#1 Pulling two demoncrat candidates off the trail and opening up the real possibility that Biden will be forced to testify.

If there is a trial.

I kinda get the feeling the Senate 'Pubs really don't want this to go on for too long and they will kill it ASAP.

#2 Just dismiss it, for chrissakes. No evidence to the allegations. It's horseshit, and deserves to be treated as such-- get out the shovels.

#3 I could be wrong, but I thought the House does the investigations and provides enough evidence that the Senate can see that there is enough for a proper trial, yet the Dems didn't produce squat and expect the Senate to do all the investigations. Do the Dems really believe they have something that I don't see or are they just playing it up for the rubes and groupies in their fanbase.

#5 This statement is double speak. She did not say she was sending it. She said she will put up a resolution to send it next week. This put everyone is an interesting position, kinda brilliant. I wonder who figure this out? First, if the republican congress critters vote yes, they will be seen as supporting impeachment, at least in the ads for their reelection, bad optics. They will all vote no. The resolution will not be to end this, it will be to table this until a later date, if more evidence shows up.... The Dems can vote either way, if they vote no, they will run saying it was bipartisan, If they vote yes and the Republicans vote to get it to the Senate to end it, they will say the impeachment was bipartisan. Either way she can spin this to her benefit. But to be sure, she never said she was going to send it to the Senate. This is still weeks away, if they vote for it, they will go through the process of of appointing managers, more theatrics that will take a couple months.

#7 #5 Oh, what a tangled web they weave - the ones who build their lives on being able to deceive.

#8 It's not up to the Senate to subpoena witnesses that House Democrats couldn't be bothered enough to pursue for themselves. Read the articles and call for a vote to dismiss or acquit or whatever. Then throw those bogus articles in the trash. Let Pelosi and Schumer spin it any way they want. Leave it to Barr and Durham to investigate Biden.

#9 Re#5, The Republicans should all vote "Present" and kick the ball back to Pelosi.
