President Trump’s lengthy trial brief does not explain why, even now, he has not offered any documents or witnesses in his defense or provided any information in response to the House’s repeated requests. This is not how an innocent person behaves.Actually, a person who is not guilty behaves exactly that way if they have been falsely charged and the prosecution has presented no evidence to even support the false accusations. There is no need to defend obvious innocence.
If this were a criminal trial presided over by a judge concerned with the integrity of his courtroom, he would dismiss this case with prejudice.
I say; AMEN!#53 She’sGotsChiftySchitterEyEs

Bwahaha!

Schiff: You can’t have any witnesses.

Oh and Hamous’ #64
I watched House Impeachment Manager Hakeem Jeffries argue for witnesses in the impeachment trial by recalling that witnesses testified in Nixon’s impeachment trial.
A couple of problems there. Nixon was not impeached so there was no trial.
Nope, you can’t make this up.

Robert Mueller’s friends think ‘something happened’ to him during Russia investigation: Author
People close to Robert Mueller believe “something happened” to the former special counsel over the course of his two-year Russia investigation, according to a reporter.
The Washington Post’s Carol Leonnig, who is the co-author of the new book A Very Stable Genius about President Trump, described on Tuesday how difficult it was for some of Mueller’s close family friends to watch his shaky testimony before Congress last summer.
“Phil [Rucker] and I, my co-author, we are not medical professionals, but over and over again, John, we heard from people who are very close to Bob Mueller who found him a different person, a changed person, after two years of this investigation,” Leonnig told CNN host John Berman.
“They don’t know what that’s about,” Leonnig continued. “Some of them do and haven’t shared that with us. But they know that something happened. He’s a different person. He was stumbling over his words. You saw him in July in his testimony before Congress, there were people that I spoke to who are very, very good family friends of his who said, ‘I couldn’t watch the television anymore, I had to turn it off. It wasn’t the Bob I knew.’”
And;
The Washington Post reported in July that Mueller’s team denied rumors that the then-74-year-old’s cognitive acuity was wavering, prompting Democrats to compel him to appear publicly. His resulting performance had some Democrats privately questioning whether Mueller was all there mentally.
“It was a painful reminder that age catches up to all of us,” one unnamed House Democrat who questioned Mueller said at the time. “Here you have this Vietnam hero and this post-Sept. 11 FBI director. You could tell he was having a hard time hearing, and it was like, ‘Ugh! This is not how I want him to be remembered.’”
Some critics, Berman said, believe Mueller just was not up to grappling with the “modern era of political warfare and may have got gamed out by the presidency.”
“Many of our sources felt very strongly that Bob Mueller was playing a 1950s Boy Scout game,” Leonnig said. “He was being an honorable icon and standard-bearer of the Department of Justice, whereas Bill Barr was playing in Trump’s 2000s, and he was messaging this very well. He was the first person to get out the message: Donald Trump’s been exonerated.”
In early October, it was announced that Mueller had returned to work at the private law firm WilmerHale.

White House Counsel Pat Cipolline blasted House impeachment manager Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) on the floor of the Senate early Wednesday morning during the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump for making “false accusations” against the president and the Senate.
“The only one who should be embarrassed, Mr. Nadler, is you, for the way you addressed this body. This is the United States Senate. You’re not in charge here,” Cipollone said.
The White House counsel was responding to Nadler’s lengthy speech advocating for an amendment to subpoena former National Security Advisor John Bolton. Bolton has said he would be willing to testify, though the House failed to call him to testify during its own impeachment inquiry. Democrats hope that he will shed light on what impeachment managers called a “scheme” by the president to pressure Ukraine to interfere in the 2020 election.
But Nadler began by accusing the White House counsel of lying — a striking breach that would likely have been disciplined in any ordinary court of law. “They lie,” he claimed. “And lie, and lie, and lie,” he repeated.
Nadler went on to argue that if the Senate voted against the Democrats’ proposed amendment to a procedural resolution — which would only accelerate the decision on Bolton to an earlier stage of the trial — they would be “voting against the United States.” When it was Cipollone’s turn to respond, he had clearly had enough.
He said:
Thank you, Mr. Chief Justice, members of the Senate. We came here today to address the false case brought to you by the House managers. … We’ve been respectful of the Senate. We’ve made our arguments to you. And you don’t deserve, and we don’t deserve, what just happened. Mr. Nadler came up here and made false allegations against our team. He made false allegations against all of you: he accused you of a ‘cover up.” He’s been making false allegations against the president.
Turning to address Nadler, Cipollone concluded:
“The only one who should be embarrassed, Mr. Nadler, is you, for the way you addressed this body. This is the United States Senate. You’re not in charge here.”
As to the issue of Bolton’s testimony, Cipollone reminded Democrats that the House had decided not to call him in its own impeachment inquiry.
He then addressed Nadler again, reminding him that he had once argued that a partisan impeachment would deprive the American people of their vote. “What happened, Mr. Nadler?” Cipollone asked.
“Mr. Nadler, you owe an apology to the President of the United States and his family. You owe an apology to the Senate. But most of all, you owe an apology to the American people.”

