House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) issued a set of restrictions on Thursday morning limiting Republicans to calling witnesses that can respond to three questions, all of which reflect Democrats’ views.
The questions, detailed in a letter Wednesday from Schiff to ranking member Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) are:
1, Did the President request that a foreign leader and government initiate investigations to benefit the President’s personal political interests in the United States, including an investigation related to the President’s political rival and potential opponent in the 2020 U.S. presidential election?
2. Did the President — directly or through agents — seek to use the power of the Office

Any wimpy Congressional Republicans who go would go along with the leftist and liberal Democrats with their impeachment inquisition based political hit job on President Trump have to be morons, will be committing political suicide as far that the vast majority of “Deplorable” Republican voters are concerned, and most likely are assisting the Democrats in electing a Democrat socialist as President in the 2020 election.

Question 1 requires reading the President's mind since his actions to cooperate with Ukraine on 2016 corruption were required by our mutual treaty and any benefit to him was unavoidable.
Question 2 was answered NO by Zelevsky
Question 3 goes to the separation of powers under the Constitution so it is not a valid question.
Done

Americans have a visceral revulsion to a corrupt trial.
There are few things that will override confirmation bias, but they are playing with one. They are overplaying their hand it will not end well.

quintessential kangaroo court

In his appeal to the chamber after Schiff rejects his witness requests, Nunes should remind the chamber that the next time the GOP has the house with a dem President, they will adopt these same unfair procedures to impeach the democrat president for a simple difference in policy.

All of this posturing by Schiff-ALL OF IT-must be to pre-empt attention from and lay the groundwork to discredit the upcoming IG report and the Durham investigation. If Schiff is acting so irrationally one wonders exacly what will be revealed in the coming weeks. It must be pretty bad for the Democrats-they may have to circle the wagons to protect Obama. One can only hope.
And after this, Schiff should never be let near any structure in DC. He is a bagboy for his masters.

Schiff has turned this into a complete embarrassment for the entire country. Republicans should walk out of this idiotic farce and refuse to participate. Let them call their irrelevant witnesses to give their opinions of what Trump might be thinking. There is no evidence. Let’s stop pretending this is something it isn’t. Pelosi made a career killing decision putting this repugnant little vermin in charge and she knows it.

What Bull Schiff.
He knows the questioning won't go well for them, and now need to sensor the questions, to ensure his pre-determined replies are elicited.
He is running a banana-republic committee, and it sounds more like he's obstructing justice.
Schiff should also be reminded, he is not above the law either.

2nd Post. Republicans should ask the question anyway and let Pencil Neck respond by saying the question is not allowed so the clueless audience can actually see and hear how corrupt he and his party are and that the drive-media has been lying to them and that the same tactic could be applied to them should demonrats gain full power again.
