We knew it would be a sham trial, with a preordained outcome and a rigged jury. We knew this because the Republican party announced it in advance. “I’m not an impartial juror,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell proclaimed in December. “This is a political process. There is not anything judicial about it.”

The Senate impeachment trial of Donald Trump was never a matter of law. It was always a matter of power. Mr. Trump has openly committed crimes and even confessed to crimes: What is at stake is whether anyone would hold him accountable. The way that Mr. Trump gets out of crimes is not by actually proving his innocence, but by declaring that crimes are not crimes when he commits them. This has been his strategy since his tutelage under the late mafia lawyer Roy Cohn, whose motto “I don’t want to know what the law is, I want to know who the judge is” shapes Mr. Trump’s worldview today.

In the Senate, Mr. Trump is being judged by a jury of his lackeys. The trial is a loyalty test for Republicans, who will decide whether to take their criminal President and crown him criminal king. It is a test of whether they will obey their own abuser: According to CBS, GOP Senators were allegedly warned that those who voted against Mr. Trump will have their heads “on a pike." The choice for Republicans has always been to pledge fealty to the President or leave; a record number of Republican elected officials have retired since Mr. Trump took office.

...

We, the people, are the witnesses. We witness crimes carried out in plain sight by this government every day. We witness them on TV and we witness them in our daily lives, as ordinary citizens suffer from Mr. Trump’s ceaseless corruption. We are so tired of being witnesses that we feel like a captive audience. But it is important to remain a witness in a time of autocratic consolidation.

The Trump administration does not like witnesses. That is why Mr. Trump spent his whole life intimidating them into silence, whether through NDAs or threats of violence carried out by lawyers such as Michael Cohen. That is why they attack journalists and civil servants and scientists and try to forbid them from sharing facts with the public. It doesn’t feel empowering to be a witness under a regime determined to destroy the very concept of truth. But the truth always matters. If the truth didn’t matter, they wouldn’t work so hard to suppress it.

The gulf between truth and accountability is one of the hardest aspects of living under the Trump administration. We know what happened, and we know that this knowledge will likely not translate into justice. Flagrantly rigged trials are nothing new in the U.S., as any student of black history will tell you. What is new is the capitulation of an entire party to a corrupt president. . We didn’t need another witness to take the stand and tell us that.

Congress was impartial though? They can eat a big fat dick!!!

Dershowitz is a big time liberal. Just smarter than most and uses facts. Adam Schiff on the other hand is as smart as a box of rocks. "Someone heard that someone heard Trumps conversation." What a genius lawyer, hahaha...

The impeachment was a sham and it's over. Trump will win the upcoming election and Dr. Scally will be posting this pathetic crap for another 4+yrs.

Wait don’t you guys claim to be Jesus loving Christians? If your claim is we were being partial shouldn’t you, turn the other cheek ? Thought you guys all make the claim of being more ethical and fair ?

Nah when it comes down to it you guys just act like children. Makes sense though considering the parties ideologies.

"Someone heard that someone heard Trumps conversation."

Except for Bolton that is, who was blocked from testifying.

I will give it to Trump. He effectively stonewalled the investigation, and brow beat his caucus into submission.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly said all Americans should “stand proudly” during the national anthem, and publicly chastises those who don’t as disrespectful of the troops.

But during the national anthem at his own Super Bowl watch party Sunday night, a brief video posted to Instagram shows Trump greeting guests, adjusting his chair, and straightening his suit jacket as other attendees — including first lady Melania Trump and their teenage son — stand with their hands over their hearts. As “The Star Spangled Banner” crescendoes, Trump raises both of his hands in the air, and twirls them around as if conducting the music.

The video was included in an Instagram story by a real estate agent for a Russian-American firm who frequents Mar-a-Lago and other Trump properties and events.

No matter what Bolton said it wouldn’t change the fact that there was zero Constitutional reason for impeachment. If you can’t change that basic fact then what are you trying to accomplish?