So, I just flipped on Fox News and they had a correspondent in Davos, covering the President’s visit. (BTW; His speech yesterday might just be his best one yet, I heard excerpts on Rush yesterday) Just for grins, I flipped the TV over to that Alternate Universe, PMSNBC,..and yes, I know, I should have know better because the show as the one, with the two angry, sad, old broads, that are trying out for a shot at The View. They were covering IMPEACHMENT! and showed Cipollone chastising the House for not letting the President have any witnesses. On the screen, at the bottom, it said; “WH Counsel caught in several lies”. Then they put up the House eunuch, Adam Schiff and he was the one lying,..of course. The two ladies sat there and giggled and then the pseudo male, the one with the big hair and Librarian Lady Glasses said; “It just makes me wonder how things would be different if the Republicans voting in the primary, did like me and voted for Yeb”!?!?…….Really, you can’t make this crap up…Oh, and that was it, I couldn’t take it anymore…..SIGH!

Proving one person can make a real difference. Use their own weapons against them.
As a result of Title IX complaints I filed with the college’s Title IX office and at the federal level with the Office for Civil Rights, Vermont Technical College in recent months has quietly converted both of those discriminatory, illegal programs into legal co-ed, gender-neutral programs that now accommodate students of all gender identities.
I used to quote and feature professor and economist Mark Perry all the time at Lone Star Times. He is now a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute.
Bottom Line: That’s why starting in 2016, I have been on a one-man mission to challenge universities across the country that violate Title IX by filing nearly 100 Title IX complaints so far with the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights. About a dozen of those complaints have been successfully resolved in my favor including the Vermont Technical College complaint, nearly 40 other complaints have resulted in federal investigations of civil rights violations that are ongoing, and about 40 other complaints are currently being reviewed by the Office for Civil Rights.
By exposing Title IX violations that are numerous and almost universally ignored, it is my mission to advance civil rights for all persons in higher education and end the hypocritical, double-standard for enforcement of sex discrimination that has prevailed for so many decades at colleges and universities across the US.

I’ve been thinking, that it’s not fair to put the House Manager Clowns up against Trump’s team of smart, highly skilled lawyers. Cippolone, Sekulow, and Starr are just not in the same league as them.
So the question is; do you think Nancy Pelosi is sorry she hitched her wagon to the Shiff N Nadler show? Or, is she so stupid that she thinks they’re doing a good job?
Shiff, Nadler Jeffries, Lofgren, Demings, Garcia, and Crow just aren’t the sharpest knives in the drawer and they come across as angry, uninformed, imbeciles that have a rabid hatred for the President. Remember,…. No One Is Above The Law,…not even the President. -

#19 SD: It really is like shooting ducks in a barrel, isn’t it?
Here’s a question for the couch: Are the House shampeachment managers under oath? If not, why not? If they are, then they open themselves up to serial perjury charges in order for them to make the false case which they are attempting. Quite frankly, I think they could be charged with sedition or treason because this nonsense gives encouragement to the islamic backed terrorists who are actively waging war against the USA.
That they are insisting on “fair play” when they allowed nothing of the sort pegs out my BS-O-METER. -
#22 Bones, no they’re not under oath, they are free to lie all they want. Like in a court of law, the judge, prosecutor and defense lawyers aren’t under oath.

