Intel Member ‘Stunned’ To Learn About Trump-Sondland Call In Hearing | The Last Word | MSNBC

    1. @Tattletale RED You sound so much like a political campaign commercial !!! You stated that we should ignore Political Party Candidates and start listening to Tulsi Gabbard. How exactly is she not a political party candidate. Or do you mean that we should listen only to the candidate that you support?

    2. @143freespeech nobuts I agree, lets figure out what crime to charge them with….. let’s see the Mueller investigation went 3 years spent 65 million dollars issued 500 subpeonas reviewed over a million documents, interviewed thousands of people had 20+ of the top US prosecutors on staff and over 500 staff and investigators, and they didn’t find anything, but wait!! The judicial committee immediately started their investigation right after the Mueller thing fizzled…. and they spent a couple million more dollars and they found…….. well…. nothing, but wait!! we now have the intelligence (?) committee led by that stalwart of justice Adam (“it was a parody”) Schiff and now we’ll surely find that elusive answer to our hundred million dollar question….. What is the crime? Well so far no luck but let’s keep our fingers crossed miracles happen!!

  1. MSNBC are just continually putting out great information and facts on these hearings. After the hearings I put on Fox to see and hear how they where informing there viewers. Fox news treats there viewer’s like children. But again it was more Steeple dossier and Hillary and that OLD CHESTNUT that OBAMA and the DEMOCRATS dealt with ZE RUSSIANS 1st. I could go on about how criminal Fox news is. Total respect for MSNBC right now. 👏👏👏👏

  2. I will joyously watch the trump ‘dynasty’ crumble into less than worthless dust. Even better will be seeing them all dressed in orange suits

    1. Zachary Fluke they still need to vote. And we know the Republicans will not vote to impeach him. Protecting Trump protects their own rear ends. I’m holding on to a thin sliver of hope.

    2. Mohsin Khan Unfortunately, they make up a large swath of the population. And they call themselves Patriots. An oxymoron if there ever was one. Or on their case. Just MORONS.

    3. @Danielle Adair Well Yes. Paul Manafort’s hair looks very different. But I thought that was because he was without his ostrich vest and python skin jacket. Without mine I look VERY DIFFERENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    4. you will see orange suits and it will be congress on both sides, And our President and our military are making it happen!!!!

    5. @CherBear Politically republicans are trying to end the impeachment inquiry because they do not want it to arrive in the Senate because if it does, and it will, the Senate has no choice, they must conduct a trial and not a clown show and then they must vote. They do not want this because it will be disastrous for the republicans. …

  3. I freaking love MSNBC without them we might as well live in a dictatorship (unchecked dictatorship that is)…

    1. Yeah and there viewership is up also! “NOT” all this is doing is making sure trump gets reelected! Keep your head in the sand !

  4. In these hearings, we can clearly see who are the patriots and who are the traitors. Yes, you GOP and all Trump enablers, are the traitors to America.

    1. @Michele Engel Hello, Please look into Deception Bytes on U Tube, X22 REPORT and SGT REPORT for starts, spend some time, I have more if you wish, In pursuit of truth is really good, make you laugh!! Take care!! Welcome to the Great Awakening!!!

    2. @Michele Engel These sites will give you the news, better than what you watch on TV You will know the truth, Then knowing the truth you will see the lies that these news programs are feeding us, My eyes are open now, Michele, Please spend some time, then tell your friends. Michele, we have to save the children!!!!

    3. @Michele Engel All these sites are under attack from U tube, U tube wants to shut them down,, Now ask yourself Why????

    1. I feel a little sorry for Sondland, he made a deal with the devil and was too naive to know it. I’m sure he will suddenly recall the phone call when he testifies.

    2. @Timothy Craig People think that Sir Isaac Newton discovered gravity. But it was not, it was the real estate racket, because since time immemorial, they have always known that so long as gravity held people down to the Earth, they were going to need a place to live, since people could not stay in the air. So they invested in land. The rest is history.

    3. @Hika RetiI don’t feel sorry for him, unless you are blind deaf and dumb you would realise what Trump is about over the last 3 years and he chose to join him. He also has no excuse because he knows that is illegal for another country to interfere in the elections of another country. I also think he lied to protect trump and paid $1m to the Trump campaign to get the position he held. Corruption everywhere where Trump is concerned.

