This is not about outcomes (67 votes to convict). This is about the American people better understanding Trump's complicity and maybe even joy in the January 6 attack on the Capitol. That's what Schumer and Company failed to understand until this morning. — PolitiTweet.org

Factual question: Do we know when Jamie Raskin told Schumer and Senate Democrats that he was going to ask for witnesses? I have not seen a news story answering that rather relevant question. — PolitiTweet.org

If you had 3 witnesses: @HerreraBeutler , @SenTuberville and @VP45 ?

@turylevy I assume that it was a Senate procedural vote (I'm not a parliamentarian) that gives him some power to make motions because he voted in the majority. Not a change of view, but rather legislative mischief. — PolitiTweet.org

I wonder if the only way we will get witnesses is if Schumer faces last-minute pressure on his left flank to question McCarthy. Remember that Schumer is up in 2022 and @AOC has not ruled out a primary. — PolitiTweet.org

@rschles Haven't spoken with Herrera Beutler, who is one of 10 House Republicans to vote for impeachment. But, having crossed her personal Rubicon, I wonder if her statement was provoked by the seeming defeatism of Senate Democrats in not pushing for witnesses. — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe it's me, but I don't see anything about GOP Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler in either the WPost or NYT. She quotes Trump saying to Kevin McCarthy during the attack: "Well, Kevin, I guess those people are more concerned about the election than you are." https://t.co/TZMdadq6qX — PolitiTweet.org

I am stunned by this news, as well. And since he is a member of Congress, I can't see how McCarthy could decline to testify. The same for Tuberville. Having gone this far, it would be malpractice for the Democrats not to push for witnesses during a holiday week. — PolitiTweet.org
