To those Republicans and Democrats who call the death of Soleimani an assassination — that’s nuts.
Soleimani was one of the leaders of Iran, the largest state sponsor of terrorism. He was actively involved in planning attacks against American military and diplomatic personnel. He has American blood on his hands.
President @realDonaldTrump as Commander in Chief has the authority and obligation to protect American forces in harms way.

He did the right thing.

I’m very pleased the Senate has rejected Democrats’ request to call additional witnesses after the House chose not to.

As I have stated, this is not an impeachable offense and the witnesses sought by the House managers were available to them in the House.
Their testimony would not change the fact that this is a non-impeachable offense and not the kind of event the Founding Fathers had in mind when it comes to removing a president and preventing them from running for reelection.
The fact is the House chose not to call witnesses like John Bolton because they wanted to impeach President Trump before the election.

It has nothing to do with finding the truth.

Of all the insane things being said about this impeachment debacle - and there is a lot to choose from - one of the most ridiculous is to say Senate Republicans are “Blocking Witnesses.”

This is an outrageous claim.
FACT:

It was the House of Representatives who refused to pursue the testimony of the witnesses because they wanted to impeach the President before Christmas.

Only in Washington would someone call that decision “Blocking Witnesses.”
In most of America it’s called: #YourOwnFault.

It is my opinion, based on the law and facts, that additional testimony is unnecessary in this case.
For the sake of argument, one could assume everything attributable to John Bolton is accurate and still the House case would fall well below the standards to remove a president from office.
It is clear to me that there is ample evidence for the President to be concerned about conflicts of interest on behalf of Hunter Biden and that Vice President Joe Biden’s failure to take appropriate action was unacceptable.

1)
 Let’s talk about another @nytimes piece written by #Iran apologist/lobbyist @farnazfassihi aimed at providing life support for Tehran’s mullahs by painting a moderate & innocent image of a ruthless regime.

This piece is published as sanctions still loom over @JZarif.
2)
 “To ordinary Iranians and reformists, that made him a hero.”
Fassihi gives no source.
There is no unbiased polling in Iran under the mullahs.
If we look at @JZarif’s tweets, the replies are full of criticism & insults in Farsi/English to the mullahs’ top diplomat & the regime.
3)
 This indicates Fassihi’s entire objective: preventing sanctions against Zarif.

1) I take the position that the U.S. is in a state of war with more than one country. War being defined as a hostile attack with the aim of invasion and takeover.
2) I thought this fact was obvious, but apparently it is not, because some people are still kind of laid back about the whole thing.
3) Let's start with Iran.
- @sibeledmonds names Iran as perp of 9/11 in her memoir. (Kindle ed. pp. 44-45)
- Iran benefited from our response to 9/11, which was to attack Iraq for no reason.
- Brennan covered for Iran in 2007 in a memo to the new Pres.
