What Impeachment Exposed About Trump and 2020; Republicans Plan to Compel Whistleblower to Testify in Trump Senate Trial
By Townhall. . .Democrats cast President Trump as someone who is so self-driven that he’s attempting to subvert justice just to “win an election.” That his thirst for victory pulsates through his heart so obsessively that he would break laws to have foreign governments interfere in our process just so that he could beat a Democrat.
Yet here’s the unspoken truth: He doesn’t need to. . .
He is spending way less than any of the Democratic candidates at present, with hundreds of millions in cash on hand, ready to go to work when the time is right. But the truth is he’s had hundreds of millions in the bank since his victory in 2016. . .
In 2016 candidate Trump had no track record, but he had ideas, and he made promises. In 2020 he’s kept 87 of those promises, and he still has ideas not yet implemented.
In 2020 he will likely spend less money on media than his opponent. He will focus resources into going to meet voters at his enormous rallies. People will feel heard, they will look at his track record now, and will easily send him back to finish the fight. (Read more from “What Impeachment Exposed About Trump and 2020” HERE)

Republicans Plan to Compel Alleged Whistleblower Eric Ciaramella to Testify in Trump Senate Trial
By Washington Examiner. Republicans want to find a way to compel CIA officer and former National Security Council Ukraine director Eric Ciaramella to testify in the impeachment proceedings against President Trump.
Ciaramella, 33, currently working for the National Intelligence Council under the director of national intelligence, has been named as the Ukraine whistleblower. The whistleblower’s lawyers have refused to confirm or deny this, and Ciaramella himself has not responded to questions from the Washington Examiner.
The chief Republican counsel in the impeachment proceedings raised Ciaramella’s name during closed-door hearings. In open hearings, whenever GOP questioning had got close to Ciaramella or any other members of the Intelligence Community, Rep. Adam Schiff, the House Intelligence Committee chairman, shut them down.
Now, Republican members are arguing that Ciaramella’s past position as Ukraine director and his current work on Ukraine issues makes him a relevant witness, whether or not he is the whistleblower.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham told the Washington Examiner he could not imagine a Senate trial happening without the whistleblower testifying. (Read more from “Republicans Plan to Compel Alleged Whistleblower Eric Ciaramella to Testify in Trump Senate Trial” HERE)
