Mitch McConnell’s Obstruction

Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell (R-KY), has made it clear he isn’t interested in putting forth a fair Impeachment trial in the Senate, and will violate his oath by coordinating strategy with the impeached president, Donald John Trump.

McConnell has indicated the trial may exclude witnesses.

In the 1868 impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson, the Senate agreed to hear from 41 witnesses – 25 for the prosecution, and 16 for the defense.

"When you swear an oath to be impartial, you're supposed to mean it," Oversight Committee member Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz says of a likely impeachment trial in the Senate. "The reason that you have a trial… is so that your initial opinion can be shaped by that evidence." pic.twitter.com/70Jyps3BPI
