“We can talk about the process, we will talk about the law, but today we are going to confront them on the merits of their argument, how they have the burden of proof and they have not come close to meeting it,” said Cipollone, who stated explicitly that he and his team did not intend to utilize the full 24 hours allotted to them, as Democrats had, to make its case.
“For anyone to argue there’s a burden of proof but then say, ‘But, I’m sorry, we’re not going to let you call witnesses ... that is called a rigged trial,” said Sen. Jeff Merkley . “That is the kind of trial you would expect in Russia or China, but not here in the United States of America.” Sekulow asserted that Trump had good reason to believe that Ukraine had interfered in the 2016 presidential election on behalf of Democrat Hillary Clinton, repeating debunked Russian propaganda that FBI Director Christopher A. Wray has said is wholly without merit.
Hunter Biden joined the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, in April 2014. At that time, Ukraine — and its fight against corruption — was in the former vice president’s portfolio. In the nearly six years since, no evidence of criminal wrongdoing by the Bidens has emerged. Democrats approved a second article of impeachment for obstruction of Congress after the president blocked several witnesses from testifying during the House inquiry and refused to turn over documents that had been subpoenaed.
“If they couldn’t get Ukraine to do it,” he continued, referring to an investigation of the Bidens, “they want to use the trial to do it instead.”
The Dem facts & testimony to support their cause are partial statements that misdirect & mislead, the opposite of the real meaning of their best witnesses. Only one had direct conversations with the Pres who told him no quid pro quo yet he guessed it meant something else
They destroyed Nadler an Schiff's case in 10 min, after 20 min they destroyed the administrative state arguments as well, this was easy to to, a first year law student could have done the same because the case the Democrats laid out is one big lie.

Useless effort, a losing case. President Trump should just resign just like President Richard Nixon did
Because they have no defence to Trump’s crimes.
Just say ‘begin defense by being offensive’ or repulsive. Either works
A freshman law student couldnof done better than this 😂😂😂that dude gives attorneys a very bad name !
GOP lawyers seem to be trying to make this go away by pretending the evidence presented already doesn't exist.
Scrap this country! Start a new!
