Republicans senators appear to be more focused, with less multi-tasking much less during the defense presentation. There was some notetaking at points by GOP Sens. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, Rob Portman of Ohio, Ben Sasse of Nebraska, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and Tim Scott of South Carolina during the lawyers' presentations
The Constitution specifically creates stronger protections for the speech and actions of lawmakers engaged in their duties. Contained in Article I, it is colloquially called “the speech or debate clause.”, “serves chiefly to protect the independence, integrity, and effectiveness of the legislative branch by barring executive or judicial intrusions into the protected sphere of the legislative process.
In presenting the former president's First Amendment defense, Michael T. van der Veen said Trump's rally speech on Jan. 6"deserves full protection" under the Constitution and mocked the House managers as forming an argument based on"total intellectual dishonesty." "I am showing you this to make the point that all political speech must be protected," he said."I did not show you the speech to balance out the speech of my client.
Of course they did.
Blah blah
Thé emplacement is a total waste of time and money.
LindseyGrahamSC must be compromised. There is no way this guy can be such a staunch defender of Trump at this point. What do you think Trump has on him. Pediophile tapes?
The defense is bad.
They are such a joke it isn’t funny GOP SAD
🙄
There Is A BIG Difference between “Fighting” for the basic human right of my faith and skin color to be recognized as an EQUAL in the eyes of law enforcement in The U.S., and “Fighting” to overthrow the government of which my family fought for, over a false claim of voter fraud
They’re taking notes on the grammar for their campaign efforts. This is an exercise made for TV. And the GOP Senators are shopping for commercial content
Felt like seeing Terrorist kidnapped victims on camera parroting what the Terrorists want. The videos did not provide the homer in they needed & looks as if they want to program viewers to their side bcuz dems used the word fight. truth Is singular lies are words words words
You mean co-traitors.
I watched the spin on words & it made me sick! Trump told armed people to FIGHT, not unarmed people watching TV! Trump saw those people were Proud Boys & his violent group; were going to murder for him. They would have killed Pence & Nancy; we all know it; DT Knew it too!
Only because they're looking for a way out.
Give them a break, Trump's been out of office and off twitter for a while now. Whenever they can hear Trump's lies their attention is perfect! If you a lie enogh times you start believing the lie, and the RINO Trump supporting GOP can't get enough of it! Very Very Sad!
Yeah more focused on BS and lies. How is it that POTUS 45 does such shady💩most of his adult life and never has to appear in court himself?
