Originally posted by Teallaura View PostNo, they haven't. Quit concentrating on the grandstanding (I admit, that is the fun part) and look at what the witnesses are actually bringing to the table. Thus far, it's been a big load of nothing - most being inadmissible at trial, one literally providing nothing material and no one able to testify to requisite motive. Sondland undermined the case further today.
To actually do anything, the House would have to pass a resolution, get subpoena power and get the principles to testify. But that's hideously risky - and I doubt they have the votes to pass it now.

Which was the general idea. Only 1, 2, and 3 would be things I would willingly do."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

This may (?) be of some use: Federal Rules of Evidence -- especially since, as I understood him, Lindsay Graham plans to "insist" that Federal Rules of Evidence apply if and when the Senate hears the case, and opined that virtually nothing of what was presented in the House would be admissible.