Morning gang. I stayed up last night keeping an eye on the impeachment proceedings. I’ve been trying my best to learn to imitate the evil grin that Schumer uses when he knows that he’s twisting the knife just for the sake of being able to do so, not because he actually intends to accomplish anything. i think he was the model they used for Mr. Burns on the Simpsons when he is up to some nefarious scheme. Cory Booker also has managed to set his mouth that way too. Anyway, when Nadless got his shot at the microphone, he could not wait to insult everyone in the room, and the President too, except himself and his Dem cohorts. He really showed his ample azz across and up and down several times during his diatribe. It was nasty and pathetic, just like he is.
I thought the Presdient’s attorney was quite generous and polite in his criticism following the Nadless act, but the Chief Justice saw fit to admonish both of them for not adhering to the rules of decorum set by the Senate. I’m seriously wondering how many times during his legal career the Chief Justice has been able to incorporate the word “pettifoggery” into his speeches. That’s a great word and should be used more often.
OK, I’m hoping that you all have a great day. The politicians crank it back up again about noon, so I’ll be tuning in to see how many of the limp wristed eReps cave to the Dems. Susan Collins is going to lose her seat in the Senate anyway this fall, so she should seriously consider doing the right thing rather than stabbing her Rep cohorts in the back like she normally does. She caught all kinds of grief when she went ahead and voted for Kavanaugh instead of “believing the lying woman” and I suspect she does not want to have to go through that again, so she’ll probably cave. Mittens of course will do anything to screw Trump over as will sweet Lisa, and you never know when they might find another one or two. Nobody likes to wind up on the losing side in these deals. More later.

Yesterday was the 70th anniversary of the conviction of Alger Hiss for perjury. The statute of limitations had expired on espionage so lying under oath was the best the DOJ could do at the time.
First, they tried to smear Hiss’s main accuser, Whittaker Chambers, as a fantasist, liar, and spurned homosexual. When that fell short, Hiss and his defenders invented any number of Baroque theories to rebut hard evidence, including “forgery by typewriter” to explain away portions of classified documents that had been typed on a Hiss-owned machine. Finally, they argued that the case against Hiss was a nefarious conspiracy, a Salem witch trial for the 1940s, orchestrated by such congenital anti-communists as Richard Nixon and J. Edgar Hoover who had only one goal in mind: the destruction of New Deal liberalism, so as to pave the way for the cold war abroad and domestic repression at home.
Incredibly, there are leftists in America still trying to exonerate Hiss. They never give up. I’m sure there are even true believers, comrades, continuing to defend the Rosenbergs in the face of overwhelming evidence of their guilt.

Chili over Frito’s, chili over tortillas, chili over scrambled eggs, chili over noodles, chili over cornbread, chili over tamales, chili on hot dogs, chili on hamburger, chili on pork steak, chili on beef steak, chili over crackers, chili on baked potato – the list may be endless. But you get the idea. And I’ll have a few pintos with mine, thank you very much, along with shredded cheddar and diced onions. Don’t drink beer anymore, but if I did, I might add a cold beer to the mix.

When is Schiff going to face the penalty for his parade of lies? Surely Trump could easily prove malice for the serial slander and libel from Schiff. I am pretty sure that he has done this outside the House, which removes any shield he may enjoy there.
There has to be a penalty for such an outrageous abuse of office. Too bad that they outlawed dueling. -

Limbaugh was talking about Russia seizing Crimea and how JugEars did nothing to stop it. Prior to that JugEars pressured Ukraine to give up some defensive capabilities in return for protection from the USA. After the invasion of Crimea, JugEars steadfastly refused to give Ukraine any lethal weapons by which they may have been able to defend themselves.
What popped into my head was the statement given to Medvedev or whoever just prior to the re-election of JugEars to the effect of: “Tell Vlad to wait until after the election as I will have much more flexibility then and not be facing another election.” Did Putin and JugEars have a deal with millions going to JugEars in exchange for Putin taking Crimea?
This sounds a whole lot like high crimes, like treason, to me. -
Newspeak media such as CBS continue to report on how historic this impeachment hoax is.

I tried to do my civic duty and pay some attention to the impeachments crap show, but I could only make it about 10 minutes. I went to Olde Pharts coffee today after concluding that I would rather listen to the one very obnoxious SOB that haunts us than listen to pencil neck, but I only lasted about 15 minutes there. So overall, it back to You Tube to watch something about fixing something or how wild animals act or something. No nap so far, but I might even do that before it’s over.

