  • Congressman Adam Schiff: "We believe we will have made the case overwhelmingly of the President's guilt. He has done what he's charged with... but I want to address one other thing tonight. Okay he's guilty, does he really need to be removed?"

    “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
    ― Theodore Roosevelt

      Emile Constance yes of course you are right, but Trump has to be removed . He has undone so much of the work that has been progressive. USA voters and citizens have to realize what the the boogeyman is in American society. It's not what they call "socialism" which is how they dub caring for the welfare of your neighbours' and family's futures.

      @@voidsauce6220 The key word in your comment is "corrupt." We have term limitations. They're called elections, but the forced removal of a senator or representative would not be beneficial if that person is hard-working and honorable. Trump is proof of what can happen when you have an amateur in office. We need experienced people in office who know how things are done and who to see to get them done. Trump would have been more tolerable if he had trusted and relied on the experienced people around him - those people in the intelligence community, Congress, and the state department who could have guided him in his dealings with his people and the world. Perhaps if he had, he wouldn't be cozying up to thugs and dictators while alienating our long-time, proven allies. If he cared about our people he would be trying to improve health care rather than depriving millions of it and their protections including those for preexisting conditions. If he cared about our environment, he wouldn't be deregulating the protection of public lands or squashing California for their better than national expectations for emissions control. If he cared about borrowers, he wouldn't have deregulated banking. If he cared about our environment and the lives of our children, he wouldn't have made his first executive action be allowing Dow Chemical to return to the use of chemicals known to cause cancer in children. He cares about getting reelected so he may continue his pursuit of power as demonstrated by his eagerness to coerce Ukraine and fudge the upcoming elections by undermining his political opponent by ignoring the Constitution.

      Yes, we do. I have been watching a good deal of this intently from across your northern border. Of course, given our close cultural and commercial ties, this is perfectly natural. The current global trend toward autocracy is very disturbing for me, not because of any intense devotion to ideals of liberal democracy, but because autocracy can lead so easily to gross abuses of human rights and of the TRUTH.
      Ultimately, cults of personality like Trump's are an offense against GOD------------not that He is threatened in any way by them (!), but because they divert human attention from Him Who is WORTHY, to the exaltation of vain political IDOLS.
      All autocratic regimes are bound to perish, some of them amidst great tumult.

Nor are Americans proud of avoiding pain at all costs. On patriotic holidays, in fact, we boast of how much pain Americans have stood in order to protect their freedoms . . .
    So it is not too much to ask of Americans that they not be censors, that they run the risk of being deeply wounded by ideas so that we may all be free. If we are wounded by an ugly idea, we must count it as part of the cost of freedom and, like American heroes in the days gone by, bravely carry on.

      Conclusion: having a position of power and honor does not make one any the wiser or nobler. If any of us thought that it was only Trump who had failed or refused to 'grow into the office', we were wrong. There must be many others like that, lacking intellectual integrity and curiosity besides. Are they trying to make Trump's case or him, that the Senate is an obsolete institution, that all power ought to be ceded to the president? Is Trump to be admitted finally as a member of the international dictators' club?

      The truth does matter, which is why you have to prove Trump did the things the Democrats accuse him of.
      In order to actual obstruct congress the Supreme Court must have made that ruling. Schiff never went to the Supreme Court, he said it would take too much time. So by the very definition of obstruction of Congress Trump is not guilty because the Democrats neglected to get ruling. They have rejected the Judicial Branch of our government in an attempt to impeach the president and get him removed.
      The truth is great, but it is very obvious the Democrats have no proof that Trump did anything worth impeachment. So what did the Democrat do? They lowered the standard for impeachment to such a low level that the new standard would have had every single president in history impeached. They didn't impeach Trump with the same standards Obama had, or the same standards Bill Clinton or Bush Jr and Sr had, no, they changed the standards so it applies to every president then they impeach him with those new standards.
      The facts just do not support the Democrats claims here. The Democrats are on a power hungry tear ignoring the Judicial Branch and disrespecting the Senate in order to try to push through a partisan impeachment. That much is blatantly obvious to anyone who is paying attention.

      Unfortunately for Schiff, people in the US are innocent until proven guilty. Not assumed guilty until proven innocent.
      The Democrats assume Trump is guilty and there is no amount of proof that can convince them otherwise. They have gone off the deep end with a power mad rush to do all they can to remove Trump despite the Democrats having 0 evidence that PROVES Trump did anything they are accusing him of here.
      Facts over feelings. For all the claim or moral richness here Schiff leaves out his completely biased and partisan running of the House Impeachment Inquiry for 3 months, allowing Democrats rights he refused to grant to Republicans. If he really cared about the truth he would have spent more than 3 months running an impeachment investigation. Every single prior impeachment inquiry in US history has lasted over a year. Schiff did it all in 3 months by refusing to let the Republicans call witnesses, and literally obstructing the Republicans in the House.
      This speech was well delivered but its substance is very lacking. Schiff outright lied when he said Trump obstructed Congress. The only way for that to be a true statement is if the Judicial Branch got involved and made that ruling. Schiff did not go to the Judicial Branch because, in his words, it would take too much time. So instead of 2 branches of government being at odds with one another and the 3rd branch settling the dispute, as the Founders intended, the Democrats never went to the 3rd branch to settle it, the Democrats only just continue to repeat that claim.
      The facts just continue to not support Schiff's claims here. Innocent until proven guilty is how it works in the US, not guilty because the Democrats ssay so.
