Sen. Rick Scott: "I'm open to calling witnesses for the impeachment hearings"

I don't recall any democrats publicly saying they'd vote against it and then voting for it.
There's at least a half dozen republican senators that vote one way and say the exact polar opposite in public on this issue alone. All of them fold like cheap suits on something.
"We'll protect your pre-existing conditions!" *signs onto lawsuit trying to reverse protection for pre-existing conditions*
It's not the democrat's fault these are party line votes. One of the major political parties in the USA is composed of lying sacks of shit. You don't compromise with a liar, because they'll lie about compromising, they'll lie about what they compromised on, and then they'll lie so more. They weren't gonna follow the compromise anyway, you just gave away free shit. When some asshole tells me he's coming over for a quick beer and doesn't leave for a month, that asshole gets kicked out and never invited over again.
Republican politicians are entirely various tonnages of scum and pedophilia. They need to be put down. Republican voters are at this point either so ignorant they are functionally retarded and need daily assistance, or also scum.

Yeah, and bothsidesism is another form of capitulation. Nope, fuck the GOP. For the rest of my life, identifying as GOP or MAGA and I will have less respect for you going forward than dirt. Your word will be shit, and you will not be trusted. Fuck Republitards.

Trump and all the Republican Senators are corrupt criminals of the highest degree.
There's only one possible reason why Republican Senators wouldn't agree to witnesses—its because it would make it even more obvious than it already is that Trump and the Republicans are all lying pieces of shit
First impeachment trial in history without any witnesses.
Just Republicans sucking loads out of Trump's balls as always

Dem's are no different. This whole impeachment process is a distraction and nothing more. You do realize the Dem's have been voting for all sorts of things against the US population while attacking Trump? No, the MSM won't cover that fact.

I can find plenty of right-leaning articles in the NYT. 🤷🏻♂️
Here’s one I read today, arguing against impeachment and defending Trump: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/23/opinion/trump-impeachment-defense.html
I wonder whether conservatives get to hear any liberal arguments reading Fox News. Has to happen sometimes, right?

You're still missing the point, the impeachment has provided cover for the Dem's selling out and voting for most of Trump's initiatives. The MSM didn't cover that fact.
This is called cooperation or a one party political system. Trump and the Dem's are on the SAME side. They both receive money from the same EXACT sources. It's a dog and pony show.
Show me the last time CNN or FOX said the statement "corporate lobbyists".

So turns out that was a bad example, though I agree that this should be front page news every day. Systemic problems aren’t easy to report on I guess.
“Washington lobbying business surges to eight-year high” https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/01/26/politics/lobbying-hits-eight-year-high/index.html
For the record, I’m on board with your central point. Politics is 95% theater and 5% improv comedy, regardless of party lines.
My only issue with what you post about nyt, WaPo, etc. is that you’re making them out to be the problem. IMHO journalism is THE LAST honorable profession, and real journalists have more integrity than anyone else. True journalists - yes, they still exist - sincerely STRIVE to be objective, though they’re still human (biased) and it shows through in their work.

I agree with qman. True journalists rarely get hired to mainstream media channels. Journalists that veer from the establishment narrative, such as Ed Schultz, Cenk Uygur, and Phil Donahue, get fired.
True journalists are people that report what they believe needs to be reported, not what the establishment tells them to report.

There are 2 types of journalists - those who dream of one day writing for the likes of nyt and WaPo, and ones who already work there.
What you said is the equivalent of “true actors rarely get hired by HBO and Universal”
NYT is the major league of journalism

Sure, Fake News is major league stuff for some journalists, but what is major league about getting caught time after time with lies and biased reporting? What is major league about admitting it's a major problem at your news organization?
The New York Times doesn't have credibility with the general public. If you think a circle jerk of journalists makes Fake News credible, I have some bridges for sale.

BTW, working at Fox makes people a lot more money than the NYT's. Does that add to their credibility? Big money is major league and working at Fox is where the money sits. Guess what? Fox still sucks.

I gave you examples of journalists that were fired for veering from the establishment narrative.
Why don't you show us an article from the NYT or WaPo endorsing a true progressive for President (like Bernie or Tulsi), rather than one of the big corporation cock suckers?

NYT isn’t the major league of journalism because of the money. The most senior reporters get 110k.
It’s about being part of the most trusted, most well-ESTABLISHED news source in the world. (Go ahead, jump on the word) Guess who has the most Pulitzer Prize winners? Most George Polk’s? Guess who Bush (an establishment president if there EVER was one) admitted to hating?
Quote:
At a campaign event in early September of 2000, Bush, unaware that his microphone was on, leaned in towards running mate Dick Cheney and said, “There's Adam Clymer - major league asshole - from the New York Times.” Cheney responded, “Yeah, big time.”
Now Fox News doesn’t hire any real journalists, as far as I know (I tried to find 1). And Guess who tried to help Nixon silence the free press?
Quote:
“Richard Nixon’s experience with the press during his campaign against JFK, mainly his perceived loss in their televised 1960 debate, made him acutely aware of the media’s power. As a result, he entered office determined to control his media coverage. He created the White House Office of Communications, and hired a strategist to help him improve his television appearances. That strategist? Future Fox News CEO Roger Ailes.”
