Shutting Out Americans from The Impeachment Trial
Republicans efforts to stymie the Senate impeachment trial continued this week with Senate rules committee Roy Blunt announcing that access by the press will be severely restricted during proceedings and even excluded completely at times. Blunt lied that these restrictions are the same as during the Clinton trial, but they’re not. This is simply a continuing effort by Trump enablers to make a mockery of these proceedings including even trying to dismiss the charges before a trial even happens, keeping witnesses and documents out of evidence, and coordinating directly with Trump’s goons in the WH. Cutting out the press?
It’s shameful, but not at all surprising.
