Backfire: Frequent Defector Lisa Murkowski Says She Was "Offended" By Obese Jerry Nadler's Claim That Anyone Voting Against Their Demanded Rules-Changes Was Engaged in a "Cover Up"

She voted against those rules changes, and Nadler -- who needs her vote later on -- claimed she was engaged in a "cover up" for doing so.

The Democrats still all think that their Blue Checkmark Twitter Bubble is real life.

House Democrats' handling of the Trump impeachment to date may be turning off Republicans -- notably, those seen as possible defectors in a final vote.

The first sign of a backlash among that critical group came Wednesday when Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, a moderate member of the conference, said she was offended by House manager Rep. Jerrold Nadler’s assertion that GOP members voting against allowing new testimony and evidence were engaged in a "cover-up."

"I took it as offensive," she told reporters Wednesday. "As one who is listening attentively and working hard to get to a fair process, I was offended."

Nadler's opening statement, which led to U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts admonishing those in the chamber, accused Republican senators of "voting for a cover-up, voting to deny witnesses, an absolutely indefensible vote, obviously a treacherous vote."

Meanwhile, Trump is trolling Adam Schiff:

One thing: The neck isn't pencil-like enough.

31 Ten minutes ago, Nadler said the House is within its rights to impeach a President for pardoning someone, even though the pardon power is absolute per the Constitution, if its judged he did so to cover-up a crime.

Nadler and Maxine and all the others talking "impeach impeach impeach!!" have no clue how this plays outside of their own little bubble; that's why Nadler didn't even realize how much he was screwing up his own case by insulting the Republican Senators.

This Senate is only going to go through this nonsense of a trial one time - if the House impeaches again, it will be extremely to dismiss that one on a straight party line vote at the outset, same for any other tries. They're not going to let the House hijack their time for foolishness, especially not in an election year.

Its not a genuine offense. But it is useful to deploy "emotion" as the reason you do something. Because then you do what you want, but you aren't answerable for the actual decision, because you were reacting to an offense.

-------------

They've been dumbing down public education for DECADES, and now they are trying to cash in on it.

The hope is that nobody in the general public will really know or understand how impeachment / separation of powers / Congress is actually supposed to work.

They are counting on everyone believing that Congress is every bit, if not even more powerful than the President, and by extension, any one Congresscritter is -also- more powerful, or at the very least, equal. On any subject. In any arena.

I think they're trying to cash this check too early still, but only time will tell. It is probably more true (that your average American doesn't really know just how these mechanisms work) than I'd like to see, but not true enough for them to get away with the blatant lies they are trying to pass off as truths.

Tim Scott made that point, and as far as it goes I think that's exactly right. This isn't about Trump at all, this whole Schitt-Show is about trying to get campaign material to use against 4 GOP Senators who may be on the bubble next year. I don't think it will work, but that's the plan - they know they can never remove Trump, and they don't care.

To put it bluntly, they are accusing Trump of using his position to interfere with the next election - when in fact their entire effort, from start to finish, has been about them trying to use their positions to interfere with the next election.

Except for the part about, with Biden, the only motive was a personal benefit. There was no legitimate executive benefit in getting Ukraine to fire the prosecutor and halt the Burisma investigation.


With Trump, they are legitimate executive functions to 1) investigate 2016 election meddling, 2) ensure that U.S. aid was not throwing good money after bad by ensuring that Ukraine's counter-corruption talk was not just lip service, and 3) to investigate the extent of corruption in the highest levels of the U.S. government, including the selling of the office of the vice presidency, and preventing further national security threats of a potential POTUS candidate being compromise by every tin pot dictator and his dog.

Their case is that Trump was doing this to get "dirt" on Biden for the 2020 race.

Incidentally, Gowdy gave Bret Baier a gentle smackdown when he said the allegation was Trump was looking for dirt on Obama. Gowdy told him dirt was a pejorative and had no basis in fact and what Trump was doing was investigating what Biden and team were doing in 2016, a perfectly legal and in fact duty of Trump's.

Read the comments. People actually think the House has evidence.

So the House may know they're full of shit, and the Senate may know the House is full of shit, and we know they're full of shit, but there is a sizable amount of people that believe the House.

In the months after the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton went into the woods. They became almost comic, the sightings of her that would pop up on social media, as the woman who had exercised uncommon influence over American political life, who had in fact won the popular vote and nearly became president, reduced to a soul-searching wanderer in the wilderness, wearing fleece and wondering what went wrong. People asked her for selfies in public locales whose mundanity stood in contrast to her former power. Here she was, the woman who had watched Osama bin Laden die in real time, who had led one of the first major fights for healthcare reform, who had sat with presidents and prime ministers and extracted from them commitments to do things that they did not want to do.

It goes on like this. And on. And on. This author must have a sad, pathetic life.

Interesting conundrum.

What happens when a House of Representative member lies to the Senate?

