  1. Whenever there are hearings like this on tv, a serious question is asked and the witness always, ALWAYS! says “I’ve been advised not to answer that question” I dont think I’ve ever seen a hearing in which a witness has actually answered a question…….ever….never, not once. Why have these committee hearings in the first place. They are a waste of time when everyone knows these shady people are never going to answer a single serious question. Its infuriating.

    1. TheDalaiLamasGlasses because it’s all BS and the Dems are playing dirty, colluding with their deep state selves to eliminate a presidential candidate…..doing exactly what they are accusing Trump of (bribing a country to get rid of Biden, but I thought it was quid pro quo Dems?! Did that phrase not rate high on your impeachment polls? Lol)

      Except there is one glaring fact…..these phone calls first took place when Biden wasn’t running for prez, or even talked about. They had to wait for them to debate a few times to attempt this to fool your average American not following the facts and hearings

    2. @Dem Lem’s it’s not even about this specific committee hearing. Any hearing, idc what it’s about, dems, repubs, tobacco reps, gun lobby, impeachment, Hillary emails, roger stone. ALL OF IT. No one answers ANY questions. These hearings are absolutely useless for any indictment. Not one witness has EVER answered a question that wasnt just a stupid question to lead into main questions. The 5th amendment squashes any reason to do these hearings. It’s just for show. Everyone knows the witness is gonna skirt the real Q’s. Unless somehow the representative tricks them which is damn near impossible. The way they say “I’ve been advised to not answer” just makes me want to slap there blushing, corrupt cheeks and spit in there lying mouth.

    3. TheDalaiLamasGlasses no doubt, doesn’t matter if it’s this, Facebook, EA games, Twitter….it’s all the same “I’m glad you asked me that and brought that to my attention. I myself can’t answer that but will get my team on it and we will talk later”

      Lol

    1. @John Galt – Up yours. The Kurds killed tens of thousands of Isis Fighters while losing 11,000 of their own. Special Forces troops on the ground in Syria are angry at this Administration. You wouldn’t understand that because you never served your country. Don’t believe your a veteran. Never will believe it

    2. @John Galt – Do you even know what the definition of a troll is? Wow. You come onto a site you hate and comment. That is the very definition of a troll. You know that very well and you have the audacity of calling somebody that approves of this site a troll. Unbelievable!!! You don’t see me on any of the conspiracy theory, hater sites that you like. You never will. I don’t troll losers, they troll me. And here you are … trolling.

    3. @John Galt – Your world is falling apart. It turns out that Devin Nunes was part of the conspiracy to get dirt on Biden. He met with the corrupt Ukraine prosecutor that the entire free world wanted fired. Also, your cult leader said that “CrowdStrike” has the DNC server and is a Ukraine company. CrowdStrike is a cybersecurity technology company based in Sunnyvale, California, owned by an American. God, you people are so stupid. More to come.

    1. @DOUGLAS HOTCHKISS
      What do you mean that doesn’t make sense you’ve never had a job? Employers like it when you show up early!

  2. Volker–if everyone told the truth, I would never make any money. What’s wrong with you people? My income isn’t your priority?? I could go to jail

    1. Previous month I managed to receive my first five figure paycheck ever!!! I’ve been working for this provider on-line for 2 yrs now and I never been happier… They are paying me $95 per hour, and the most important thing regarding this is the fact that I am not that tech-savvy, they just asked for basic knowledge about internet and common typing skill…Superb thing about this job is that I have more time to spend with my family. I am in a position to dedicate quality time with my family and friends and take care of my children and also going on family vacation along with them very often. Don’t skip this opportunity and make sure to respond quickly. Here is what I do *acttoday48­.­c­o­m*

    1. Guilty of what? If you actually watch the real proceedings and not what CNN tapes together, there is absolutely no evidence that Trump ever did anything wrong. This is all fake news and a fake impeachment hoax. Do your own research and stop watching the main stream media. They all have an agenda. Seek your own answers without their input.

    2. @Amy אָהַב ok I am not huge political person by no means at all but if what your saying is true why won’t trump just go Under oath And testifie

    3. @Allen Thomas Because that’s just not how it works. If someone accuses you of murder, the person accusing you of murder has the burden of proof. They must demonstrate that you committed that murder – and any decision is based on how well the accuser did at making that case. You taking the stand and saying “I didn’t do it” doesn’t help your case. It doesn’t do anything. You’re clearly not going to crack and say “yep, I did it”, so there is no benefit to the accuser of asking you questions either. The stuff you see on TV where the person on trial takes the stand and cracks just doesn’t happen in the real world.

      At any rate, this isn’t even a trial. These are impeachment hearings. What you are seeing now is the criminal equivalent of a grand jury hearing to decide if it even goes to trial, and there is no reason the accused should testify then…or ever. They have absolutely nothing to prove nor any requirement to prove anything.

    He’s a military life style tool of the #MiltaryIndustrialComplex, of a quid pro quo of his own for the status quo. 😏 Anyone knows this if he’s, as he says, outside swallowing orders!!
    … Appears to be appropriate for a genuflecting after all. – Especially, when it suggests a contrarian to our nation’s constitution, — which is maybe what he ‘ACTUALLY’ fears??…

    1. @Bev Sputler Again – you’re an idiot if you think this is a possible outcome. Impeachment is not a legal proceeding; it is a political one. Even if he is impeached, there would then be a trial, and the jury would be the republican-led Senate, and even if the Senate “found” him guilty, he would be removed from office. He would not be removed in handcuffs because he would not have been found guilty of a crime. Even if Trump did precisely what the democrats claim (which you probably don’t even understand fully) – that he withheld aid to Ukraine until an investigation into his political opponent’s son was initiated – EVEN IF he actually did it and they could prove it, Trump has not violated any laws. It certainly wouldn’t make him a traitor. You just think that word sounds bad, so you throw it around.

      You are all over these comments – just loudly demonstrating your sheer and utter ignorance.

  4. Democrats can’t win in 2016 in the Russia hoax, so now they are wasting more of our tax dollars on another hoax! Trump 2020

  5. They all better have some good security! When a lieutenant colonel and family have to be housed on a military base for safety, this country has lost its way! Thanks to the deplorable trumpsters following the madd Orange baffoon down the russian rabbit hole!

  6. As a reasonably intelligent person, I am watching these witnesses speak, listening to the answers and then CNN says something totally different to the witnesses answer. Do I need to get my ears checked or are they speaking some other form of English to mine?

  7. The psycho-emotional expressions of all these Fake News and Late Show Comedicks – talking heads – they are the same. It’s a dead pan giveaway to the creature behind their [PR] masks; Public Disinformation and Deception is the name of their game. This is the perennial enemy of the people – [DS] disinformation agents – agent provocateurs – they present themselves as CNN MSM MSNBC ABC CBS PBS NYT WaPo USA Today along with their complicit social media network affiliates. Mockingbird Media Presstitutes all simulcasting their Fake News across the nation (and the world) – all dramatizing their scripts with the same psycho-emotional expressions. It’s plain as can be what’s really going on with them. Time to break this [DS] induced ‘Trance State’ reality – time to awaken to the Truth of it!

  8. Trump is killing GOP muder Republican sells America to enemy these traitor must be lock up now or impeach all at once…
