Mitch McConnell insisted he'd keep #ImpeachmentTrial evidence from even making it to the floor. Democrats are introducing evidence as we speak.

McConnell hinted the trial wouldn't even be on TV. It's on TV.

Keep pounding on McConnell. He doesn't have a magic wand.

I was going to say that Donald Trump should have hired attorneys who went to law school instead of clown school, but then I realized that would be unfair to clowns.

Everyone seems surprised that Trump’s latest lawyer Pat Cipollone has turned out to be an ineffective stooge. Why? Every lawyer Trump hires is an ineffective stooge. It’s not like this guy Cipollone was suddenly going to show up with a magic wand and be some evil genius.

[THREAD JOHNSON] Republicans are attempting to hide their very evident lack of defense with an incoherent attack on House Democrats for not doing their work. @NarativLive #ImpeachmentTrial
2. Do the GOP remember this guy? He was one of their own. President between 1865-1869, Andrew Johnson was the first POTUS to be impeached. @NarativLive #ImpeachmentTrial
3. Johnson's offenses were not as serious as Trump's but then again that was when Lincoln was a Republican and sanity prevailed. Johnson was his VP. @NarativLive #ImpeachmentTrial

Trump's lawyer Pat Cipollone makes up the claim that Democrats "are here to steal two elections." He adds: "They want to remove the President Trump from the ballot." Cipollone says Democrats want to take away "the right to choose our president."

This is not true.
.@RepAdamSchiff shreds Republicans for trying to exclude evidence and witnesses in the Senate impeachment trial: "They made no effort [to defend the resolution] ... because it's indefensible, indefensible."
Referring to personal attacks from Trump's lawyers against him and the other House impeachment managers, @RepAdamSchiff says he won't dignify them with a response but notes: "What you're really hearing is: 'We don't want to talk about the president's guilt.'" #ImpeachmentTrial

C-SPAN: "We have requested from the majority leader, Mitch McConnell, that our cameras be allowed inside the chamber for the impeachment trial, and no word on that from the majority leader." #ImpeachmentTrial
when someone tries to talk to me before morning coffee
SCHIFF decries process McConnell has laid out: "The opening statements are the trial! They will either be most of the trial or they will be all of the trial ... if the Senate votes to be deprive itself of witnesses & documents the opening statements will be the end of the trial!"

Today, Chief Justice Roberts administered a specific oath of office to every Senator for the #ImpeachmentTrial.

Problem is, we’ve already had multiple Senators make it clear that they intend to violate that oath. Follow along as I name names: //Thread
Here’s Mitch McConnell flatly stating that he will not be impartial during the #ImpeachmentTrial:

“Everything I do, I’m coordinating with White House counsel. There will be no difference between the president’s position and our position.”
Here’s Lindsey Graham saying he’s has no interest in impartiality and will vote against having witnesses for Trump, which is in stark contrast to his vehement call for witnesses against a Democratic president:

Good morning. At noon ET, impeachment mgrs read the articles to the Senate. Then at 2PM ET, Chief Justice John Roberts is sworn in. After that, each senator (100 total) is sworn in. Trial kicks off in earnest next week. Today, stay tuned for coverage from @JackRodgersCNS and I.
@JackRodgersCNS Mitch McConnell from the Senate floor speaks on impeachment before talking trade deal: "The House’s time is over. The Senate’s time is at hand. It’s time for this proud body to honor our founding purpose."
@CourthouseNews
@JackRodgersCNS @CourthouseNews Chuck Schumer speaking on impeachment from the Sen. floor: “Hardly anything is more serious than powers outside the borders of the U.S. determining elections inside the US."

1. In Sep 2016, during a secret briefing for congressional leaders, the CIA informed the Congress about Russian interference with the election. McConnell objected to declassifying the information & making it public, claiming bipartisanship issues.

2. On January 31, 2017, Mitch McConnell’s wife Elaine Chao was sworn as a State Secretary of Transportation for Trump’s cabinet.