  5. A big thank you to all the people publicly standing up to the Trump mafia:
    “A hero is someone who understands the responsibility that comes with his freedom.”
    – Bob Dylan

    1. @eric hoppe – I never said I believe every thing he has ever said. You made that up, and then you attacked that. So your comment has no relevance here.

      What I said was that the hearings so far have not been heroic because they have been full of hearsay which doesn’t amount to anything of substance. And that’s not some trifling observation on my part due to this not being a court of law. Hearsay or rumor is not just a problem in court. It is just as problematic, and therefore un-heroic, outside of court too. You know it, too.

      But that gets ignored because lying Shift and his ilk just want to attack reality TV star, billionaire, and President Trump, any way they can–whether it’s through fabricated dialog for a phone call that Shift was not privy to, or a false denial of a prior familiarity with the whistleblower, or rumor and innuendo from other people who were not privy to the phone call any more than he was. That’s completely illegitimate investigative practice and committee leadership, whether done by a Dem or a Rep or an Ind. And you know it too.

      I don’t agree with everything that Trump has done. Your lies about me fall flat on their face.

      But here you are propping up Shift and his parade of rumormongers and misrememberers as if they were somehow noble or valiant champions of the people. It cannot be because of the strength of the evidence, for that is actually weak. It must simply be because you hate the guy, and you will sink to any depths to enact your hatred against him.

    2. @Texas BEAST The ORANGE HAIRED DRAFT DODGER and FAUX NUZ created their own opposition, the Progressives! What I believe about TRUMPSKY is as irrelevant as hearsay. AOC and Ilhan Omar, and others were elected by people who do not even listen to FAUX NUZ, and they hate “IT”! The GOP was in control of both houses of congress. NO THEY ARE NOT!! You better pray long and hard for a RED WAVE in 2020!! I am still a Republican who does not think the way you do. Guess who will not get my Republican vote in 2020!!!!!

    3. @eric hoppe – If you really care about his hair color so much, then your vote is vapid, misguided, and tragic. I’ve never understood the hatred against draft dodgers, since the undeclared, non-“War”, Vietnam “war” was illegitimate and un-Constitutional anyway, so avoiding it actually made sense. Our Founding Fathers were tax dodgers, and we celebrate them. You are contradicting yourself when you claim that Fox created its own opposition, and then turn around and say that the opposition did not even listen to Fox. Clearly the opposition was created by someone else instead, who indoctrinated idealistic voters to hate Fox without having to bother actually listening to it. And I catch every single media source that I have ever listened to twisting and distorting the truth, sensationalizing and exploiting in order to drive viewership, subscriptions, and hits. Neither Faux nor BSNBC wears a halo in that regard. And after the utterly laughable failed predictions in the 2016 election, as well as all the as-of-yet inept Dem plotting to overthrow him for the last 3 years, I just roll my eyes at any further predictions of his demise. I will vote for him as the best of current alternatives, but not as any sort of fanboi. I’m no brainwashed idealist. I’m a realist.

  6. …it is certainly not lost on the world, that Rep. Maloney highlighting William Taylor’s commendable academic and decorated bravery in service achievements (graduating in the top 1% at W.P. and actively choosing one of the most dangerous deployments of infantry), highlights trumps remarkable cowardice and contemporaneous Lack of any achievement. Money can not buy you Valor… mr. bone spurs

    1. Spanky Bonespurs was brave and courageous while William Taylor was overseas fighting for our country…dodging STD’s and the draft.

  7. About Sondland’s first walk back of his original testimony, I wonder if it was so awkwardly worded, just so Gym Jordan and his co-conspirators could mock it. In any event by the time this is over, poor Sondland will have walked back so much of his testimony, he will be able to go on Dancing With the Stars and execute a perfect moonwalk.

  8. The GOP is a travesty of Justice in enabling the racketeer in Chief in ther 2’nd attempt in forcing this country into authoritarianism with Putin’s Russia Shoring up their victories. Punishment must equal crime or they’ll clearly do it again need I remind you again would be the third time.

