Showing Original Post only (View all)**What/Where to Watch at Monday's Impeachment Hearing** THREAD 1 [View all]
Last edited Mon Dec 9, 2019, 10:13 AM - Edit history (2)
The basics: Who, what, when and how to watch. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/09/us/politics/trump-impeachment.html
Who: The House Judiciary Committee will hear presentations of the evidence by Democratic and Republican lawyers.
What: The opening arguments will be made by Barry H. Berke for the committee Democrats and Stephen R. Castor for the Republicans. Daniel S. Goldman, the Democratic counsel for the House Intelligence Committee, will then present the evidence for impeachment, and Mr. Castor will present the evidence against it. Judiciary Committee members will then ask questions.
When and Where: The morning proceedings start at 9 Eastern in the House Ways and Means Committee chambers. They will most likely last until late in the afternoon.
How to Watch***: The New York Times will stream the testimony live, and a team of reporters in Washington will provide real-time context and analysis of the events on Capitol Hill. Follow along at nytimes.com, starting a few minutes before 9.
After hearing from constitutional scholars last week, the House Judiciary Committee turns from theory to reality as it conducts its first hearing on the evidence in the case against Mr. Trump and examines whether his actions rise to the level of impeachable offenses.

On edit: it is possible network tv will cover, but they have not announced it and online tv schedule does not indicate (likewise did not announce in advance plans to cover last week's hearing). Obviously MSNBC and CNN will cover live.

Barry Burke is passionately strong about the facts. I hope he'll be a manager in the trial.

I see the Republicans are still being procedurally obstructionist and disingenuous.
