LaurieKellman House didn't have a case...

Trump did something officially wrong and now no one knows what to do with it. What’s wrong with calling witnesses? Chickens!

_Politics Impeachment was stillborn as it reached Senate. Blame the obstetrician.

So many democrats no longer care about the law. Such a shame

A correct outcome for a very incorrect impeachment referral.

ChristineNoelTV Good witchhunt!

Dems in the mud

The world's greatest deliberative body. Right? Senate

Even if the glove fits...

Why are you surprised! Next he will fake something to sway your vote for re-election. He must be voted out!

Whatever Moscow Mitch the lunatic in chief, Trump threatened their GOP accomplices with pales when compared to the wrath of the American people. I hope none of them feel safe- they’re not. votethemout

All that’s left to do now is to give Bernie Sanders or Tulsi Gabbard the nomination so we can expel Trump from the White House.

refusal to examine the truth with witness testimony is a disgrace. 'we the people',it is now on us. for 2020 and 2021 vote dem all the way,senate ,house,president, to propel usa into the 21st century. a vote for gop is a vote for corruption

MoscowMitch and his GOP senators following in the foot steps of Putin and the Kremlin... TreasonousGOP TreasonousTrump MoscowMitchCoverUp

Glad this sham is over so we can get back to Trump 2020... Funny to see this level of butthurt reminds me of 2016 😂😂😂

What did you think was going to happen? Never had the votes to begin with. 🤣

A disgrace

It might seem like a victory for Trump and Republicans but they have lost much much more. They have lost the last shreds of their conscience & soul, utterly lost their morality, completely lost their higher mental faculties - reasoning & perception. Very sad indeed.

Gutless Republicans

Bullshit Not hearing from witnesses

This marks the death of democracy as we know for the USA. They no longer have the moral authority too continue. Wow Sad . Will the world now turn there they backs on them? What a clown show.

Ummmm yea the house could have called a million witnesses but they didn’t sooooo

Good

An 'e' is the difference between SHAM and SHAME. That 'e' stands for ELECTION. VOTE in November! Vote the lot of these unpatriotic🏴‍☠️critters 🦨 out of office. 👊✊🤛

Trump and his administration should be referred to as The Cartel from now on.

75% of America wanted witnesses. It’s a trial and without witnesses it’s 51 cowardly Senators who just proved they will continue to spit shine the current squatter in the WH shoes no matter what he does. History will not look favorably on them. GOPownthis

whpresscorps Democrats already had 18

The GOP Has sold their souls. CBSNews BBCWorld nytimes washingtonpost

I am so done with the Republican party. They have proven conclusively that they love their power more than their country.

This was over before it started. So Pelosi needs to write her letter of resignation. Bow out gracefully or drunk. Which ever

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😃🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😃😃😃

I’m shocked.

What an embarrassment. As predicted. These two Democrats in (R) clothing voted to extend the attack on our Potus. The others saw thru this sham and the relentless attacks against President Trump. Please end this nonsense now gop. MittRomney SusanCollins DrainTheSwamp

Suck it DIMS!!!!!

Wow. A trial with no witnesses. The people’s answer hopefully will come on our next election.

2016 Democrats have tried and failed for 3 years to deflect their own crimes.

Sorry for you loss AP

Dem's never wanted 'witnesses'.. all they really want is the noise of not getting them. There's no way in hell they want 'Bidens' anywhere near publicly and 'under oath'...

So surprised it worked out like this (not). Oh well - he’ll go eventually.

Probably a coincidence

Hilarious that the AP is conceding how weak the case presented by Congress really is. Or were we not supposed to notice that?

Disastrous...

Very sad..drops the mic🤷🏾‍♀️

why was the chief justice playing dead during this so-called trial?

17 witnesses and 28,000 pages of documents

For those who supported 45 knowing full well he is guilty, be smug if you want to but before it’s all over, we will all suffer for his dastardly deeds, no one will get through this unscathed 😱

matteroffacttv No surprise there. No honor or integrity whatsoever.

Idiocracy has become a reality.

I’d pay top dollar to have been able to watch SpeakerPelosi at the time they official called it. All that hate running through her veins (that’s right she’s a Christian 🥱🥱🥱). She probably imploded.

Additional********************************************* witnesses.

Fantastic

Great News !!!

EllyMoo81569270

HORRIBLE‼️👎🏼😱🇺🇸⚖️

. The House Senators and Journalist have been saying for 3 years Trump's been in office, 'This is unprecedented.' Who gives a 'F' what precedented PRECEDENTED IS NOT LAW and that's how Trump gets by with doing what he does.

So no witnesses required in any trials in the US from now on or just Trump 's trial ? All citizens in US are said to be equal .

Americans must do the right thing to those senators.

DebDaleDaisy ItsOver

Kill all republicans. Weigh them down with rocks and throw them in the ocean.

GOPCowards

WinningAGAIN

RIPGOP Never again.

A sad day in America. A real blow to democracy and the rule of law. Shameful. The GOP should be ridden out of town on a rail. These traitors are a disgrace to every law abiding citizen. And why? Because dimwit donnie holds all the goodies and knows how to withhold them. Sad.

