The Republican children have a list of 301 witnesses so far. I'm sure they've included the cafeteria workers from the capitol on the list.
They are making a mistake if they think getting Pelosi on the stand is going to get them anywhere. They will regret it.I love how the fucking GOP keep changing their story and somehow still believe themselves to be both the heroes and the victims of this story.
First it wasnt happeneing.
Then it was happening but it wasnt violent.
Then it was violent but it was the cops fault.
Then it wasnt the cops fault it was ANTIFAS fault.
Then they admit its Donalds fault but they arent going to do anything.
They admit he caused it. the only part they dont accept it holding him accountable.
This is exactly like the coronavirus and every other god damn thing since Donald first announced he was running for president.
Just a subpoena away.Who would you call as witnesses? Trump's kids? They were with him on the day, they could speak to his state of mind. Or what about his Secret Service detail?

EDIT: Definitely Rudy.
Hillary. I gauranfuckingtee that GQP Quislings will want to parade Hillary in front of Congress for some bullshit reason. They'll want to talk about Bengazi for days, as if it is somehow relevant. Just watch.
See the projectionists (Republican Senators), are seeing themselves and their motivation for Benghazi and assume that this is just like their show trials.Hillary.

I promise you every single one of them will be reelected next year."Republican senators insist that no minds will be changed if witnesses are deposed because they are resting on their procedural argument that there shouldn’t be a trial in the first place for a former President. "
This argument has already been to rest. It was voted constitutional by the Senate. The fact that this is their reasoning to let Trump off shows they do not honor their oath, the constitution, our founding father's, or the very governing body that they are a part of. They are supposed to base their decision on the evidence. They are a disgrace to this country.
You need 51 votes to call a witness, good fucking luck with that one
good point, but do you expect her to appear on their witness lists, at least the craziest sociopaths like Hawley and Gym pederast Jordan, Cruz? Lindsay, probably, because he made his bones skewering the Clintons. ....literally the only thing he's contributed to the GQP and the people that vote for him in SC.

Mitch wrote that letter in an attempt to forestall the witness vote
If they’re gonna call witnesses, pull the fucking pin and call Trump. Send him a big fat subpoena. They can subpoena him. He can take the 5th, if he wants, but that will be a pretty strong indication of guilt. Although this could lead to bogging down the trial, because most likely he will defy/contest or ignore it. He will still have to sit in that chair to plead the 5th…a chair with a microphone in front of it. Either way, if they even utter the words “The Big Lie” he wouldn't have the discipline not to go off on a free form jazz riff on how he really won in a landslide. Although this pretty much fantasy where Trump is called to the Senate to face a grilling where he pulls a Jack Nicholson under pressure, thereby causing previously reluctant GOP senators to vote to convict. I suspect anyone holding onto this thread of hope is going to be sorely disappointed.
But, I just want to see him plead the 5th in front of Congress and millions of viewers worldwide.
Call Herrera, and if her testimony is compelling and strong .. she leaves no room for McCarthy to do anything aside from say she’s telling the truth or she’s lying, then maybe call McCarthy and dare him to lie on the stand.
Put Tuberville up there too - to A) get the truth out of him or allow him to perjure himself and B) watch him squirm as he most certainly doesn’t even know what's going on around him. In general. He’s pretty much a dope.
The word on the street is that they will get the representative from Washington who spoke to McCarthy to give a written deposition where it will be entered into record after which they will have the vote or closing arguments.
