Schitt for brains and Pelosi need to quit their damn grandstanding and get on with the impeachment, it’s beyond ridiculous at this point.

Sondland's attorney:

Sondland is upset that he does not get a chance to testify today, but as a member of the State Department, must follow orders from Pompeo.

Sometimes you say things that make it seem like you have literally no interest in educating yourself.

I wonder if anyone in the press will ask him about his blatant lies about no prior contact with the "whistleblower" or why he lied in the public record...

What’s being obstructed? I’m no lawyer but it’s very difficult to obstruct a nonexistent investigation.

I’m not a legal guy but I’d assume once there is a vote and it’s a formal inquiry then these guys get full legal recourse. You could challenge the subpoena or something and have them explain motives.

You see, this is key.

Schiff is going to scream and bitch and demand and subpoena and he will someday get that guy in front of him...and get his fricking legs cut off.

Trump should hold a press conference at the exact same time.

Will anybody question schiff’s lies?
Not one person in the media will question it. Even though the committee has ZERO subpoena power with this issue because it is not OFFICIAL business of the House.......because they have NOT fricking voted on it.

They media will fraudulently report the White House is obstructing.

Is this sort of like saying, to some couple you have absolutely no desire to socialize with... "Well, I'd really like for us to go to dinner out with y'all Friday night, but, you see, my wife has already made us other plans."?

Apparently, Pompeo is pissed at how quickly this has happened and with no subpoenas from a formal inquiry.

Also, those willing to testify "voluntarily" are not sworn in, but lying has the same penalties...whatever the frick that means.

Quick question. Why is this in Schiff's committee anyway? Shouldn't it be in Nadler's committee?

Just watch, they know they don’t have schitt with the call, they are hoping to yell Obstruction to keep their idiot base on board with this Schitt investigation.
