IMPORTANT TO NOTE: The Senate's job is to determine whether or not the impeachment articles sent over by the House are valid and legitimate on their face.

Anything else is a moot point.

Would you believe that the twin brother of the Swamp clown Lt. Vindman is on the committee that approved the publication of Bolton’s book?  The Swamp is a very dirty place.

Wow. Sen. Loeffler (R-Ga.), who was just appointed to Johnny Isakson’s seat, takes a shot at Mitt Romney over his position on witnesses.

After 2 weeks, it’s clear that Democrats have no case for impeachment. Sadly, my colleague @SenatorRomney wants to appease the left by calling witnesses who will slander the @realDonaldTrump during their 15 minutes of fame. The circus is over. It’s time to move on! #gapol

This is so effing stupid. No one disputes the fact Trump wanted to hold aid until corruption in Ukraine was addressed. It looks like certain rats were deeply involved in said corruption.

So the rats are trying to get Trump impeached and tossed out for trying to uncover rat corruption.

Who buys this sh*t, other that rat dead-ender voters? Can anyone put two and two together anymore??

Of course they can put two and two together -- do the rats care about right or wrong, or do they simply want their "guy" in office?

Bolton’s testimony is important to those who still care about nuance.

Unfortunately, both political parties abandoned that long ago.

Republicans will almost certainly vote to acquit, Democrats will cry foul play, and Bolton will sell a lot of books.

Thanks goodness there are now congresspeople who are willing to call senior GOP weasels like Romney out. This is a new development.

Senate chaplain: "As millions mourn the deaths of Kobe and Gianna Bryant and those who died with them, we think about life's brevity, uncertainty and legacy.

"Remind us that we all have a limited time on earth to leave the world better than we found it."

Bolton's book manuscript clears Trump of all impeachment allegations by demonstrating that the President believed Ukraine interfered in US elections. Given that belief, right or wrong, pressuring Zelensky was completely within the job description of the presidency. #GameOver

A trial that doesn't allow testimony from material witnesses isn't a trial at all. It's a cover-up.

Your Republican senators need to hear from you today. (202) 224-3121

Kiss my lilly white arse, wretch.

Sorry, I am so sick of these lying sacks of dog scat.

Rather than tweets from the President's political enemies ... it would be very helpful for those of us who will be away from live streaming or a TV to read what's happening in the Senate.

Thanks @mystery-ak

1. Bolton’s book was obviously timed for maximum impact & sales.  Having written 8 books, I can tell you that it’s extraordinary that an author could complete a book in about 2 months and the published release it in 3-4 months.

What makes the emerging avalanche of smears against John Bolton even more distasteful is that they're not necessary. If you want to defend the president, make his best argument -- that the abuse isn't severe enough to merit removal. But no. Trump wants smears. Trump gets smears.
