As the sun set over Washington the impeachment
trial mind-numbingly droned on. Just
before the 8 o’clock hour Politico published a report revealing the ringleader
of the sham impeachment of President Trump “mischaracterized” evidence House
Democrats used in their investigation.
The report states Schiffless sent a letter to
Waddles Nadler last week summarizing “a trove of evidence from Lev Parnas.” In one section of the letter, Schiffless claimed
Parnas “continued to try to arrange a meeting with President Zelensky” citing a
specific text message exchange where Parnas told Giuliani “trying to get us mr
Z.” The rest of the exchange attached to
Schiffless’ letter was redacted.
An unredacted version that fell into Politico’s
hands shows the interview was with the founder of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky,
and not Ukrainian President Zelensky.
Democrat officials did not dispute the suggestion
Schiffless’ claim was patently false.
A senior GOP aide said,
“The most charitable view of the situation is that [Schiff’s] staff committed
the equivalent of Congressional malpractice by not looking more than an inch
deep to determine the facts before foisting this erroneous information on his
colleagues and the American public.”
“But given the
selective redactions and contextual clues, it seems as though Chairman Schiff
sought to portray an innocuous meeting with Ukrainian oligarch Mykola
Zlochevsky as an insidious one with the President of Ukraine simply because
both of their surnames start with the letter Z.”
One of my heroes from
the House Intelligence Committee impeachment proceedings back in November of
2019, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), responded to the breaking news in the following
tweet:
“Schiff’s sham
impeachment is littered with mischaracterizations, falsehoods, & political
desperation. The more Schiff speaks to the American people, the more the
support for impeachment is obliterated in the court of public opinion.”

It was bad enough he made up the President's phone call in the House, now he's fabricating what the president of Ukraine said (no pressure) in the Senate

This concludes our broadcast day. Schmuck Schumer has introduced a total of
seven amendments in eleven hours so far. Each amendment calling for subpoenaing
witnesses and documents has been shot down tabled by a vote of 53-47.
