Senate passes McConnell impeachment rulesSenate passes resolution laying out a blueprint for President Trump's impeachment trial after nearly 13 hours of debate between House prosecutors and lawyers for the White House. Disgraceful and gutless action by Senate “Republicans”. Too afraid to seek the truth and be forced to make a decision. Dems win day one. Facts vs whining babies I honestly thought before today that there were some things I was Republican minded about and some things I was Democratic minded about. It seems like the 53 care more about a club and belonging to it, than helping the public hear the detailed truths about this situation. Sad.

Senate passes impeachment trial rules to punt on witnessesThe Senate early Wednesday morning approved rules for the Senate impeachment trial of President Donald Trump on a party-line vote that delays the question of whether the Senate should subpoena witnesses and documents until later in the trial. Republicans have just put their corruption on full display for the whole world to see. And the world is disgusted but not surprised. America, congratulations, you let yourselves be destroyed by a conman plastered in orange make up. Democrats beaten Satan no match for God fearing men and women in the senate. So Trump has given all these senators perks in his hotels, golf clubs, AF1, and whatever else. If they turn on him, he will fire them. So he has bought the stock and barrel, catastrophe and horrible disdain and appalling disrespect of our Constitution, Country & Constituents.
