https://www.mediaite.com/trump/foxs-bret-baier-trump-gave-schiff-a-new-article-of-impeachment-in-real-time-with-twitter-attack-on-yovanovitch/

The dramatic moment during Fridays House Impeachment hearing in which Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) read out President Donald Trumps tweet blasting former ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch in real time with Yovanovitch saying she finds the tweet very intimidating may have amounted to an on-the-spot article of impeachment, according to one Fox News anchor.

Weighing in immediately after the hearing went to recess, Fox anchor Bret Baier said that the president gave Schiff ammunition in real time on Friday morning with the attack.

That enabled Schiff to then characterize that tweet as intimidating the witness, or tampering with the witness, which is a crime, adding essentially an article of impeachment in real-time as this hearing is going on, Baier said.
The Fox anchor went on to opine that that entire nature of Fridays hearing will change as a result of the Trump tweet with Republicans now forced to defend, or walk back, the presidents comments.

That changed this entire dynamic of this first part of this hearing, Baier said. And Republicans now are going to have to take the rest of this hearing to probably try to clean that up.

Don't worry they'll defend that obvious crime with a smile and more of them as he's found guilty and then the conviction is tossed out in the republican controlled supreme court and the public will go "Told ya so" because everyone knows Republicans are liars, cheats, corrupt as hell and whatever negative stigmas are associated with them but they don't care. Because while there's that there are SJWS and PCs and Communists and New age femisists and bratty college kids on the opposite end and fuck those guys!

He's never been held accountable for any of his illegal actions. His money and the privilege has always protected him so he's not really concerned.

Pretty much. It's him being able to kick around people below him his entire life and then getting punched in the face by someone above him. He is the real life Eric Cartman. A fat fucking delusional, lying, piece of shit who can dish it out but cries the .inite someone hits back.

It's an ouroboros of corruption. The GOP won't get rid of Donnie because they are the ones that will need to get rid of Donnie.

Because they're all just as guilty as he is. Remember the Senators who went to Russia on July 4th?

Hillary worked with Russians to make that pee dossier thing. That goes beyond Trump's supposed involvement with them.

How is she a strong witness when she was fired two months prior to the damn phone call?

Shes just upset because Trump isnt going thru the normal channels to negotiate with foreign leaders.

what can I say? The man thinks outside the box.

If they go against Trump, they lose the votes of his base of fanatics. They'll get primaried by a "true believer" or just lose their next election because Trump's base won't vote. It's why the only ones you see speaking out against him are the ones who are retiring and don't have to worry about it anymore.

Lmao Trump could have fired her because he was walking down the hall and stubbed his toe. This is no different than claiming that firing Comey (also someone the President could fire whenever they want for any reason) was obstruction of justice. And exactly like that "impeachable act" this will go nowhere.

Yep, the GOP tied themselves entirely too Trump and the whole "populist/nationalist" rhetoric and ideology because they knew they were fading as a party and needed to do something to grasp to power. But it's ultimately going to end in total collapse like we've seen happen every time political parties have done this across history. The GOP post Trump is going to be fascinating to watch, because there's no going backwards to what they were prior to Trump, when you latch onto a cult of personality you need to just keep digging deeper and deeper.
