Clinton impeachment investigator calls BS on McConnell’s trial rules: ‘The Trump investigation is incomplete’ – Raw Story

The House Judiciary Committee is meeting on Thursday to discuss the impeachment of Donald Trump over his Ukraine bribery and extortion.

Dem lawmaker drops the mic on GOP for claiming Trump was really worried about Ukraine ‘corruption’ – Raw Story
One of the Republican Party’s defenses of President Donald Trump has been that he only withheld military aid to Ukraine because he sincerely wanted to see whether the country was doing enough to fight internal corruption.
But Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) on Thursday tore this claim to pieces by showing how Trump himself is constantly mired in corruption in both his own businesses and even his personal charity.....

Pence rejects calls to declassify new impeachment testimony - POLITICO
Vice President Mike Pence’s counsel rejected House Democrats’ request to declassify details of a Sept. 18 call between Pence and Ukraine’s president, calling the request illegitimate because the impeachment inquiry has concluded.
In a letter to House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), Pence’s lawyer, Matthew Morgan, said it “serves no purpose” to declassify supplemental testimony from one of Pence’s national security aides, as Schiff had demanded....

Nadler calls Trump’s bluff - The Washington Post
When the House Intelligence Committee held depositions of key witnesses, President Trump’s lawyers cried: “Unfair! Secret hearings!” In fact, a slew of Republicans had the right to ask questions, though some chose not to attend. When the hearings moved to a public phase, the White House hollered: “Unfair! Trump’s lawyer isn’t present!” When the House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), invited Trump’s lawyers to attend, the response was: “Unfair! We’re not coming!”...

Fox News questioned Lt. Col. Vindman's patriotism but praised war criminals
Fox News figures attacked Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman -- a decorated veteran -- for testifying before the impeachment inquiry, even repeatedly questioning his patriotism.

Nunes’s ‘carousel of allegations’ all contain impeachable acts - The Washington Post
A common Republican criticism in the ongoing impeachment proceedings is that Democrats have repeatedly changed their position concerning what offense President Trump may have committed in his dealings with Ukraine. In his opening statement on Thursday, Rep. Devin Nunes (Calif.), the House Intelligence Committee’s ranking Republican, said: “The offense itself changes depending on the day, ranging from quid pro quo, to extortion, to bribery, to obstruction of justice, then back to quid pro quo.” He accused Democrats of riding on a “carousel of allegations.” ...
