  1. And the attorney for the whistleblower”s” worked for Hillary and Obama? Nothing to see here folks. lol

    1. This is Canadian news. If you don’t understand how trump remaining in the WH greatly affects Canada, you need to go do some research. He is a worldwide problem and we should all be paying attention.

  2. This blocking of witnesses, gag orders on them, etc is EXACTLY what our PM, Trudeau has done and is doing without even trying to hide it and gets away with it. He almost brags about it. In short, if liberals/democrats can get away with it, no one else can. They get different rules and laws to follow.

    1. Of course Mister “Trudeau is a criminal” hahaha. We can see that your opinion certainly isn’t biased

    1. @L. Langhorn it wont pass the Senate…they know it, and yes it needs to be put to a vote for it to proceed…they have been “investigating for 3 years…are they really that incompetant? And all they do is fail, all the while galvanizing the next 4 years as Republican…writing is on the wall, all you got to do is look

    2. @Rebecca P I know it faces challenges in the senate, because the republicans are in trumps pocket, for now. It won’t face challenges based off law. They’ve been investigation trump for three years because he’s been blatantly corrupt during his entire illegitimate presidency. You look and you’ll see this, the facts are all there, in trumps own statements, documents etc. None of their investigations have been failures, but they knew the challenges they would face with the senate and have held off until they had something that was a clear and obvious impeachment, without being confusing for the public and members in Congress. Yes, I think part of their decision to hold off was political, but that doesn’t lessen his impeachable offence, which is undeniable via (again) trumps own statements/admissions and the documents. You just watch, as things progress, those members in senate will start to scatter and separate themselves from trump. They already have. You notice they’re very silent right now, it’s because they know what’s occurred and publicly stating to the contrary puts them in compromising situations. Fact is trump will be leaving office soon. If not via impeachment or resignation, it’ll be via the vote. When he does leave, there will be indictments waiting for him for his numerous criminal offences. 100% they’ve been working on strengthening that case quietly in the background.

    3. @L. Langhorn your very passionate in your beliefs…but, there is only one truth, and it always has the loudest voice and the truth is coming…its time for this to be put to bed, if that is the only thing we can be agree on

    4. @Rebecca P I’m passionate about facts and a functioning democracy that doesn’t cause harm to your country or others (harm which trump is currently causing). Facts are all there and democracy will always win, unless Americans want a dictatorship that is.. But I can’t imagine that.

  3. First of all the house needs to vote on this so called inquiry for it to be legit, so all these subpoenas are just a joke and not worth the paper they are written on…

    1. Subpeonas are a legal process, not a democratic one. Correct me if I’m wrong, but based on your comment it seems you are confounding both branches.

  4. First of all the house needs to vote on this so called inquiry for it to be legit, so all these subpoenas are just a joke and not worth the paper they are written on…

    1. Incorrect, there is nothing saying the house needs to actually hold a vote. A congressional subpoena is a congressional subpoena no matter the circumstances.

    1. You are a fool. Get with the program!!! Your president is a treasonous criminal in debt to Putin and is obviously using his position to make money ilkegally for his family business.

  5. Canadian news is guilty by association ! They wont tell you the whole story because they are in the pocket of the real criminal being investigated! ! Shall we name them ?

  6. What about subpoena’s for fast and furious which were ignored with the government selling guns to cartels nothing happened.

  7. Why aren’t the Democrats voting this through the house? They have the majority. What are they afraid of??

    1. Supposedly, There are some Democrats from areas the populous voted for Trump that don’t want to be put on record voting for impeachment out of concern that it could hurt their reelection efforts in the future. From what I gather, there are about 30, give or take, that are in this predicament.

  8. anything said in the Oval Office from or to the president is classified and therefore cannot be allowed to be put out in the public.

  9. They are trying the case in the kangaroo courts that our MSM have become. They have nothing and they know it, or else they would be racing full steam ahead with the supposed impeachment. It is an attempt to sling mud up until the election in hopes of steering more misinformed voters into their camp with this pathetic ruse. If these are our best and brightest, no wonder the world is such a bloody mess. Elect qualified candidates, not compromised ones.

    1. i agree. love your name. I don’t use my name either as I hold position in my community, that is sensitive to political voices.

  10. Both parties are corrupt garbage. The corruption and the lengths they’ll go to hide it ,of the Zionists has no bounds.
