WAPO:

"Let's say it's true, okay? Dershowitz last night explained that if you're looking at it from a constitutional point of view, that that is not something that is impeachable," Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.) told reporters Tuesday morning.

"Alan Dershowitz said it was not" impeachable, said Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), a top ally of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). "And I don't disagree with that."

The ramifications are striking and could have long-term implications. The argument suggests senators believe a U.S. president can use taxpayer dollars to pressure an ally to investigate an American citizen who happens to be challenging him for president, without any repercussions.

I guess they also agree with Dershowitz that you should be able to rape 14 year old without repercussions.

Try Google it's easy

Step 1: copy that exact bunch of words into Google "GOP senators believe they have the votes to block witnesses"

Step 2: Google magically returns an article from The Hill plus a shit ton of other stories

Don't thank me just stop being so simple

Portion of U.S. border wall falls over in high winds and lands on Mexican side

Newly installed panels from the US border wall fell over in high winds Wednesday, landing on trees on the Mexican side of the border.


They paid for it. Might as well keep it.

1) we know how Google works.

2) the rest of us post sources.

3) stop being so fucking obtuse.

4) it was a simple question.

5) no one here is simple. we don't own your stupid decoder ring.

6) if you're going to be an asshat, STFU, since you're not contributing to anything.

Oh. You must mean this article. Which happened before today's proceedings even started. But you posted it at what? 6:45? Long after the reports came out that McConnell hasn't whipped up the votes?

Must have been so hard to translate "thehill.com article" to English in whatever communication means you use.

Dont forget to drink your ovaltine.

MSNBC literally just floated Trump shutting down November voting in certain states due to coronavirus.
