People were warned!
I’m certain readers here know this, but… it really needs to be posted.
Rep. Schiff closing remarks of the senate trial of Trump January 23, 2020:
If the truth doesn’t matter, we’re lost. Framers couldn’t protect us from ourselves, if right and truth don’t matter. And you know that what he did was not right. …No constitution can protect us, right doesn’t matter any more. And you know you can’t trust this President to do what’s right for this country. You can trust he will do what’s right for Donald Trump. He’ll do it now. He’s done it before. He’ll do it for the next several months. He’ll do it in the election if he’s allowed to. This is why if you find him guilty, you must find that he should be removed. Because right matters. Because right matters and the truth matters. Otherwise, we are lost.
And it is about time the media starts putting a mic in the faces of the republicans. This needs to keep happening.
People were warned . . .
Republican Cowards . . .
Traiters commit treason, anti-innovation morons like Bezos are knighted by the global elite.
Schiff authored/sponsored one of the least truthful documents of the whole Trump era, being “his” memo in response to Chairman Nunes’ FISA memo in early 2018. He also went on national television denying contact with the Ukraine whistleblower until he was obliged mumble something like “oh, you meant like be in contact with the guy…that kind of contact?” And who can forget him sitting on the transcriptions of the House Intelligence committee testimony that his committee voted to release until the acting DNI said he would do it for him if he kept stalling. But on the basis of “it takes one to know one” Schiff certainly is the ideal guy to highlight Trump’s problems with objective truth.
What do you mean? What was untruthful in his response to Nunes who has admitted to lots of untruths? Additionally, he has had to weave through confidentiality rules and laws considering the nature of his position and the topic at hand and people continually asking him to reveal information about the whistleblower that was prohibited from being released. With respect to all of that he handled these difficult situations remarkably well with a great amount candor given how much information was at hand, how much was caught up in frivolous litigation from an obstructionist administration, and the national security/ diplomatic nature of the facts.
Additionally, let’s not be distracted to the central point, which is a correct point, regardless of what you think of the person it was coming from.
