Charges brought by the house. I believe these documents are also of great importance to making sure senators have the information necessary to make a fully informed decision, this terribly weighty decision. The house has built a very strong case against the president. Maybe thats why leader mcconnell doesnt seem to want witnesses, at least not agree to them now. Maybe thats why the president is afraid, because the house case is so strong, that they dont want witnesses that might corroborate it. The evidence the house put together includes public testimony given under oath by numerous senior officials appointed by President Trump. These are trump 57. Teas were calling, not some partisan democratic. Some republican senators have said that, while the charges are serious, they havent seen enough evidence to make a decision. Thats one of the reasons i propose subpoenas for these witnesses for these documents, all directly relevant, from officials who have yesterday to testify during any sta

havent seen enough evidence to make a decision. Thats one of the reasons ive proposed subpoenas for these witnesses and documents all directly relevant from officials who have yet to testify under oath during any stage of the house process. Senato
little closer to them. now, benjamin franklin left the constitutional convention and said the founders have created a republic, if you can keep it. there are no guarantees. our system of government will persist only if we fight for it, and the simple question for us is this. are we willing to fight for this democracy? i expect we ll have a lot of debate here today. i hope everyone searches their conscien conscience. to my republican friends, imagine any democratic president sitting in the oval office, president obama, president clinton, any of them. would your answer here still be the same? no one should be allowed to use the powers of the presidency to undermine our elections or cheat in a campaign no matter who it is and no matter what their party. we all took an oath, not to defend a political party but to uphold the constitution of the united states. history is testing us.