    1. Billy Thibodeaux
      In ONE election cycle the Republicans went from being tough on Russia and calling Democrats communists and telling them to go to Russia where, the Republicans said, Democrats would feel more at home ; to t-shirts that say “I’d rather be a Russian than a Democrat” ; to Republicans taking the side of Russia and Putin over their own country ; to Trump, the Republican president , saying he would welcome help AGAIN. And by saying AGAIN he acknowledges they helped him the FIRST time .
      Why is it that none of his base ever rise to ask why so many people in his inner circle and including his cabinet, had ties to Russia. Now we find Russians gave money to congressman and to the NRA who then took out political ads bashing Democrats and praising Republicans. Still his base refuses to acknowledge the connection. That is the definition of a cult.

  9. That a man of such valor would be demeaned by an assistant wrestling coach, (an assistant!) is beyond the bounds of decorum. But the assistant coach is a member of the Repugnant Party. So the bar of decorum is really low.

    1. John doggai: Jordan was revealed as the bully and loud mouth he is. Anyone else lined up to give future evidence know what to expect and can be suitably ready.

    2. And let’s not forget what Jim Jordan did by refusing to investigate the abuse that went on for years at Ohio State. It’s so interesting that the Republicans continually accuse Democrats of pedophilia, while people like Jim Jordan hide it. Virtually everything that comes out of Republicans mouth in the way of accusations is actually what THEY are doing. Do I need to remind anybody where that classic technique was pioneered and perfected somewhere in Europe 75 years ago?

    3. I’m tempted to say that Jim Jordan is an empty suit, but he doesn’t appear to actually own a suit….
      What a tiny, classless, ignorant punk.

    4. Gym Jim is a dwarf in stature, character and demeanour. One of his traits is not to look anyone in the eye while in conversation. This is a tell, to anyone that studies behaviour traits, that the trash coming out of his mouth is not of record, is not thought through, and its content is nothing to be remembered. Representative Welch cut Gym Jim’s balls off last week with a comment that had the audience to the Yovanovitch hearing laughing at Jordan. And that same audience gave Yovanovitch a standing ovation as she was leaving the room.

    1. Are you stupid…. He is the leader of the circus😆😆😆….. They have proved nothing except the Democrats have nothing😂😂😂

  10. Your president has no issue with selling high level govt positions to yes men, lackeys, thugs, errand boys, coffee pimps.

    1. You forgot , his massage chineese lady who was selling her contacts too. Your list is seriously short. Sadly to say .

    1. Exactly what many are saying world wide.. Ppl can see threw the endless amount of lies that’s been given since this Orange bull talking fool has fraud himself threw his whole lawless administration… Shameful WH in America’s history.

    1. Pardesi Life My nephew is an Army officer. So far, they seem to be supportive of their supreme commander. They must give em extra doses of kool aid. It’s so wrong to poison our Armed Forces.

    2. IDK How you think they liked Mr. college deferral Slick Willie Clinton? What will they feel like if Communist Bernie (conscientious objector) or Liz “I’ll massively defund the military spending” Warren wins? Don’t be a queef!

  11. That was brilliant! “I too would be glad to bring back the guy who started it all, #TRUMP”, hahahahahahahaha no comeback for that one #republicans

  12. I like presidents who honor the Constitution…NOT presidents who try to find loopholes in it…for their own personal benefit.

  13. I’ve spent my life trying to stay an Independent voter to avoid party loyalty even though I pretty much always vote Democrat. But, after watching what a circus the Republican party has become, I now consider myself a staunch Democrat because there’s no way I could vote for such a joke of a party.

    1. I voted for Republican presidential candidate three times. For over a decade I will not vote for Republican with lowest possible position. If a Republican party is compromised by the Russians. We need a new conservative party that isn’t compromised.

      And evenbefore they were compromised, they were no longer willing to participate in a democratic government.

    2. I have always been a “no party preference” voter that read and decided on each issue independently. No more. I am now a registered Democrat because of Republican behavior under Trump. I will NEVER vote for a Republican candidates or issues because they are Anit-American.

    3. Brady Martin, I was an independent for many years but changed my party to Democratic. You took the words rite out of my mouth 🇺🇸

  14. Sondland amended his testimony because he remembered something: he remembered that perjury comes with a jail sentence.

    1. If I was Sondland I cost my losses 1 million for EU ambassador position is not worth going to prison. I give up president since he claims not to know him…
