House Minority Whip Steve Scalise asks an excellent question: “What is Adam Schiff trying to hide?”
Schiff — the point man for impeachment — could at least try to explain why he’s holding all his hearings behind closed doors, with the public getting only leaked, and likely biased, accounts of the testimony.
To dramatize the problem Wednesday, 30 House Republicans stormed into the room that was to host Schiff’s next secret hearing. The chairman responded by leaving, postponing the testimony of Defense Department official Laura Cooper.

Here's my take. They thought the whistleblower would work but Pres. Trump beat them on this by releasing the transcripts. Now they are all over the map looking for a crime. In fact, this is looking more like a clown show. There will be no impeachment. So many democrats in red districts will not vote to impeach. Schiff is looking to damage Pres Trump so that people will not vote for him. It's not going to happen. President Trump's crowds at the rally are GROWING.

The Democrats don't want to impeach, they want the issue to pound President Trump with.

What they are hiding is perfectly obvious. They are hiding a lack of evidence. So they sit in the basement with a parade of ‘witnesses’ with nothing but a bone to pick with the President and then leak false information to a willing media. This is an act of utter desperation.

Wiley Coyote, meet the Road Runner. The democrat party is imploding even with the support and enabling of the media. The 2020 election is going to be one for the books. Americans are determined to take back this country from the destroyers in the democrat party and they will succeed, God willing.

Either Team Schiff is truly an entire hive of cockroaches; or they are diapering each other wither of which would of necessity require darkness. (Fulla Schiff is rehearsing his cast for the next production..)

I've been wondering lately about what scheme do the Rats and the so-called ''media'' (same thing, I know) have in store to attack the president with next? You just know they have a list of lying garbage to introduce as soon as this THIS Star Chamber collapses. It's what they do.

The question is rhetorical. If it is a secret it is the worst kept secret in Washington. As our friend Peter Strzok put it 'there is no there there'. The real question is - why are they doing it? The only remotely sane answer seems to be that they hope to vilify the President with the help of the media and put off enough independent and/or first time voters. Its truly puzzling that a seasoned pol like Pelosi is going along with this.

He's pulling a Mueller 2.0. Schiff is making himself and his Dem only committee a Special Counsel to fabricate a fanciful tale for impeachment. As President Reagan once quipped, they believe if they dig in the pile of horse dung long enough they'll find the pony.

For 2020, I dream of a RED wave the likes of which we haven't seen since 1994 -- free sea to shining sea. And if that happens, the Democrats will deserve every last drop of that tsunami. It is fine that they don't like Mr. Trump. It is fine that they don't agree with his policies. They should debate him on the issues. They should sincerely express their concerns.
If the Dems would operate in good faith, Mr. Trump would work with them, even if not all sides agreed. But they have gone after him and his family. They did that to George W. Bush too. He was super-nice to them, but it did him no good. Mr. Trump isn't going to take this abuse lying down. And the Dems cannot handle it.

The only valid reason for holding secret hearing is to keep what is said in the hearing secret. Yet there has been a stead stream of "leaks" from the hearings with no attempt to stop them.
The only reason to keep what is said in the hearing secret is while allow "leaks" is so the leakers can blatantly lie about what actually was said. Schiff has proved himself to be a shameless habitual liar, so we know the leaks cannot be believed.

Hillary has locked in the title "Most Reviled Woman in Politics" and it looks like Schiff is well on his way to becoming the most reviled man in politics.

A trial in secrecy, with no Whistleblower #1 or #2 ? This is a Pantomime of a Republic. Yet these Commies are formidable enemies and their Enemedia is grinding down Trump’s job approval rating. We need to hear from the Senate that without an opening vote the impeachment witch-hunt will be thrown out. All we hear from the senate is that they vote against the Wall. The senate is Republican solely because of the tireless campaigning by Donald Trump in 2018. Where are all the silent cowards Trump got elected?

Did the Schiffhead try to hit those nasty Republicans with his purse or stomp on them with his high heels?

Wrong, #8. The Democrats are hiding something very real. Read "Dead Men Don't Need Impeachment" a little farther down the page. Hopefully, it will become a must read . . . for the next several months!

Isn't there a legal way to get this loony cockroach off the stage? I still believe there's no "whistle blower" and never has been. If a person violates his/her obligation to be trustworthy, their self-life is OVER !

In my constant effort to understand everything in my life, I've discovered a profundity that, if accurate, could at least partially explain the formerly unexplained roils of evil, hate, and approaching nearly complete disruption of our faith in those elected government officials whose behaviors are so far from what we were promised on election day that it's hard to believe the promises, and the actions (or inactions) come from the same person.
But wait ! I have the explanation, but sadly, not the solution (except for prayer) -- it works ! Please bear with me, and I believe that those of us who have read "Alice in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll who supposedly wrote this masterpiece while under the influence of LSD. I'm almost convinced that we are living in a parallel universe not manipulated by george soros, but by Lewis Carroll or another power who is seemingly influenced by the concept of chaos.
There is mental illness called"Alice in Wonderland Syndrome" -- Google it, and learn something.
