Have to say I'm really enjoying the hunter biden impeachment so far.

The GOP counsel is definitely trying to unsettle the ambassador: the three other ambassadors have been given appointment in the senate whereas [unspoken] you have not been appointed making you only the Charge D'affairs in Ukraine. Counsel implying Rudy was in Ukraine only to find out if Biden Jnr was a secret mole using Ukraine assets to interfere with the 2016 campaign.

Republicans not doing a very good job

Jim Jordan's body language screams sheer angst to dismantle the witness. But this is what Conservatives asked for - Lou Dobbs last night implored the RNC to "ROAR" at this hearing today. Their show doesn't seem to be for moderates, but rather to keep Trump's base, reinforcing they will decide this impeachment at the polls.

Jordan got his viral moment where he got to paint Sondland and Taylor as conspiring to perjure.

Taylor just has such a presence, even in his vocal delivery. He is going to make for a good TV witness I would wager.

Kent is far more impressive, I think.

Kent is a much easier digest yes he's a very bespoke gentlemen in that regard.

He's far more direct in the way he speaks.

Which you wouldn't expect given his 'my fathers father' opening statement, but even that was composed fairly well by the time you get to the end of what is seemingly meandering in the start.

Schiff committed purgery, this is a blatant lie. Nothing he says can be taken as the truth.

Can you post the link showing Schiff swore or affirmed an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth at the hearing which you believe he broke and committed perjury?

You know what I mean, he's a liar and just proved it.

Am watching it on delay - I find Taylor very hard going.
Kent's answers are very concise and he is much easier to listen to.

Overheal

They make a big deal about the timing of Taylor and Kent being the first public hearings scheduled, as if Trump is lining up to be sworn in!

Perjury is a very explicit offense.

Overheal

6th Amendment argument. 6th Amendment applies to Criminal procedure, which this categorically is not. Badgering the witness about the 6th amendment, because?

Overheal

Jim Jordan did a lot of soapboxing there and I hope for his sake the things he said were matters of fact actually are that, I'd hate to lock him up for purgery.

Overheal

Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) is cranking up BlanketGate

and now Conspiracies about Russia conspiring with Obama 7+ years ago

Really, what do you think about the thousands of lies from Trump?
Seeing as you're concerned with the truth.

Lol at the reply from Mr Kent re corruption in Ukraine, Rudy's presence in Ukraine and the removal of the US ambassador there after her fight against corruption there: You cant do the job without pissing off some-one.

Trump lies all the time. I never see his fans complaining about it or even addressing it at all.

What do you say to the Ukranians who've lost a loved one as Obama was in the Russians pocket.
It's all starting to come out.....crazy little thing called the Truth.

Clearly, there are two different hearings happening right now:

A) An Inquiry into events of the Ukraine situation
A Republican show trial - which they've gaslit for weeks about, by accusing the Democrats of doing this.
