Just when you thought the Democrats could not be more out of touch with the American people, they are doubling down on their show trial of FORMER President Trump.
I’m guessing they want to use this trial as the basis for their plans to persecute all of us that supported Trump in his crusade against the entrenched Washington kleptocracy.
The problem that the Democrats are facing is easily explained by the old saying ‘Oh! What A Tangled Web We Weave When First We Practice To Deceive’.
Now Pelosi is staring down the barrel of being called to testify, under oath, about what she knew, when she knew it and why was there not adequate security for the Jan 6th rally …
The Gateway Pundit reported:
‘Democrats flipped the script this morning after their case collapsed on Friday against President Trump.
Democrats now want to change the rules and call in witnesses. This comes after Senator McConnell announced he will vote to acquit.
This comes after Republican Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington leaked news on a January 6, 2021 phone call between House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and former President Donald Trump.
According to the Seattle Times — Rep. Jaimie Raskin, lead impeachment manager, called Saturday morning for Republican Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington to be subpoenaed for the Senate trial, saying her corroboration of a Jan. 6 phone call between House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and former President Donald Trump was critical. Beutler, one of the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump.
Kevin McCarthy denies the leaked report by Herrera Beutler.
Republican Senators Collins Murkowski, Romney Sasse and Lindsey Graham voted for witnesses.
According to reports the Trump legal team requested to call in Speaker Pelosi and Washington DC Mayor Bowser to testify before the US Senate.’
According to Dino Veletanilc:
‘BREAKING: The Trump legal team has asked to subpoena Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, and Mayor Muriel Bowser of Washington DC if the Democrats wish to call witnesses for the impeachment trial.
What kind of inside information do they have about the breach of the Capitol?’

Manu Raju tweeted:
‘Democratic senators said Chuck Schumer signaled to them he doesn’t know if House Dems will ask for witnesses.
“We were told just a few minutes ago we don’t know,” Ben Cardin told me. Cardin said he would be fine with witnesses but doesn’t think they’re necessary.’
A person familiar with Trump team strategy told me that if Dems seek witnesses, Trump’s legal team will try to call Pelosi and Bowser.
They would need 51 votes to subpoena the witnesses.
Dem managers have refused to comment this morning about witnesses

Manu went on: ‘A person familiar with Trump team strategy told me that if Dems seek witnesses, Trump’s legal team will try to call Pelosi and Bowser.

Pelosi, Bowser and Mitch McConnell refused increase security on January 6th for the US Capitol … while President Trump offered 10,000 troops to keep the building secure ahead of the rally according to Mark Meadows and the Epoch Times.
Calling witnesses could backfire BIGLY on the Democrats … if the GOP has the balls to actually expose what really happened at the Capitol on the 6th.
Unfortunately, the GOP is made up of too many spineless cowards like Lindsey Graham who have no interest in anything other than their own political power, which has a direct correlation to the establishment that has been railroading you and I staying in power.
If this process was fair I would be jumping for joy, however, knowing the Democrats control the show trial I wouldn’t expect any truth to come from it.
UPDATE: DEMOCRATS JUST FOLDED THEIR HAND AFTER PELOSI NAMED TO BE CALLED AS WITNESS!
House impeachment managers folded after signaling they wanted witness. Instead they agreed to let Herrera Beutler's statement stand in as her testimony.
Closing arguments and a vote (likely acquittal) coming today.