It's a big day for Putin. Brecht and a sham trial in the Senate

He should be exonerated

Correction: COVERUP vote.

Get your pacifiers DemocRats. We are laughing at you constantly as we win again and again and again.

Shocker

Class action lawsuit

GOP just lost the 2020 Presidential Election!

😂😂😂😂

America topples from its perch as the world's champion for democracy tonight.

Regarding of Senate RepubliKLANS shamelessness, realDonaldTrump will go down in history as ImpeachedForLife

MORE: The Senate rejected the idea of witnesses in President Trump’s impeachment trial, all but ensuring his eventual acquittal. Sens. Susan Collins and Mitt Romney were the only Republicans to vote for them.

CoverUpGOP CoverUpMcConnell TrumpIsCorrupt RepublicanPartisanCoverUp RepublicanMafia

So our Senate just voted to censor information from us. This must be what it is like to live in North Korea

Has there ever ever been another instance of a trial in the US were witnesses were not allowed to testify?

Wats next?

FOX5Vegas What in the hell is wrong with the senate? I am VERY disappointed that everyone is so PIG HEADED - makes me sad to be an American!

Disgrace

FOX5Vegas Great.

It's simple - the Dems shut the GOP out in the House, so in a hyper partisan political warfare this is the result. When elephants fight, it is the grass that suffers.

The House had opportunity to call all the witnesses they wanted. They said their case was overwhelming. If new info exists, they can call witnesses now. Yet we are supposed to believe that this is some kind of Constitutional crisis?

🤗🤗🤗🤗

This was always going to be the vote. The big question for Democrats is if they didn’t want Trump’s State of the Union to be a victory speech, why didn’t Pelosi wait just one more week before she marched the impeachment papers to the Senate?

RIP US Constitution.

This wasn’t a trial. So DonTheCon will never be rightfully acquitted, but he will be forever Impeached.

Well shit

Fuck them

GOP Will lose BIG, come election time! ImpeachmentTrialSham RIPGOP ImpeachmentHearing SenateGOPCoverup

The Republicans should be ashamed of themselves. They helped Trump make a mockery of you, of the Senate, and checks and balances. Smh You reap what you sow

Good, let’s move on!

Unbelievable

Waste of time and money. Anybody who thought it would actually happen is blind to way the politics actually work

Democracy:

Personally, I look forward to escorting CaptMarkKelly to the Senate floor and showing SenMcSallyAZ the door in November.

bennydiego How is this acceptable?

Yeah, who needs witnesses when we’ve already made up our minds that he’s not guilty of the crimes we know he’s guilty of

Vote every last one of these lawless SOBs out of office. SenateGOPCoverup

SovernNation Shame on the senators who voted no for witnesses and documents to be entered into this impeachment trial! Shame on those senators! SenateGOPCoverup Complicit shameonthesesenators

Oops

Cowards.

A trial without witnesses. Is this the new normal? Shame

Trump=WINNING!!!

GOP You failed America!!!

ShamImpeachmentTrial wrapping up.... No wonder people are fleeing the RepublicanParty

senate trial realDonaldTrump SenateTrial NewAmerica This is no longer my government. Log live the revolution!

Why are they being cowed by that stupid fool? Idiots. Not looking out for their constituents or the Constitution. They'll be sorry when someone not of their party takes it a step further. They'll have set a precedent.

And the idiot is going to brag about how he was exonerated but the American people (those with at least half a brain) and the whole world knows the truth. ImpeachmentTrialSham IMPOTUS

_Politics If the GOP wants the voters to decide, looks like it's up to us to vote every Republican out of office from the local level to the presidency. And all for what, a guy who doesn't know how to spell the word 'little'?

Lol...did anyone ever really expect anything different? There is no reason whatsoever not to call witnesses other than covering something up! SenateGOP corrupt. CoverUpGOP

No new witnesses or documents. Simply a GOP cover-up for Trump. Clearly a sham trial in real time. We will not forget SenateGOP

Little Marco Rubio Lying Ted Cruz Moscow Mitch Leningrad Graham. All failed to do their job today!

Hahahahaha oh my, your government looks like fools to the rest of the world watching the trial online...just saying. I feel bad for true patriots

Trump trial lawyer admits abuse of power is impeachable, previews 'temporary' defenseTrump impeachment lawyer Robert Ray defended the President at his historic Senate trial this week, conceding some problems with Trump’s approach to Ukraine while insisting there was no impeachable offense. One day after finishing that case, MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber presses Ray on the evidence Trump sought a Biden investigation, including Trump’s own words, and presses Ray on Trump lawyers’ presenting the “false” argument that abuse of power is not impeachable, quoting from past Articles of Impeachment. Ray partly concedes abuse of power is impeachable, breaking with his co-counsel Alan Dershowitz, but argues that the case is stronger when combined with alleged crimes. Ray also asserts that regardless of Trump’s intent, he is “entitled to withhold aid in order to see what the Ukrainians do,” previewing a “temporary” defense to address mounting evidence there was a quid pro quo.