Quick Drive-By, since, as usual, I’m busy. I had the tube on all day and muted. I was outside most of the day but when I came in around 1:00? I saw Pencil Neck up there lying, I don’t know what he was saying, but his lips were moving, so there,..later, at least an hour, he was still up there. After Lil Dawg and I got back from taking came of the hens,..they do love turnips, BTW, I came in to trim and vacuum seal the tow back straps. They’ve been curing in ice since Saturday night, so it was time. I cranked up the TV and went into the kitchen as that poor, pathetic old Skank, Sylvia Garcia with her Clorox Bleached hair was speaking and I kept hearing Biden’s name?!?! WTH? I heard this from more than one of these Clowns and I’m guessing that, they’re expecting to call witnesses and if so, the Republicans are calling Joe Bike Me and his son, so they’re running interference and trying to make what they did OK?!?!…..REALLY? MmmmK, good luck with that!

The federal government is restoring funding for Texas’ publicly funded women’s health programs, bringing as much as $350 million into state coffers and sending a clear message to conservative states: It’s OK to defund providers affiliated with abortion.
The Wednesday announcement from the Trump administration reverses an Obama-era decision in 2012 to cut federal women’s health funding to Texas. That came as punishment after the Texas Legislature excluded Planned Parenthood from the Healthy Texas Women program in 2011 because of the organization’s affiliation with abortion providers, though the women’s health program does not fund abortion.

Barely two weeks after Donald Trump took office, Eric Ciaramella – the CIA analyst whose name was recently linked in a tweet by the president and mentioned by lawmakers as the anonymous “whistleblower” who touched off Trump’s impeachment – was overheard in the White House discussing with another staffer how to remove the newly elected president from office, according to former colleagues.
Sources told RealClearInvestigations the staffer with whom Ciaramella was speaking was Sean Misko. Both were Obama administration holdovers working in the Trump White House on foreign policy and national security issues. And both expressed anger over Trump’s new “America First” foreign policy, a sea change from President Obama’s approach to international affairs.
“They weren’t just bent on subverting his agenda,” the former official added. “They were plotting to actually have him removed from office.”
Misko left the White House last summer to join House impeachment manager Adam Schiff’s committee, where sources say he offered “guidance” to the whistleblower, who has been officially identified only as an intelligence officer in a complaint against Trump filed under whistleblower laws. Misko then helped run the impeachment inquiry based on that complaint as a top investigator for congressional Democrats.
You don’t get much more coupier than this.

I decided to check in to see if the impeachment fiasco is still going on, and sure enough, there was that same fat azzed knee grow woman droning on about something. I didn’t even stay long enough to see who she was talking about, but I remember from yesterday that she could use some lessons in English and word pronunciation. And those people are supposed to be on for two more days. The people on The Five, one said it was as irritating and when you are trying to talk to someone with the vacuum cleaning being run in the room. Another said it was like the teacher in the Charlie Brown movie or something, where al they hear is a constant drone – no words.
For some reason, I’ve been developing a fear of heights, and I think it’s coupled with some age related vertigo or something. Anyway, You Tube has numerous videos of men climbing those tall towers and working on antennas or changing light bulbs and the like. I dam near panic just watching that stuff, expecting one of them to slip and fall any minute. I still have trouble imagining someone growing up whose life ambition is to climb 2000′ towers. But flying a small plane, which is nothing more than some steel tubing and thin aluminum sheeting, to 10,000′ doesn’t bother me. What’s up with that?
OK, dinner is done, so it’s back to the other room. More later.

I’m also very uncomfortable in tight spaces like the crawlspace under my house or sitting next to a two-belter on a plane.

I’ll believe it when I see them.

Fear of Heights? Heck I am not afraid to drive around down there. Oh wait you guys are talking bout Acrophobia. I am not afraid of heights but an equilibrium problem caused me to retire from trucking. I topped the ship channel bridge one day and dang near dizzied myself into a collision. I limped the truck home scared to death and quit. I have discovered if I literally look at the road just in front of my vehicle I can negotiate high places, Look left right or in the distance and I am in trouble, I dodge bridges now along with roofs etc. I am not gonna risk the driving publics life driving a tractor trailer.
