  1. I never knew a man could tell so many lies. He has a different story for every set of eyes. How can he remember who he talking to? I know it isn’t me, and I hope it isn’t you.

    1. He dosen’t care no scruples, no morals, no empathy, no dignity no respect for himself or others Amoral individual. So sad

    2. @j jones the people that voted for this individual are just like him so that should tell you everything πŸ™„

    1. @Jeffrey Meade have you an educational challenge…Great Courses has a good course on analytical reasoning.

    2. @Cristian Aragon
      Wrong! Sanders and Warren are Senators. They have an obligation to cast their vote to impeach. Excuse me, he’s already been impeached. What I meant to say is removed. Thank you.

    3. @Jeffrey Meade you probably have low life values like your King Donald Trump of cheating, stealing, bullying & lying. America doesn’t represent your hatred & having an evil heart!!! God first not the President!!!

  2. We get even at the polls in November. Let the Republicans know, we won’t forget and we won’t forgive……ever.

    1. @PJ Scotland l’ll take my chances. Why would l even care if the group that failed us all won’t forgive us for not forgiving them?

    2. Hopefully there will be an election. The goal to become dictator has been front and centre since day one

  3. Why did John Bolton wait until the last minute to finally reveal it after its way too late to change the sham GOP verdict.

    1. @MAGGIE LEONARD You mean like the whistleblower for the NSA that has to live in Russia because he will be prosecuted here if he returns?

    1. Hmoob Channel he’s their cash cow. The Republicans got paid very well this week. His super pack paid them off.

      America, the best country money can buy.

  4. A trial with no witnesses or evidence is a coverup. What are they afraid of…if the witnesses or the documents don’t hold weight to remove them so be it.

    1. @Jason Hess can you take care of 23,3 trillions in debt.
      tRump will not be able to pay for it. He will just add 1,2, more trillions this year alone.
      I don’t think I can handle it, if wall street go south. God bless GOP’s and trump supporters who will pay for it GLADLY

    2. Lea 0223 I think the reason they don’t want witnesses is because they are afraid that it will expose not only Agent Orange, but the Republican Party, and that it could bring them down for good

    3. @Jason Hess are you stupid. When Obama took office he must take care of Bush reckless economy.
      You can compare it with trump, he beats him up when it’s come to wall streets numbers.

  5. According to the GOP, people are above the law when they believe their actions are for the countries best interests. So…If somebody were to take out Trump, that would be legal? (Don’t worry FBI, I would never. But it’s an interesting hypothetical)

  6. So several people whom where in on the corruption, knew exactly what was going on, now defend him and pretend it didn’t happen ! What a banana republic !

    1. @berdboy That is because Trump and his lawyers are blocking the congressional oversight and they will fight them to the supreme court and that will take years. But we now know that Devin Nunes knew when he said it was a fake impeachment process and today we found out that Trump Team Lawyer Cipollone knew.

    2. @Harold Moore THANK YOU I AM HIGHLY EDUCATED. HOW MANY TIMES HAS THE WHITE HOUSE DIME STORE LAWYER SUCKANDBLOW REPEATED THE SAME LIES, NO DEPOSITIONS TRUMP ORDERED ALL WITNESSES NOT TO TESTIFY

    3. @Harold Moore DID YOU HEAR WH DIMESTORE LAWYER SUCKANDBLOW REPEAT HIS LIES ABOUT NO DEPOSITIONS, WHEN WE ALL KNOW THAT DONALD THE DEMON ORDERED ALL HIS PUPPETS NOT TO COOPERATE WITH CONGRESS. NOW THAT IS A GOOD REASON TO HAVE HIM DISBARRED

  7. The majority of the Republicans are involved, And that’s why they all are Literally falling apart over this impeachment Trial, Don’t be deceived folks, God is not mocked, What ever a man sow, He shall reap! πŸ€”πŸ‘πŸ»

    1. @Mike Privette WELL NOW THE WHOLE WORLD SEE JUST HOW TWISTED THE REPUBLICANS REALLY ARE, BLOCKING WITNESSES AND HIDING DOCUMENTS TOO SAVE YA’LLS CRIMINAL HERO, BUT THAT JUST HANDED THE NEXT ELECTION TOO THE DEMOCRATS ON A GOLD PLATTER, THEY DID JUST WHAT EVERYONE SAID THE WOULD DO, NOW THEIR EXPOSED COMPLETELY, NOW WATCH THE BIG BLUE WAVE BABY BOY ! πŸ˜πŸ™πŸΌπŸ‘πŸ»πŸ€”

    2. @Mike Privette YOU EVER HEARD THE OLD SAYING, THE SAME THING THAT MAKES YOU LAUGH, IS GOING TOO SURELY MAKE YOU CRY, KEEP LIVING BUDDY ! πŸ€”πŸ˜‚πŸ™„πŸ˜­πŸ˜’

    3. @jason Goodwin SURE PUTIN NEEDS 4 more years. DUH PARNAS CAUGHT with a million earmarked for DICTATOR DON. How MANY were NOT CAUGHT to date BEFORE DEMOCRATS WERE EMPOWERED

    4. @Dawn-Marie Langlois YOU REMEMBER GOD CREATED THE DEVIL, AND HE’S NOW HE’S GOING TOO DESTROY HIM ! πŸ€”πŸ˜ πŸ‘ŽπŸ˜‚

  8. Extortion in plain textbook example.

    (sarcasm mode)
    ” No wonder that Trump never once tried to *legally* pursue the Biden “Investigation” officially and through the FBI… “

  9. Why are Americans not marching on the streets demanding better from their Senate? Americans are letting their democracy slip away.

    1. These liars know the truth already – their orders are to make sure we don’t hear it. However, we actually have a moral compass and common sense. So, we pretty much already know what they’re trying to hide because the House Managers presented s BRILLIANT case – even with the unprecedented suppression and obstruction of witnesses and evidence. So, we know exactly what’s up with them….

      THEY ARE COMPLICIT IN THE
      COVER UP. PERIOD.

  10. No amount of revelation will matter to republicans for now we know they are very much in line with their cover up plain and simple

  11. “I’ve heard of John Bolton, I may have taken pictures with him, I take pictures with lots of peasants, uh . . . I mean people . . . but I don’t know John Bolton, who is he?” – Don Trump.
