As inflammatory as sending a murderous mob to the Capitol? This guy is something else. He took an oath to "do impartial justice." This ain't that. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Ron Johnson told me the push for witnesses will “further inflame the situation”

This is the oath @tedcruz took: "I solemnly swear that in all things appertaining to the trial of the impeachment of, now pending, I will do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws: so help me God." Is this doing "impartial justice"? He broke his oath. — PolitiTweet.org

When van der Veen is not lying to protect a president who incited a violent assault on the Capitol, he is encouraging Philadelphians to use him to file slip-and-fall cases due to icy sidewalks. Makes sense. Nothing but the best people. — PolitiTweet.org

Seems to be within the power of the Democratic Senate majority to limit witnesses to "fact" witnesses. What "fact" witnesses could Trump's legal team call? The My Pillow Guy? #ImpeachmentTrial — PolitiTweet.org

Now that we are going to have witnesses no one can claim this is a fair trial unless both sides are now allowed to call them.
