All knowing Schiff:
Let's all worship the new god of Babylon, with feet of clay. When collapsed and crushed like chaff on a threshing floor, which the wind carried away so that no trace was found.
Btw, straight from memory. You all should consider yourselves spared that I don't go biblical that often. But Schiff is a flat out tool.

Wasn't "the phone call" suppose to be all the evidence we needed to impeach? And now it's "without these witnesses that we didn't have time to take to court, must be heard". I will laugh my ass off if McConell agrees to witnesses and Trump plays the EP card on all the witnesses the Dem's want and the Republicans call all the witnesses they want just like the Dem's did in the House.

Schiff could take a lesson here"
Percy Shelley's "Ozymandias"
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.[4]
UC - thanks for the inspiration!

oeb,
I can throw Roman and Greek mythology, and ancient politics quite well also.
So I'll just suggest that if one of the Dims wants to play the part of Julius Ceaser, they may not want an invite to the Theater mid March.
As with any other happenstance, history always repeats itself.
It's quite interesting when the kids being taught, wake up to how some of this stuff is actually directly connected to warfare. Ancient and current. Thus, why it's still taught.
