Koko78 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Yeah, the part about Schiff getting a veto on any GOP subpoena is quite cute. Of course, the ranking minority member can call for a full committee vote on the denial, which is a bigger joke. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxx Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 2 hours ago, snafu said: The Resolution was always to set out the procedure. It was made to respond to Republicans' objections to the way Schiff is handling the matter. But this part is interesting. I wonder if Collins Nunes will ask Schiff and his staff members to be witnesses to their own investigation: "(3) To allow for full evaluation of minority witness requests, the ranking minority member may submit to the chair, in writing, any requests for witness testimony relevant to the investigation described in the first section of this resolution within 72 hours after notice is given for the first hearing designated pursuant to paragraph (1). Any such request shall be accompanied by a detailed written justification of the relevance of the testimony of each requested witness to the investigation described in the first section of this resolution." i would laugh pretty hard if they called Schifty as a witness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), the third-highest ranking Republican in the House, warned Tuesday that it was “shameful” for the GOP to question Vindman’s patriotism — or that of other witnesses testifying in the House’s impeachment probe. “I think we need to show that we are better than that as a nation,” Cheney said. “It is shameful to question their patriotism, their love of this nation and we should not be involved in that process.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in Mich Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 On 5/8/2019 at 2:37 PM, Bob in Mich said: Thought I would re-post this here. If we do actually get into impeachment it might be interesting to see how the backpedaling from today's Repubs follows the Dems actions from the Clinton impeachment in the 90's. Obviously the details are different but if we go down the path there will be similarities I would guess too. The other day I found a 1999 email I wrote to a friend expressing frustration with the Dems and their constant backpedaling with respect to Bill Clinton's impeachment. I recall too at that time my golf partner calling me the Raging Republican. You may think I am now a Raging Democrat but I view myself as Independent and have voted for plenty of Dems and Repubs and will likely continue that pattern. I wouldn't want anyone convicted of non-existent crimes but I also don't think we should ignore misdeeds just because of our party affiliation. I think we citizens should be more like jurors and less like the lawyers I see around here. Here is the 99 email: > I think I'm finally starting to put together some clues on this ... > > Many Clinton supporters view all of the Republicans as the Religious > Right Wing, therefor the enemy.

Tiberius Posted October 30, 2019 Author Share Posted October 30, 2019 Well, imagine that! The State Department officials, Catherine Croft and Christopher Anderson, said their optimistic view of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky clashed with a darker outlook of the new government held by Trump and an informal channel of actors linked to the president’s attorney Rudolph W. Giuliani. Anderson, a career Foreign Service officer, will detail efforts when U.S. officials tried to demonstrate support for Ukraine only to be batted down by the White House, including after Russian forces attacked and seized Ukrainian military vessels in the Sea of Azov in 2018. He is scheduled to speak to lawmakers Wednesday afternoon. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/testimony-from-career-diplomats-to-outline-trumps-dark-view-of-ukraine/2019/10/29/1681d293-f23c-476a-bdd8-35244e23d66a_story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
