    1. @2001somws6 I did look it up and he did donate to predominantly Democrats. Now, you did say, “like Bush I think.” Will you be willing to admit to something you just said?

      Edit, I took out the word, to, as it wasn’t at the beginning of the words I quoted.

    2. @Benson see told you Epstein was the Democrat! I don’t remember if Busch got money. I don’t like or vote for Bush FYI.

    1. @E L *Trump has been working for the Russians since his first trip to Moscow in 1987. That trip was paid for directly by the Kremlin*
      _Barely a month after his (Trump) return from the USSR (in 1987) , _*_he made a splash by taking out newspaper ads in three major outlets, at a cost of almost $95,000, lambasting America’s allegedly free-loading allies._*_ The plus-sized ads demanded that the United States disband the Western security system altogether, which of course was precisely what Moscow wanted. Trump’s public attacks on America’s allies thus began—and have continued to the present day._

    2. @E L *Impeachment witness provides firsthand account of hearing Trump demand ‘investigation’ of Bidens by Ukraine*
      _Holmes said at the conclusion of the call, Sondland told him and other aides present that Trump does not “give a s — t” about Ukraine and was primarily interested in the “Biden investigation” that was being pushed by Trump’s personal lawyer Rudolph W. Guiliani._

  1. I love how he shut down those Republican members when they were about to engage in their circus antics and recital of conspiracy theories. Schiff is a boss.

    1. @Barny – Dearly Diane is Trolling. Comments on everything on different news feeds. Usually only one word. (Don’t believe she can string together a coherent sentence. Just like The Orange Buffoon that way.)

    2. @Reg U Dearly Diane’s one word comments reminds me of the Vinnie Barbarino character from “Welcome Back Kotter”. Who? When? what? Who. lol

    3. From what I hear, there’s been some questions raised as to the authenticity of this call memo. A witness to the call seems to be suggesting this memo doesn’t fully represent the true content of the call. I don’t know if this report is true or not, but I’m sure we’ll find out within a few days.

  2. Great job from Adam schiff these Republikkkans will stop at nothing to Distract the people of this country. They cry, cry , cry about Secret meetings . Now they get what they want and then cry about that. The Republikkkan party is dying by a 1,000 cuts defending this criminal president.

    1. @West Mike people shouldn’t be on here talking about their political views.
      Especially the people that resort in “name calling”. (pos)(racist)(Republikkkans)
      They hide behind their phone or computer screen.
      History is history. It isn’t going away.
      All that name calling just makes people look like hypocrites while they try to defend their view.

  3. Trumps statement regarding the Ambassador Yovanovitch sounds more like a Mafia boss than the President of the United States. Quote “she’s bad news and will go through some things”

    1. It is so disgusting!!! And it will even get worse. In the middle of her testimony he will attack her viciously by tweet.
      Please protect this woman!

    2. @C Bonnet It should not be the case that people who are doing the right thing are punished while the low lives get away worth everything: lying, cheating, threatening and are notvheld accountable.

  4. Schiff to Jordan: ” The gentleman will not be recognized until he learns how to wear a suit jacket like a big boy.” 😄

    1. David J 😂😂😂 I wouldn’t be surprised if Jordan was wearing Jordans or some other gym shoe- New Balances or something. Smh… they’ll wish they gave this process the seriousness it deserves once they’re all voted out of office.

    2. I was glad to see that somebody else noticed Jordan not wearing a suit and his glasses hanging off his face . Jordan he’s a creep .

    3. Thank you. I’m sick of looking at the clown who can’t even dress appropriately, like you’re not at the school gym’s office anymore.

  5. I am so happy to see Adam Schiff is NOT intimidated by the THUG politics Republicans have been playing since Obama Administration. It’s about time. These thugs refused to let Obama nominate a Supreme Court judge!

    1. @w r ……Desperately awaiting the day Trump is re-elected so i can watch you people suffer from trump derangement syndrome to the point you rinse your mouth out with a 6 shooter

    2. @Doesn’t matter you realize you threatened me and they say the Democrats and antifa is violent, there’s no point arguing with a crazy person,

  6. Let the repubs act like clowns. Let the people of the US and the world what they have become.. They do not represent the Republican Party I was part of. The house , senate and congress are turning blue.

    1. Bob Goss Your comments don’t warrant an intellectual response. You want to be talked to like an adult? Try speaking like one.

    2. @Cory Allen The party alignment flipped in the north in the 30’s, and in the South in the 60’s. Perhaps you are too young to know that. And please learn how to spell Democratic. You left out two letters.

  7. “The Gentleman is Not Recognized, The Gentleman is Not Recognized, The Gentleman is Not Recognized!” 🤣🤣🚨🚨🚨🚨Mr. Schiff-Savage!

    1. sfamerken12 Furthermore, Schiff cannot silence ANY point of order! EVER! Also, Barr would not show as the POTUS’ counsel! If you haven’t recognized that ALL witnesses have counsel present, EACH PARTY has counsel present yet the POTUS’ is not invited to have counsel present! Think about that for a moment! They’ve invited him to testify yet he CANNOT I repeat he CANNOT have his counsel present. NO DUE PROCESS! Schiff is violating the HoR own rules by not allowing points of order to be stated. You have to do your research! Or you are part of the problem!

