After 4 hours of “debate”, when the House Managers fought for an actual trial and Trump’s lawyers talked about Joe Biden, the Senate voted 51-49 for a Trump coverup, and against actual witnesses.  Romney and Collins (to this writer’s surprise) voted with all of the Dems.  The sham trial continues, and the next step is to turn over the US government to TrumpWorld to strip out what’s left of the American experiment.

Christ on a Crutch.

Elizabeth Warren got brownie points from me last night for having the guts and the intelligence to make John Roberts read this question out loud for all perpetuity.  This is women making sure that when history is told, it’s told correctly.

Be sure to catch Robert’s face immediately after reading the question.

Okay, I’m fixing to shut down the computer.

The last I heard Lamar Alexander will vote no to witnesses.  Susan Collins will vote yes.

Romney will be the only other yes vote.   They will be all over Murkowki to vote no.  She is so damn worthless.

See ya tomorrow.

Today, Adam Schiff had a mic drop moment when he was addressing Trump’s lawyers’ assertion that the House should have gone to court to enforce subpoenas to get Trump’s people to testify.  At the very same time they were making that argument on the floor of the Senate, Barr’s DOJ lawyers were in court arguing the House didn’t have the ability to use the courts to enforce their subpoenas.  When the judge asked the DOJ lawyers what alternative the House had, the answer was…wait for it…impeachment.  Schiff was masterful.  Watch it here:
