There's a bad smell coming from Schiff's house, the California Democrat

Schiff

Monica Showalter: Fair impeachment for Trump? Not a snowball's chance in Schiff-town  . . . "Are the hearings, conducted in secret, in some dank Capitol Hill basement by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, going to be fair? For starters, they are secret, a big move to exclude voters from making up their own minds. Republicans have been shut out, making this specter a one-party show same as Obamacare.  Leaks already have provided lots of evidence of Schiff witness tampering, both against hostile witnesses as well as coordination with friendlies.

"Think these crazed Democrats will pursue fairness as Noonan says is the critical catalyst? 

"Not a snowball's chance in Schiffdom. Advantage, Trump."

Also by Ms. Showalter:  Schiff caught tampering with another witness  . . . "Yesterday, he got caught trying to shove words into a witness's mouth, to make him say things he didn't want to say. I wrote about that here.

"Today, he's doing something just as bad, getting together with other witnesses and working out a pre-coordinated story for the coming show trial.

"According to Breitbart News:" . . .

Gary Gindler:  Dr. Strangesсhiff, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Impeachment  "Who could have guessed that the words of Soviet secret police chief Lavrentiy Beria to Joseph Stalin, "Show me the man, and I will show you the crime," would be strangely embodied in American politics and jurisprudence in the 21st century?  Moreover, according to Dr. Strangesсhiff — congressman, chairman, and commissar — these wonderful words have recently found their way into the U.S. Constitution.

"Secret impeachment would seem to be a new idea, but the curious Dr. Strangesсhiff borrowed it from the closed Soviet trials of dissidents, "enemies of the people," and other "undesirable elements."

"Bravo, comrade Strangesсhiff!  Please, continue the Orange Man trial behind closed doors.  After all, the American people are ecstatic about closed hearings without access by journalists or lawyers.  They are also especially fond of the removal of the president based on an anonymous gossip-monger, or two, or three.  The number of blabbers is not important, since the transcripts of their testimonies will never be published (not because they are not there, but because that is exactly what the intent was)." . . .

Is everything happening in the basement of the Capitol a mockery of the impeachment process?  Of course.  However, most of all, Americans are interested in only one question: what kind of trick will the Democrats come up with after the hocus-pocus of a permanent palace coup, permanent impeachment, and permanent figureheads fails again?
