Washington Post: Phone records from AT&T and Verizon obtained in impeachment inquiry spark controversy
WASHINGTON - Phone logs subpoenaed from Verizon and AT&T put a spotlight on the powerful tools at lawmakers' disposal as they seek to investigate President Donald Trump in the impeachment inquiry.
The records were some of the strongest circumstantial evidence included in the House Intelligence Committee's impeachment report this week, revealing extensive contact between Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, and the Trump administration during critical points of the Ukraine saga. They also exposed calls between a Giuliani associate who has been indicted in New York, Lev Parnas, and the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Devin Nunes of California.
Republican lawmakers are blasting Democrats' decision to publish the records of Nunes' calls, as well as call records from John Solomon, a conservative columnist formerly at The Hill. Nunes said in a Fox News interview the inclusion of the phone records in the impeachment report is an infraction of his "civil rights" and promised to explore "whatever legal remedies I have."

Update: Republicans angry and concerned about Schiff release of phone records (Byron York, Washington Examiner).
WNU Editor: Not surprised by the revelation that President Trump and Rudy Giuliani talked a lot on the phone. After-all he is Trump's personal attorney. What is disturbing is that Democrats used their Congressional Committee authority to obtain the records of a fellow Congressman and a member of the media. This now sets a precedent, and it is going to be quite a sight to see when this authority to obtain these records will be used against the Democrats.

Earlier this year, Texas Democrat Al Green said,
"If we don't impeach this president, he will get re-elected."
Clearly, he doesn't think things are going well because now he's saying a
“president can be impeached more than once”
and that there is
“no limit”
to how many times the House can vote to impeach.
Impeachment as a political advert campaign

Did Commissar Schiff employ KGB tactics to spy on his rivals as well as Trump?
Actually being accused of being a commissar is a point of pride among liberals.

I don't see anyone on the dem side going to jail! They feel immun!! Sickening but I also see a drive for next week filing for impeachment to align with the IG report - can someone say Wag That Dog!
Dems are using the "proof in numbers" tactic @me2 era. They will try to convince the public by using an overwhelming amount of "witnesses" or "victims". We are in extremely dangerous territory if this lawlessness and mob mentality introduced by the Democrats is spreading. Complete anarchy. No more due process. Want a fat paycheck, publicity and a book deal? Be an obstructionist, virtue signaller or cnn anchor accusing half the country (more than 60 million of voting age and obviously their children and brethren are despicable racists too)
If you vote Democrat in 2020 you should be ashamed of yourself
