@RepAdamSchiff

Today, Laura Cooper did her lawful duty and answered questions from both parties.

She did so notwithstanding efforts by the President to stop her, and when those failed, efforts by his GOP allies in Congress to do the same.

We will not be deterred from revealing the truth.

1. I find comfort in his dignity.

Rep. Schiff gives reassurance that we are going to survive this madness.

[MyOwnPeace]

15. What a WONDERFUL response!

"comfort in his dignity."

What a contrast to what we see from this mis-administration.

[madaboutharry]

23. It is true for me.

He has a calming and dignified presence. I can believe things will be ok.

[Marie Marie]

26. I've said it before - he has the cool demeanor of Pres (No Drama) Obama.

He doesn't easily rattle and just plods along, doing his job exceptionally well. He and Nancy make a formidable team.

2. If Democrats hadn't taken the House, Republicans would have given Trump his Enabling Act

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enabling_Act_of_1933
Gesetz zur Behebung der Not von Volk und Reich ("Law to Remedy the Distress of People and Reich" )

Article 1
In addition to the procedure prescribed by the constitution, laws of the Reich may also be enacted by the government...

Article 2

Article 3

Article 4
Treaties of the Reich with foreign states shall not require the consent of the legislative authorities. The Reich government shall enact the legislation necessary to implement these agreements.

Article 5
This law enters into force on the day of its proclamation...

5. WINNING the House Victory was

Vital! We wouldn't be having Impeachment proceedings, either.

Thank you to Nancy and all the Dems!

34. This has been clear intent of the Reopublican Party for the last fifty years.

I have posted Dr. Lawrence Britt's "The 14 Characteristics of Fascism" on this board several times over the years. It is a clear and concise description of the program that the Republican Party has pursued for the last fifty years. It has been coupled with their attempt to enforce their radical Unitary Executive interpretation of the Constitution to establish a authoritarian presidency along with the so-called opinion of the DOJ that a president can not be indicted while in office which clearly is a contradiction that no man is above the law.

37. We were that flippin close

To losing the whole thing

It's obvious that we (they) were heading there

In my view we were saved not so much by men but Women who decided enough was enough and stood up to be counted

Weaker sex my ass

40. I just wish we hadn't lost ground in the senate.

He would be impeached already, and the case before the democratic senate already.

Mahalo for Adam's Tweet, BRDS!

[BumRushDaShow]

6. Mahalo Cha!

That's the latest thing the media is now putting out there - i.e., the number of Republicans who joined in that stunt, who are actually on the Committees hearing the testimony and are permitted to be there (and have been there since this all started). That makes it even more a stunt as an attempt to assuage their Dear Leader and make the group appear larger. But they miss the fact that the other 150 or so GOP members were not there with them.

[Cha]

7. Good to Know.. about the "media"..

Thank you! The gops are just hoping to fool their base which doesn't seem to be rocket science.

[olegramps]

35. I would suggest that "their Dear Leader" be read as "their beloved Fuhrer."

[SCVDem]

11. Did they bring

their smart phones?

Clearance pulled!

[TryLogic]

36. Bingo. Clearance no longer appropriate.

[NastyRiffraff]

41. They accuse Dems of playing to the camera

Except of course when they whine about hearings being behind closed doors. Those 13 just wanted to mug for the cameras, and maybe get some free pizza.

[Ferrets are Cool]

8. Storm Trumpers

[YOHABLO]

18. Call them what they are: Nazi's! That's exactly what one would expect from brown shirts.

Absolute disregard for the law; for the Constitution.

[a kennedy]

19. "Space Force" Trumpers.

[Hassler]

9. Every authoritarian needs his flunkies. The GOPee is a clown car full of them.

[BigmanPigman]

10. This stunt was so lame from the start

it is likely that the fucking moron had a hand in planning it. Naturally it was doomed to backfire.

[onetexan]

13. the moron is a thug, so it naturally follows his tactics are thuggish

21. That's his way of rebelling against common decency I suppose. What a screwball.

Disgusting human

20. Heh, can't wait for Fat Nixon's rage-tweets. (n/t)

[rickyhall]

22. Fat Nixon. I like that. Dummer than Nixon though.

[Arazi]

24. This is a good statement but Schiff now needs to zealously protect everyone else testifying

Sorry but this obstruction by Gaetz et al was obviously planned well in advance. Schiff had no word of this beforehand?

Whatever the truth of the matter Schiff needs to massively up his game. The gauntlet is thrown and Schiff needs to ensure these witnesses NEVER face this kind of intimidation again or they'll stop coming.

Step up NOW

32. Media must get it straight: they didn't just "disrupt" or "storm." They broke national security law.

[elias7]

33. Bloomberg. Get better reporters.

The last paragraph of the article goes like this:

“Representative Eric Swalwell, a California Democrat, accused the Republicans of violating security protocols by bringing phones and other electronic devices into what is supposed to be a secure space used for classified materials.”

Rather than doing actual investigative reporting and being able to come outright and state that, “Yes, we have corroborated that there are security protocols, and that Republicans appear to have violated them”, they leave Swalwell holding the burden of truth.
