of the tweets related to this story! What can I say... Cult45 is referring to their cumulative IQ.

😅😅😅 Sorry you're no longer in charge

I suppose the Republican Senate will listen as much as the Democratic House listened to us.

Is this the way you do it Chuck

Just like the house was a fair bipartisan process, correct Chuck. What a joke.

BS to SenSchumer

He...he isn't in charge.

Its said GOD see,s everything ,,,GOD could testify against Trump & the Republicans will still be like the Three Monkeys

Deborahcox_caye I could be wrong.. doubt it but..time for a fair bipartisan trail was in the House not fucking Senate. House investigates and brings charges to impeach. Senate votes to convict based on the House charges. Why the fuck I know this and Schumer don’t RedWave2020

Dont talk about Bipartisan now that it's out of the House..🤡

Why start asking for fairness now? They didn’t seem to care about calls for fairness while they had power in the House!🤔

Going by House rules, the minority party doesn’t get to call witnesses.

It's nice to see Chucky has a sense of humor.

😂😂😂 the words 'fair' and 'bipartisan' are completely foreign to scumdemocrats Especially to the slimeball SenSchumer

The Democrats in the house didn’t give the Republicans anything now the Senate Democrats will feel the pain,,This has been a sham from the start

House will vote to impeach Senate will find not guilty Trump will still be president and will win again in 2020 then Democrats will go into meltdown part 2

So democrats in the House can run partisan hearings but expect republicans to have a bipartisan hearing in the senate? Sounds fair...🙄 Democrats are used to playing dirting while Republicans usually just back down. Not anymore!

Kind of like the witnesses that the Republicans requested in the House but were denied

It has been everything but fair and the world knows it.

Suddenly they care about a fair bipartisan trial.

Am quite impressed with the seriousness and professionalism most Congressional Dems are displaying throughout the impeachment process. A solid example of our elected officials capably carrying out their oaths of office.

Fair would be for Chuck himself to say, we don't have enough so let's call the whole thing off.

*Schmuck

Be ready for Democrats to demand all the fairness for themselves in the Senate that they denied Trump in the House.

Doesn't he realize he is the minority?

lmao! Congrats to Dems for losing in the Senate and given Trump a win going into the general election!

Schumer is a nasty serpent.

Great ! in what country is that going to be in ?

Chuck Schumer is a waste of protoplasm...

I kinda like the house rules now

Run the trial like house Democrats’ investigation. Let majority decide everything.

Not happening...should have thought of that before playing stupid games in Congress these last couple of months

No slimeball deals with Head Clown, no sir.

Hahaha NO!

I will trade a Bolton/Mulvaney for Biden/Shiffty/whistle blower.
