She tweeted that the tome - How Trump Haters Are Breaking America, by Kim Strassel -"provides good insights into today's proceedings".Mr Risch, a Republican who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, was seen this week slumped motionless with his eyes closed at his desk during the hearings.
Mark Warner, a Virginia Democrat, was observed leaning on his right arm with his hand covering his eyes for 20 minutes. Phones, laptops and tablets are a regular accessory during normal Senate hearings, but all electronics have been banned in the chamber for this trial, leaving many restless.What's Ukraine got to do with the Trump impeachment?
Talking is banned on the floor during arguments and senators are daily admonished by the Senate sergeant-at-arms to remain silent during proceedings"on pain of imprisonment". Press access to the chamber has been heavily restricted during the Senate trial, meaning there are fewer cameras to catch senators' unguarded moments.
Hardly surprising is it? Ridiculous that they even brought it in the first place. Dems only doing it because they know they will lose. Its pathetic and about equal to the Labour party here. Sooner its thrown out the better.
In so many ways the USA is a rather tasteless joke.
Good for senators. Watching and hearing Democrat clowns is like watching rerun of world chessboard competition.
America has become a circus. The outcome of this junk trial is irrelevant. Next election or the one after and another charlatan full of shit will take the helm and life for most will continue to degrade.
Hardly surprising given this is the most pointless and politically motivated witch-hunt in history. Obviously will be acquitted and will backfire spectacularly on the (anti) Democrats as it will increase his chances of re-election later this year.
I’m not surprised as the whole thing is boring me senseless and I’m not even American. This has to be the most pointless exercise since it was last tried with Clinton.
Who can blame them? Listening to the democrats fabricate 'facts' and tell grand stories would put anyone to sleep.
because it's a joke --- they could be going hard after him on the environment, but instead they focus on covering Creepy Joe Biden & Son.
Waste of fucking time !! I’m not watching that comedy show! Shiffs voice is enough to make me want to vomit
Stormy's bff will be proud of his sycophants
Gosh, almost like they think that the impeachment is complete bullocks and going nowhere. Why would they think that, do you think?

The joke that is American politics...
And we're paying them! Awesome!
The outdated Constitution is not fit for purpose. An impeachment trial would need to be non political. You can't ask 100 politicians to be impartial jurors. Trials should be for an independent judiciary to conduct.

And these people run the country.
This is why their country is now the laughing stock of the world.
LindseyGrahamSC LindseyGraham is the biggest violator of this. He has been observed by the press by only being present for 1/2, or less, of each days proceedings. The questions is 'Where is Lindsey Going'? Running to the White House to report back?
