It’s honestly hard to follow because it’s so fragmented.

”Impeachment is rare. If you do it, it would be less rare. So you can’t impeach because once a thing isn’t rare then it’s no longer special. Plus people in home districts may say they want someone impeached so you have to take their calls and listen to them say they want impeachment. Or don’t want impeachment like Ben Sasse in Nebraska. Nebraska is a cool place. Imagine if a hypothetical impeachment took place? Then we would have another impeachment.”

There is no reason to listen to any of the Nazi speeches. They add no information, they are mere tub-thumping for their derp followers.

Just move to the vote, get the Nazis on record supporting insurrection, and move on.
 
So, impeaching Trump after he lost is disenfranchising voters?

And the house managers are bad for bringing video, but it’s ok for him to bring video?
 
How many loopholes are they going to invent?

Can’t convict because he’s no longer president. Can’t impeach because there wasn’t long enough time for investigation and due process. But they also say there would be no such thing as a January Exception if their first two arguments are correct.
 
He probably is, but a stumbling defense is perfect for him. He won't lose the vote in any case, and he'll be the victim of incompetence.

Well remember the first crew quit. This is the best he could do with the few clowns left who can defend him. Should have had Jenna Ellis do it at least she would have used the Big Lie.

From the little I have read the Trump defense seems to be on par with Insurance Company lawyers who know they lost so just beg not to be dealt massive damages. Its not about right and wrong its about "but what about that slippery slope!!".
 
The whole hour and a half was brilliant.

We are going to hear so many absurd excuses to give Trump a free pass over the next week or so. It’s hard to believe one of our two main parties openly supports mob violence to overthrow democracy and killing thousands of people in a pandemic every day.

If you haven't seen it building to this for the last 30 years, you ain't been paying attention.

This was no fluke eruption of violence, out of nowhere. This is what they've been actively working toward for half my lifetime.
 
I watched the 3 minute clip of Castor talking about Sasse...I don't say this lightly but that was Trump like in its nonsense. WTAF did the whole thing go like that because if so...they should convict Trump just for making us listen to this guy. I mean he is trying to threaten Sasse and by extension any Senator that is willing to convict but he is so drunk at the wheel it sounds more like he is just going on a 4chan rant. I expect to read that on CopingMaga not as a defense for the former President.

From WaPo:

Maybe Sasse wasn’t a winnable vote, but again, it was certainly a novel strategy.

And Trump allies acknowledged it as such.

“I’ve seen a lot of lawyers and a lot of arguments and that was -- that was not one of the finest I’ve seen," Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.) said.

Trump ally Alan Dershowitz also added on Newsmax: "Maybe he’ll bring it home, but right now, it does not appear to me to be effective advocacy. ... It’s not the kind of argument I would have made, I have to tell you that.”

Trump's followers are now claiming they all were just following Trump's orders. Seems like evidence to me...

Then There Is This Guy

Navy veteran Thomas Edward Caldwell led a band of the Oath Keepers extremist group to Washington on Jan. 6 to storm the U.S. Capitol, federal prosecutors allege, helping to mastermind a violent plot to stop lawmakers from certifying Joe Biden’s presidential victory.

But Caldwell’s attorney, Thomas K. Plofchan, says he isn’t just a retired lieutenant commander. Caldwell also had a top-secret security clearance and served as a section chief for the FBI after leaving the armed forces in 2009, Plofchan said.
Those details were revealed in amotion filed Monday asking a judge to release Caldwell from custody, citing his long military career and ability to pass vetting for the high-security clearance. His attorney also said that Caldwell hasdisabilities from his military service that would have prevented him from storming the Capitol.

I think we found Sicatoka!
