Adam Schiff said it's 'absurd' that he or House Speaker Nancy Pelosi would testify in a Senate trial, saying that's just a Republican tactic to undermine the entire impeachment process.
But Schiff noted there are"too many Republicans" willing to go along with anything Trump says, no matter how absurd. He specifically called out Senators Lindsey Graham and Ron Johnson, accusing them of purely doing Trump's bidding.
Schiff said Republicans want to ridicule him and they want to identify the whistleblower before the Senate in order to undermine the credibility of the entire impeachment process. Schiff said that the only thing worse than a failed impeachment would have been no impeachment of the president at all. He expressed concern that"corruption in the Oval Office" would hit new highs if McConnell and the Senate give Trump a free pass.
Schiff said he doesn't know that it's within the Congress' power to convince Trump against cheating in the upcoming 2020 election. But he said the impeachment inquiry was important because"he cannot be permitted to continue this kind of misconduct."

Religious Conservatives Argue Adam And Eve Would Never Have Been Banished From Eden If They’d Had GunsHOUSTON—In what they described as scriptural evidence of the right to bear arms, leading figures among the religious right gathered Wednesday to issue a statement arguing that Adam and Eve would never have been banished from the Garden of Eden if they had owned guns. “Just imagine: If Adam and Eve had carried firearms and stood their ground against God, they would have been able to eat the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge in peace, and He could never have forced them to leave paradise,” said Pastor Hugh Peters of Houston’s Second Baptist Church, explaining how the entire course of human history would have been altered for the better if the first man and woman had taken the simple precaution of keeping a semiautomatic weapon at the ready for use during emergencies. “God was trespassing on their property, pure and simple. He had absolutely no right to force them from their home. Had Eve been able to open-carry a handgun, maybe tying it to her hip with a vine or something, God would have known to back off. This is one of the Bible’s most important lessons.” Peters later issued an appeal to Jewish conservatives, insisting the Israelites would never have had to flee Egypt if Moses had simply been issued a sidearm with which to kill the pharaoh.
