There are plusses and minuses to both. Exposing the utter corruption would be a YUGE plus. Dems don't have any witnesses to help their case. Are they going to call Sondland and have him repeat, "Trump said he wants NO QUID PRO QUO, Trump wants nothing."

BERNIE CAMP PUTTING OUT A LOT OF BIDEN BAD FOR BLACK STORIES...

‘Repeatedly Betrayed Black Voters’: Sanders Co-Chair Rips Into Joe Biden

January 12, 2020 2:56 PM ET

The national co-chair of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’s 2020 campaign tore into former Vice President Joe Biden’s record on race in an op-ed Sunday.

Biden has “repeatedly betrayed black voters,” Nina Turner argued in an op-ed published in South Carolina newspaper The State.

She hammered Biden’s opposition to forced desegregation busing and his work with segregationist senators and wrote: “Biden didn’t just vote for bills designed to prevent black students from accessing white schools: in a series of personal letters he actively courted pro-segregation senators to support the legislation.”

“Sanders, by contrast, began his work in politics by organizing civil rights protests. As a college student, he helped lead a local chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality in its push to desegregate housing. Sanders participated in the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s March on Washington and was arrested for protesting rampant school segregation in Chicago,” Turner wrote.

“In addition, Sanders has been pushing an education plan that supports local efforts to combat racial segregation,” she added. (RELATED: Nancy Pelosi Is Hurting Bernie Sanders Right Before Iowa)

“Biden also fought alongside right-wing Republicans to pass so-called ‘welfare reform’ that reduced financial support for low-income families,” Turner wrote, adding:

“Biden echoed former President Ronald Reagan’s dishonest ‘welfare queen’ language and wrote a column conjuring an ugly stereotype of ‘welfare mothers driving luxury cars and leading lifestyles that mirror the rich and famous.'”

Voting for Biden would be tantamount to “going backward for black voters,” Turner concluded, while voting for Sanders would mean “we are going forward into a future of empowerment and equality for all.”

Biden’s campaign didn’t immediately return the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment on Turner’s op-ed.

Biden has been a consistent frontrunner in South Carolina, where black voters are a key constituency for Democrats. Sanders, meanwhile, holds narrow leads in both Iowa and New Hampshire in the

I just read a news story about this guy. Can you imagine they wanted to run him against Trump!!!

Hogan had been seen as potentially the best hope of a small group of so-called Never Trump Republicans who wanted to run a prominent Republican against Trump.

YEAH, REPUBLICANS HAVE A HABIT OF ROYALLY SCREWING UP EASY WINS...


Mark Meadows: Republican Senators Will Be Taken to the Cleaners If They Think This Impeachment Trial Is Going to be a Fair Process (VIDEO)
January 14, 2020, 8:56 am by Jim Hoft

During today’s episode Mark Meadows warned Senate Republicans that if they think this is going to be a fair process in the Senate they better wake up.

Rep. Mark Meadows: The state of play is that in the Senate many times they have this gentleman’s way of interacting with their colleagues. And I can tell you that they will be taken to the cleaners if they think this is going to be a fair process. It wasn’t fair in the House. It won’t be fair in the Senate. This is all about 2020. It is all about November. And I can tell you, you have too many people from the Senate running for president that actually are on the nomination platform tonight on a debate. And what you have is a real fight between them and the President of the United States. So it will not be fair and the sooner that our Senators recognize that, and you’re right, Rand Paul has recognized that, he is willing to go into the fight. I’ve encouraged some of our other senators, some of our other champions that honestly have a huge microphone to do the same thing… Based on what I see, there is no case you should dismiss this right away… Rand Paul is setting the example.

This was a great segment.
Mark Meadows is ALWAYS worth listening to.

Not me. I think we need to kill those democrats in their cribs (figuratively speaking), or they will just do more of this impeachment crap.

“Don’t think you can just vote for Bolton and not the witnesses Trump wants,” Paul told senators at a party lunch last week, according to two attendees and two people briefed on the meeting. He advised that incumbent senators’ conservative base would be enraged if vulnerable lawmakers were seen as undercutting Trump.

This War Room episode on impeachment trial strategy is good. They have me worried at the beginning, but I think they will get it right...
