Quote Of The Day: Facts Will Eventually Come Out

"DONALD TRUMP’S presidency has been, among other things, a war against truth. So it’s fitting that in making the case for his removal from office this week, House impeachment managers showered the Senate with facts. Over and over again, Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.) and his co-managers laid out the hard evidence that Mr. Trump used presidential powers to pressure Ukraine into announcing investigations that would aid his reelection campaign, and that he engaged in unprecedented obstruction of Congress’s subsequent investigation.

Videos of testimony and damning statements by Mr. Trump, as well as images of revealing text messages among administration officials, were exhibited repeatedly on the Senate floor, prompting some Republicans to complain that they were being forced to rehear the same pieces of evidence. So be it: GOP senators intent on exonerating the president without bothering to fairly consider the case against him should at least be forced to face the reality of his abuses. [snip]

Mr. Schiff pointed out that, whether or not GOP senators demand relevant testimony and documents during the trial, more facts will eventually come out. Those who choose now to disregard the evidence against Mr. Trump and abet his obstruction will be reduced to watching in the months and years to come as the case against him — and against their abdication of constitutional duty — grows steadily stronger." (our emphasis) -- an editorial from the Washington Post.

Knowing that if they vote to exclude testimony and evidence and acquit Dear Leader as expected, the Susan Collins / Lisa Murkowski / Cory Gardner/ Mittens Romney faux "moderate" elements will be shamed and disgraced along with their cohort going forward is the sweetest part.

BONUS: You better believe Rethugs are nervous about the scenario that's going to unfold as new bombshells burst, as this report indicates.
