He's with his wife. She has pancreatic cancer.

I saw him sitting at the table earlier.   Sad about his plight.

   Trump should sign an EO that at his next Impeachment trial the Senators are allowed to tweet their questions to the Chief Justice, it will lessen the attention span required to watch this 'Kabuki Theater'.

Clarification:   Nadler said he'd miss some of the impeachment festivities to be with his ailing wife. Story

I would settle for a simple rule that requires anyone addressing the senate during any part of an impeachment trial be placed under oath @corbe.  I'll assure you that alone would lower the BS level greatly.

House Democrats DO have a witness with firsthand knowledge of what President @realDonaldTrump
 said about aid to Ukraine

Amb. Gordon Sondland:

"I want nothing. I want no quid pro quo. Tell Zelensky to do the right thing."

Democrats just don't like this firsthand testimony.

Schiff once again shreds defense argument that with witnesses, the trial will be endless. Managers pledge to rely on Roberts' rulings. Defense won't because "they know he will be fair."

What a disingenuous twit.  Schiff wants to rely on Roberts' rulings because they don't have the votes.  Defense won't because they do have the votes.
