.@AmbJohnBolton deserves to be taken at his word that he will respond to a Senate subpoena. He was in the room where it happened. He should be heard. If Trump tries to silence him, that’ll speak volumes. And it’ll add to Impeachment Article 2. — PolitiTweet.org

But if Bolton isn’t playing games, he could obviously testify despite Trump’s sneakiest efforts to silence him. No court will muzzle a willing Bolton. So bring it on! — PolitiTweet.org

What makes anyone think Trump won’t run to court to get an injunction against Bolton, claiming executive privilege and national security, if Bolton receives a subpoena? Any competent court would rule against Trump, but Trump would appeal. That litigation could last until Fall. — PolitiTweet.org

Exactly the right move by @SpeakerPelosi. Among other things, voting on this resolution and its Senate counterpart would make clear that Congress can exercise both of its most solemn powers at once: impeachment and warmaking. https://t.co/l2PQawPlxz — PolitiTweet.org

Even with the 67 votes required, Sen. Hawley’s proposed amendment to the Senate’s rules to allow it to dismiss for lack of prosecution any article of impeachment the House has delayed transmitting for 25 days might violate the Article I power of the House to set its own rules. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump on AF 1: “They’re allowed to kill our people, ...to torture and maim our people, ...to use roadside bombs and blow up our people. And we’re not allowed to touch their cultural sites? It doesn’t work that way." My hunch: Law or no law, that’ll sound fine to most Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s a question: If the Dems were willing to accept as final the Chief Justice’s rulings on which witnesses to call, taking their chances that he’d rule against them, would McConnell and Trump do the same? If not, that’d flush out their motives: not fairness but a rigged trial. — PolitiTweet.org

Targeting cultural sites is a war crime under the 1954 Hague Convention. Doing so to protect a president’s ego and deflect attention from impeachment would be an impeachable “high Crime” under the U.S. Constitution. — PolitiTweet.org
