Again, using a shoe on the other foot example, Manager @AdamSchiff says "do me a favor" and "I want you to find me dirt on" a political opponent, citing @MittRomney for obvious reasons.

But those words are fabrications of Mr. Schiff. Donald Trump said no such thing.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney In 1999, the questions posed by U.S. Senators were serious. Some of these are canned questions, pretty much a mockery to the process.

"Would you like a chance to say 'liar, liar, pants on fire!' for 5 minutes?"
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney That was another whopper from @RepZoeLofgren.

Ukraine didn't admit they were pressured in public because they didn't want Russia to find out?

That is not supported at all.

Also, the timing they knew of the hold. She is flatly calling the key players in U.S. and Ukraine, liars.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren Another misnomer, which @KatiePavlich tried to explain to Chris Wallace the other day.

There were no "new" witnesses in the Clinton impeachment trial.

All three gave prior testimony.

Closed-door depositions lasted only 3 days before a 70/30 vote against calling live witness.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren @KatiePavlich Further, to cite the impeachment of Andrew Johnson is not making a strong case. That was so viewed as a stain on our history that we didn't have another impeachment for a century.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren @KatiePavlich The "full" House voted to officially launch an impeachment proceeding against Bill Clinton, and it was widely bipartisan, as it was with Richard Nixon.

Here, Nancy Pelosi assumed full House power, made up "an inquiry" and rammed through against bipartisan opposition.

Very diff.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren @KatiePavlich By the way, here's John Bolton in August 2019. Listen to how he framed the calls between Trump and Zelensky.

They were "warm" and "cordial."

But that was before we knew we weren't getting more wars and before we were selling books.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren @KatiePavlich Manager @RepJerryNadler said, "in the words of one constitutional law expert, 'If this isn't impeachable, then nothing's impeachable.'"

His "expert" @NoahCRothman also claimed criticizing the media and tweeting about the "wiretap" (true) was impeachable. peoplespunditdaily.com/news/politics/…
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren @KatiePavlich @RepJerryNadler @NoahCRothman Republican Senators getting more scrappy with their questions, bringing up Sean Misko and Abigail Grace, who are friends with the "whistleblower" and now work for Adam Schiff.

The White House Counsel knows more than they are letting on and should've went harder at this.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren @KatiePavlich @RepJerryNadler @NoahCRothman While the IC IG testimony does remain secret because Adam Schiff doesn't want the public to learn about the "whistleblower" lying and his relationships with impeachment actors, they know what's in it like the rest of us.

We know the relevant lines in the transcripts.
@AdamSchiff @MittRomney @RepZoeLofgren @KatiePavlich @RepJerryNadler @NoahCRothman There will be more leaks and schemes to derail the momentum for acquittal, which make no mistake, is real in this hour.

Adam Schiff telegraphed it in one of his responses today, and DNC mouthpiece Greg Sargent at The Washington Post who writes what he's told did, as well.
