Nadler sets Dec. 6 deadline for White House to say if it will take part in impeachment hearings
By Rachel Frazin - 11/29/19 03:18 PM EST

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) has informed President Trump that he has until Dec. 6 to let the committee know whether his counsel will participate in upcoming impeachment proceedings.

"I am writing to determine if your counsel will ... participate in the upcoming impeachment proceedings. In particular, please provide the Committee notice of whether your counsel intends to participate, specifying which of the privileges your counsel seeks to exercise, no later than 5:00 p.m. on December 6, 2019," Nadler wrote to Trump in a letter dated Friday.

Friday was the deadline for Trump to respond to Nadler's request for participation in committee proceedings.

But instead of giving House Democrats a direct "no" answer, Cipollone penned a two-paragraph letter derailing the entire process.
"As you know, your impeachment inquiry is completely baseless and has violated basic principles of due process and fundamental fairness," he wrote. "Nevertheless, the Speaker of the House yesterday ordered House Democrats to proceed with articles of impeachment before your Committee has heard a single shred of evidence.”

A senior administration official, though, made it clear they won't be participating, telling Fox News: "We don’t see any reason to participate because the process is unfair. Speaker (Nancy) Pelosi has already announced the predetermined result. They will not give us the ability to call any witnesses.”

The Democrats have made themselves into a real live Joke.
We used to call them 'the clown car' as a tongue in cheek insult of a kind.
But they have actually become a Political Party of Clowns, for real. No insult is necessary.
They are doing it to themselves.

What deadline date did Nadler set for the introduction of evidence relevant to this case?  Because so far, there hasn't been one single iota of testimony from anyone involved.
