McConnell has weighed in repeatedly by blasting the Dems’ impeachment case. So I asked him if that means he’s OK with Trump’s ask of Ukraine to probe a political rival. He wouldn’t comment on it

Mitch McConnell dodges a question from @mkraju on whether his position on impeachment means he believes it's OK for a president to ask a foreign country to investigate a political rival. The GOP leader says he won't "comment on the issue that's going to be soon before us."

I wonder if these idiots realize that this can have collateral damage in the future. Can you imagine 10 years from now the outrage on the right if a Democratic President is impeached and because of the rule change, a democratic-leaning senate dismisses the charges right away.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer says Nancy Pelosi had been waiting to send the articles of impeachment until she knew what the Senate trial would look like, and that following McConnell's statement the rules are now beginning to take shape. McConnell to move ahead on Senate trial rules without Democrats

“It is important that he immediately publish this resolution, so that, as I have said before, we can see the arena in which we will be participating, appoint managers and transmit the articles to the Senate,” Pelosi says

Pelosi: “This process is not only unfair but designed to deprive Senators and the American people of crucial documents and testimony. Under the Clinton trial, witnesses were deposed.” https://www.speaker.gov/sites/speaker.house.gov/files/Impeachment.1999.TPs_.01.06.2020.pdf …

Should've figured Pelosi was going to take an L as usual.
Not sure what anybody's expectations are but this trial is just going to be a sham and over extremely quickly.
