As we reported earlier, House impeachment managers wanted to call witnesses. But then when Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said he would first call House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), ask what did she know and when did she know it and start delving into all the facts that disproved their case, the Senate Democrats had a talk with the House managers and told them to back off and agree to a deal to no witnesses to get in the statement that they wanted.
So what was it they didn’t want people to delve into and have Americans know?
It’s just atrocious that Democrats have done what they’ve done in this impeachment process.
They’ve postured this case as though it were Trump inciting people and then not wanting to do anything in response. But they did a snap impeachment, failed to do a hearing and establish any evidence to support that.
There’s a good reason why they did that – because there’s more evidence out there that supports Trump and why there never should have been an impeachment to begin with and who it was that turned down the help of the National Guard.
Meadows had previously said that in an interview on Fox with Maria Bartiromo, according to Real Clear Politics.
Even in January, that was a given, as many as 10,000 National Guard troops were told to be on the ready by the Secretary of Defense. That was a direct order from President Trump and yet here is what we see, all kinds of blame going around but yet not a whole lot of accountability. That accountability needs to rest with where it ultimately should be and that’s on Capitol Hill.
Meadows noted how Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller would back him up on the issue and indeed, Miller does back him up, according to an interview in Vanity Fair.
[T] he acting secretary of defense, Christopher Miller, was at the White House with his chief of staff, Kash Patel. They were meeting with President Trump on “an Iran issue,” Miller told me. But then the conversation switched gears. The president, Miller recalled, asked how many troops the Pentagon planned to turn out the following day. “We’re like, ‘We’re going to provide any National Guard support that the District requests,’” Miller responded. “And [Trump] goes, ‘You’re going to need 10,000 people.’ No, I’m not talking bullshit. He said that. And we’re like, ‘Maybe. But you know, someone’s going to have to ask for it.’” At that point Miller remembered the president telling him, “‘You do what you need to do. You do what you need to do.’ He said, ‘You’re going to need 10,000.’ That’s what he said. Swear to God.”
Indeed on Jan. 4, Miller gave the authorization to give the support if asked for Jan. 5-6. according to his order.
Basically what they’re saying is they authorized the support, if it was asked for.

Here's an important question I've raised with another TPO member: how can we reach the 75,000,000 voters who voted for PRESIDENT Trump? Another question: how can we invite them to be TPO members? Without them, we're talking to ourselves ... preaching to the choir.
Time to impeach all this idiots for treason on trying to divide our country.
Demonrats sure love to lose but it is hard to succeed against a born winner like Trump is.
anyone who is upset over how this trial went shoulkd direct their anger at kamala the head of the senate - especially at the decision of not calling witnesses
Yes.
typical congress. all talk no walk. if you wait for congress then you will be waiting a long time to see something productive done . they stand before cameras spouting out recycled propaganda claiming to represent their constituents with the overall agenda of stroking their massive ill begotten egos
There is not one liberal/progressive/Democrat who has even attempted to put America and our citizens FIRST. The left despices this nation and all it stands for, they should just leave ...... or not and be forced out when the shooting starts and they start dying in droves. This statement is not "an if", it is a "when" statement ....... my statement is IT STARTS SOON!
The Dem party is long gone. They never consider the needs of the American People. If Moynihan was around now he would not recognize the party. It is a commie party.
BOTH parties are so intertwined with Communist China it should scare the shhhhh out of everyone. The objective is to destroy America by any means, economically(jobs to China), Illicit drugs from south of the border(50000 deaths /yr fentanyl/opiate overdoses), Invasion of our universities ,theft of intelligence, infiltration of the entertainment faction, including sports, influencing media, buying politicians, placement of their own grid generator/transformers within our country, oh...and btw....gain of function research for weaponized viruses....??
Thank all your neighbors who voted for China Joe....my God they don't have a friggin clue. Why do you think the Dems had them looking at Russia?? Pray for America, patriots, talk to you neighbors, remove form office the traitors that are facilitating this treason.
All too true. However questioning them might trip them and and people would be able to see what scumbags they really are. Just a thought (probably not a good one because msm would cover for them).
