Hey, Chris here — what is your biggest question about the impeachment proceedings so far?
Since the hearings are over, It’s quite important to go through the legal steps of determining whether or not the evidence given to the public is strong enough to impeach under the constitutional definition of high crimes and misdemeanors. This discussion needs to analyse the charges including the charge of bribery.
Who do the Democrats think they’re fooling?
@Zakaria Abdalmomen there is no evidence
@Adam Eaton omg 😂😂😂
Why does your network continue to suck a** ?….
Where is Bolton’s sense of duty?
It seems like his biggest priority is to get a $2 million book deal while he watched his subordinates fry during the impeachment process…if he doesn’t testify, I see him as a national security issue.
@Jon 66 it’s the inquiry which is shameful
@Tom McDermott Did you actually watch it?
@Zooey of course they didn’t that would require them to actually want to know the truth and not stick their head in the sand.
Who tell me is not career driven?
Please stop the zany music, it makes these unwatchable.
Biden shouldn’t run. He is now too “impeachable”.
donors become ambassadors
nice democracy thing you got going there
stfu go sit in a corner now
jee jee – If you’ve never seen donors become ambassadors before you’ve been sleeping through past administrations from both parties. But, there are actually also people who think Obama never apprehended illegal migrants at the border. While Tump was “ripping children from their mothers’ arms to lock them in cages,” Obama merely protected them from adult and teenage predetors in chain link partitions.
Few people are buying the spin on any of this nonsense anymore,
What a sad lot of humans we have here.
Well, it appears that Gordon Sonland and others weren’t listening to Ambassadors Marie Yonovich and others, while Fiona Hill said “don’t do that” Gordon Sonland said Yes pro qou, when your leader said no qou pro on the front lawns. Chris, is there a problem with listening skills over there? Isn’t the job of leaders to listen to voters?
Career diplomats think they run the show…they do not. That is President Trump’s gig. Get over it.
Wow Chris have you read the pinned comments. Nobody has anything good to say bout you. Hahahaha
Trump will win by a landslide thanks to CNN fake news
How is the weather in Moscow?
@KvanEgten *East Berlin
@KvanEgten Great – 10 below. How’s the Schiff scam #4 going for you?
The diplomats swear an oath to protect and defend the constitution, not to the president. They have no obligation to cover for the president.
ShookOne Ldn these Dumbocrats is only motivated by money
Why Are So Many People On The Left Involved In Ukraine Companies…Even Schiff And His Cronies.
credible witness and an Anonymous whistleblower lol, Keep trying to make this narrative work it’s begging to be comical.
I.G. Mick Horowitz: “FBI employees were discouraged from documenting concusions and recommendations about sor
urces”.
Now, the Jews really overstepped on this one – literally everyone involved in this farce is Jewish. You just go down the list and it’s like wow, literally everyone!
How is the weather in Moscow?
@KvanEgten check the list, did you check the list, have you checked the list yet?
CNN is forced to serve up fast food.
“WHERES THE BEEF?!”
~circa 1980’s
Metaphorically “beef”= factual OBJECTIVE news . There is NO “beef “ at CNN. CNN fake news is a horde of FLEAS that spreads hate plague as they PLEASE. NO OBJECTIVITY, known fact.
Career statist parasites don’t impress everyone the way they do CNN.
hmm believe career honrable people or a proven liar hmmmm
@nevermore from past I believe them. But they didn’t have any evidence of wrongdoing. Just didn’t like Trumps policy and they got butthurt.
They all heard something from someone about something that offended them
They didn’t testify “against him” that’s propoganda
cnn is diarrhea and jeffrey epstein didn’t kill himself