    2. PS Wilson if only he were enforcing the rules. The rules are this: he cannot and I repeat CANNOT, EVER let a point of order go unrecognized! That is why Jordan threw a fit. Schiff is violating the very rules set forth by the House! So for everyone to cheer this on is a ridiculous act of juvenile behavior! The Dems bank on you not knowing all of this in order to manipulate you into believing their narrative. So tread lightly bc you are showing that you have no idea that your side is the bad side and displaying zero respect to fellow Americans by not only allowing this but accepting this as being Constitutional and right!

    1. @Airik Luna you forget Democrats have controlled educ for years. That’s why Americans are dumbed down, don’t know how to think critically, just follow what the govt tells them to do, reflexively and dependently. But who in the govt decides, and what if you disagree?? You call that freedom??

    2. @Raymond Petit Exactly. Republicans are protecting due process, fundamental fairness, and against interminable frivolous attacks to take down a duly elected president because “he wasn’t your candidate.” That’s the way democracy works. What you’re saying is you don’t like democracy. You want to crash the election and put your candidate in by hook or crook. Shame on you!!

    3. @sfamerken12 -what’s false about it?? Go back and look at what Democrats were saying when Clinton was being impeached. Clinton, btw, had actually committed crimes: perjury, obstruction of Justice, etc. The kinds of things Roger Stone was found guilty of. But Clinton got a free pass. Wink,wink. And didn’t get charged over Juanita Broaddrick either. The Clintons are slippery eels. Contrast what Dems said back then to what Dems are saying today. Complete opposite. Dems have no true and steadfast principles, they will say whatever they want for political expediency. It’s just “truth du jour.” It’s meaningless. Their word can’t be accepted because tomorrow it will be something different.

    1. @brett r YOUTUBE – Trump Ordered To Pay $2M After Misusing His Charity In ‘Pattern Of Illegality’
      •Nov 7, 2019.
      President Donald Trump must pay a $2 million judgment for improperly using his Trump Foundation to further his 2016 presidential campaign, a New York state judge ruled Thursday. The order appears to bring to an end the New York attorney general’s lawsuit against the president and three of his adult children over the now-shuttered foundation, which the attorney general alleged had engaged in repeated “self-dealing.”……..THIS IS FAKE TOO?

    2. @brett r GOOGLE: “- TRUMP LIES TO HIS BASE .” May 31 2017 Trump was among those who pushed
      the “birther” conspiracy theory and consistently questioned former

      President Obama’s birthplace of Hawaii.

      Kushner said that TRUMP LIES TO HIS BASE .
      He replied that Trump said that “REPUBLICANS ARE STUPID AND THEY’LL BUY IT.”

      Trump thinks his base is stupid. In fact, he had said that he likes them uneducated so he feels clever among stupids….They don’t know how to fact-check him. Clearly, that’s what HE thinks of HIS BASE SUPPORTERS…”STUPID”.

    3. Zenn That whole investigation was a scam.
      Robert Mueller looks like he has dementia up there so I wouldn’t count on anything happening to Trump when he leaves office in five years.
      You keep referring to the news which has been caught lying so many times that they have zero credibility so you should check your facts other places.

    4. Zenn if you honestly think they would let president trump continue as a Russian spy or anything to do with Russia regardless of his position you are sorely mistaken.

    5. Zenn I would suggest to you to look up the media and how biased they are towards Trump. Nothing they say can be taken as credible
      That’s the medias fault since they lied so much that we can’t believe a word they say.

  8. Jim Jones Jordan should be wearing his wrestling outfit….doesn’t he own a jacket ? Or is it because he wants to stand out somehow because he really has nothing to say…except to his audience of 1.

    1. Okkie Trooy I’ve been in Ohio for a few years now. I imagine he’s only there because of his link to OSU.

      OSU is everything in Ohio. Preferred over pro teams here. Also doesn’t help that this state is horribly gerrymandered.

    2. @Pieter Faber I wouldn’t want to insult little dogs by likening him to them. A scorpion is more like it, no…that’s not right either… I even hesitate to liken him to a jellyfish.

  9. These GOP should all be voted out of office. They do not deserve their positions. All they do there is to try to disrupt instead of doing their jobs. They are all doing the presidents bidding. What’s wrong with them?

    1. @greg hill Why should he/she go easy? after 3yrs off constant belittling from the fake president, and his cronies. If you don’t have the desire, to sling shot the gavel into gym Jordan’s face, that’s your problem. This is a public forum, to express what ever we desire.

    2. @R. Waldman Oh, I have the desire to do more than that, R.W. I’d like to attend to the eminently punchable faces of Don Jr. and Matt Gaetz, but spreading these ideas could eventually lead to someone doing something illegal…and I think we’ve got enough of that to deal with already. Besides, if I expressed what I desired right NOW, I’d be in all KINDS of trouble.
