Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski came out Friday against calling witnesses in President Trump’s impeachment trial, all but assuring the Senate will move to wrap up proceedings with a likely acquittal in a matter of days, if not hours.

“Given the partisan nature of this impeachment from the very beginning and throughout, I have come to the conclusion that there will be no fair trial in the Senate. I don’t believe the continuation of this process will change anything. It is sad for me to admit that, as an institution, the Congress has failed,” said Murkowski, R-Alaska, a key moderate senator who has been closely watched on the witness question.

I am speechless. How can so many people sell their integrity in light of overwhelming evidence and facts?

So **** all of Trump syncophants in the neck.. You just put party before country. And for what? A worthless con artist who is morally bankrupt and is bankrupting this country to feed his crime family and his thuggish friends?

I hope this bites all these worthless pieces of **** right where they eat.

She is doing the right thing.
 
Re: Murkowski comes out against impeachment witnesses, putting Trump on path to acquittal

The lesson for Democrats in this should be the House can't remove the President just because they hate his guts. There's nothing in the Constitution about hate they need to come up with something better next time.

"...overwhelming evidence and facts"? Nonsense. Nothing posited is impeachable. What you "think" is evidence is hearsay at best, and without listening to the other side before rushing to indict, WORTHLESS, just as are all Dimocraps who think like you.
 
Re: Murkowski comes out against impeachment witnesses, putting Trump on path to acquittal

in light of overwhelming evidence and facts

Why do so many of you keep insisting the evidence and facts are "overwhelming" at the same time as insisting that more testimony is needed or it's all illegitimate?

Is it overwhelming, or isn't it?

So you don't allow others to act in conscience if you think they're wrong? Okay then.

Oh bull****. The facts in this case are undeniable. To suggest he didnt do it is nothing more than buying one's own bull****. It is complete and unadulterated willful ignorance.

That's like a kid. "I didn't do nothing!"

It was already overwhelming. Testimony notwithstanding.

Then why is it illegitimate if there's no further testimony?

No reason for impeachment is even alleged in the articles of impeachment and there actually was no witness with any knowledge that Trump did quid pro quo, bribery or extortion. The only with personal knowledge witnesses testified he didn't. "He cost my my job, I think he's did it" isn't evidence.

Obviously, the "facts" are deniable. You have your opinion, others have theirs, and they're oppositional. It really does no good to try to besmirch Murkowski by saying that she has "sold her integrity" because she doesn't see things your way; this makes you look knee-jerk biased in that "Don't bother me with facts--my mind is made up" way.

Jeeeezus H. Keeeerist on a cracker you cultists are just as thick as the audience at a Trump rally.

I was wrong. She had none to begin with.

It's really not that hard to come to grips with the idea that they can agree he did what he's accused of, but that it that it doesn't rise to the level of removal from office.

You ALL do exactly that with Clinton. No one disputes he committed perjury. You all dispute it was grounds to remove him from office. Therefore, his acquittal was fine with you, even though he was, in fact, guilty.

One need not be in any kind of "denial" to make the same distinction here. It does, however, require a degree of sophisticated thought to be able to contemplate it.

Way to double down. :roll:

Purely delusional.

How can you let common sense ruin a perfectly partisan argument? ;)
 
Re: Murkowski comes out against impeachment witnesses, putting Trump on path to acquittal

Not surprised in the least. Collins and Murkowski are sniveling cowards. They talk "fair and balanced" but their actions never seem to add up to it.

This is why outside of Internet and media bubbles, nobody cares.

Bingo.. I'm tired of their talking and pretending to be 'moderates', but then each and every time they cower to Trump. They are as big liars and conmen/women as Trump is.

If the evidence is so overwhelming, witnesses are not needed.

Collins vote with the dems and that isn't good enough. Your attitude is precisely why bipartisanship usually results in punishment.
