When does the Impeachment Hearing start today? (Wednesday 12/4)

It's on now, let the games begin..... whose the fat cat already trying to interject?

The Repukes tried to play games again already.

YUK....Gaetz is on this committee.

I have to mute the Rethugs when they speak. It’s nothing but lies and makes my head explode.

Is there a thread for it?

r4, not officially. I guess we could use this one?

Watching Collins rant on MUTE is like watching a Hitler speech from the 30's.

Does the Republican party give Gym Jordan lessons? This guys is doing a great imitation of him.

Collins just tried to start the "Schiff has to testify" bull shit again.

Nadler shut him down. YES!

As I mentioned in the other thread, the southern accent makes that barking delivery so much more grating.

Rethugs are already up to their tricks.

Collins and the other Repugs are being really nasty to Nadler. Trying to confuse him.

OMG my blood pressure is rising watching this repug bullshit

Deep cleansing breaths, r11....

I hope Nadler can keep his cool like Schiff

Did Democrats pull the same stunts during Clinton’s impeachment hearings? I honestly don’t remember.

Thanks r12. At least I can laugh thinking of Trump throwing a tantrum when the other kids talked about him and took his bat and ball and went home.

Noah Feldman is gay, right?

The Repugs are going to keep the pressure on Nadler, tagteam-like, knowing him to be uncertain. We need Adam Schiff here.

Really, r13? I wish Democrats would lose their shit with these assholes and start calling them out.

R18 the problem is Nadler just caves in to pressure. Schiff is firm and cool.

Nadler's being more firm so far today. I'm sure he watched Schiff and wanted to emulate him

repubs and Faux News are NOT going to like today!!!! Too many of those elitist pretentious, educated academics!!!!!!!!! They're globalists! They're not REAL Americans!

I wish Schiff blasted them for their childish antics, r19.

Nadler: "I'd like to take a moment to remind members to refrain from lighting a match or engaging any flammable substances during Mr. Feldman's testimony."

I sense there will be many roll calls.

Are we really going to do a roll call every times Republicans lose a motion? I gotta give the woman taking the roll call credit. She's got a smooth and fast tongue.

Collins just had his face rubbed in his poo. Bad doggy, bad doggy!

ooh I like this Karlan woman-directly calling out Collins in the beginning of her speech haha

I don't understand why the Repukes are allowed to call for a roll call every time when it is obvious that there are more Democrats on this committee then Republicans to begin with?

Good for Pamela, she's schooling the Republicans.

The repugs only care that the Constitution clearly states that lying about a blow job is an impeachable offense.

Not impressed with the people testifying. They seem to enjoy the limelight. I mean, why is this woman shouting? She seems a little shrill. And the cookie sniffer before her...oy.

That woman took the Repugs to school for their lies.

The guy behind Gerhardt looks like a serial killer.

r32, naw, he looks like an aspie.

DL fave Andrew Desiderio is in the room again

Pamela Karlan is the truth speaking Fiona Hill of this committee.

AWESOME!

I hope the repubs ask dumbass questions and get embarrassed.

I'd like to see them call Bolton.

The Repubs may push the hearing into prime time. Do they want that?

Even the Republican witnesses whine.

I saw Turley on CBS a week or two ago. I knew his testimony was going to go this way.

Wasn't Turley pro Clinton impeachment when he testified 21 years ago?

His "didn't vote for Trump" non sequitur was total disingenuous-ness.

I think he was, r41.

You know what this hearing is missing...more roll call votes.

Did they get a late start?

Turley's "I didn't vote for Trump" statement really meant that he should recuse himself. As it was, it was just a stunt.

Exactly, r45.

"He didn't vote for me????"

Stay away from Fifth Avenue, Prof. Turley.

Did Turley even read the Mueller Report? ugh

Has Alyssa Milano shown up yet?