Normally, speech and debate clause is operative, but members can be punished by their own House, even unto expulsion.

Lying to Congress is against the Law, and the Senate DOES make its own rules.

263 "It is impossible to deny the reality that Clinton, as an uncommonly powerful woman, was also the object of tremendous sexist vitriol, a passionate fixation on her that animated even the legitimate grievances against her with an intensity unseen in critiques of similar male politicians. The media fixated on her thick ankles, and then they fixated on her masculine pantsuits. It became a common party joke to make strange and morbid speculations about her sex life. Her personal virtues were interpreted as suspicious: intelligence morphed into cunning, determination became ambition, resolve morphed into stubbornness, care and studiousness became dishonesty and scheming."

Fortunately, little of that happened here.

He can tell a story, but I'm not sure that's the same.

This whole presentation has been built on excerpting the most favorable testimony they had in the house and stringing it together without the context of republican rebuttal questions. If this was an original presentation that might be effective, but literally everyone that might be watching this probably also watched his committee's "investigation". There's no new audience for this that isn't familiar with the contrary evidence. So it's a good story told for the wrong audience, and the wrong story told for the audience he has. That doesn't seem to be a good way to try a case at all.

325 The Pakleds were effective as antagonists, and creepy. It's possible that a spacegoing race might steal its technology from a more advanced and yet trusting species; that the thieves know just enough to get the vehicle going (as modern imbecilic city-dwellers know enough to start a car and keep it moving, but not how to repair it). Thus it'd be in character for them to steal the knowledge they need.

I believe some of the authors who have written about Larry Niven's catlike kzinti in the Man-Kzin Wars series have suggested that the kzinti cleverly enslaved a more technologically advanced race and used their ships to get off-world and create an empire . . . until they met humans.

The lantern-jawed Alaskan coke fiend is as corrupt and opportunistic as they come, but instead of working with that, Nadler attacked her ego, guaranteed to set back his cause.

In fact, I am still concerned about the corruption in Ukraine and with Zelensky in particular. He's made some Trump-beneficial moves, but I don't for a second believe it is solely because they are the right thing to do.

Zelensky is just smarted than dems and knows that Trump will be around for the forseeable future. FYI, Zelensky beat Poroshenko with something like 70%. Soon after Trump won in 2016, Ukraine, under Poroshenko, nationalized the bank at the center of the USAID money laundering scandal, presumably to hoover up the evidence and take care of loose ends.

395 "He's an a**hole, but he knew how to present his case."


Are you people familiar at all with how a trial works? In the prosecutor's opening statement (which isn't evidence), he only presents his absolute best stuff. He doesn't talk about the defense's case. He obviously doesn't talk about holes in his case. Every prosecutor in the world, in every case ever, looks like a winner at the end of his opening statement.

397 I think they have given up on conviction and even on beating the President in 2020. They are focused on

a. shaking loose the Mueller grand jury material, hence Schiff's RUSSIA! remarks.
b. taking the Senate, hence Nadler's attack on senators for a 'cover-up'.
and
c. building a counter-narrative to massive criminality of Ukraine and Spy-Gate. The Leavenworth Option.

There have been no viral clips, no viral soundbites/quotes, right? That alone tells you it has been an epic fail.


Oh, Jen Rubin can tell you it was dazzling, but if there's no "Whoa -- check out this slam-dunk by Schiff. Yaz qween!!", no instant memes catching fire and being reworked/one-uped by the hour, it is not dazzling, not at all.

401 325 The Pakleds were effective as antagonists, and creepy. It's possible that a spacegoing race might steal its technology from a more advanced and yet trusting species; that the thieves know just enough to get the vehicle going (as modern imbecilic city-dwellers know enough to start a car and keep it moving, but not how to repair it). Thus it'd be in character for them to steal the knowledge they need.

I believe some of the authors who have written about Larry Niven's catlike kzinti in the Man-Kzin Wars series have suggested that the kzinti cleverly enslaved a more technologically advanced race and used their ships to get off-world and create an empire . . . until they met humans.

Well first bear in mind that is the total audience watching on all networks.

As a gauge, the NFL playoff games last week averaged about 41 million people on one network each. Not exactly the same thing but this is not really being watched by many people given how much hype it has been getting.

Right; a billion and a half years ago. The Thrintun built their own empire by using their telepathic hypnosis power and the clever tnuctip technology (but mostly the telepathic hypnosis power).

The storyline suggested by the M-KW writers mentioned another race as the ones the kzinti snared, but I can't recall the name. The Jotoki?

Hard to know what to compare it to, but one things comes to mind - the NCAA National Championship between LSU and Clemson scored 25.6 million viewers. Last year the NFL Superbowl scored 98 million viewers, may do close to that again this year.

When you compare to total voters, the 2020 electorate is roughly expected to have 130 million voters participating. 11 million means only 8 1/2% of them are watching this.

Over 91% of the expected electorate has tuned out.
