- House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff set off a confrontation with Republicans at the impeachment hearings Wednesday after telling witness William Taylor, the top U.S. diplomat in Ukraine, he should be "cautioned" about questions based on "facts not in evidence."
What a waste of government time
And money James!

Lmaoooooooooooo I smell a meme coming
I don't understand how some people can look at Shifty Schiff and think that's normal.
Dude looks like a complete sicko.
Shiff is on drugs and commited treason so he must be arrested and put in jail

There is something behind those shifty eyes that should alarm this entire country!!
Schiff looks like an alien.
He is sitting on a strap on gin bottle he got from Pelosi
thank u so...much
Good thing we've given these clowns power over our lives.
I need a decent outsider to be WH. Restore the integrity of WH and Capitol Hill.
YEAH, AND THE HEAD CLOWN IS IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
For being an ambassador the guy doesn’t know much of anything about the country he is paid to know about.
There’s gonna be so many people without jobs after this stupid hearing lol
@Hayden Briggs
Why? There's a allegation, there's evidence of the allegation, We're investigating to see if they're true or not.
Shouldn't bother anyone except Trump but if he commit Attempted Bribery (he clearly did) he has nothing to worry about and shouldn't block ANYONE from responding to a legal subpoena if there's nothing to hide.
Can't make it any clearer than that.
Stupid? Stupid are the republicans in power still backing up a corrupt person like Donald Trump.
Belisario Castillo you are stupid if you still believe the dems. They’re accusing trump of everything they did. They accused him of collusion when they admitted that they did and trump didn’t. They accuse trump of doing what Biden did and bragged about.
JrVtec there has been no factual evidence if you listen to all of the hearing it’s full of I didn’t here it first hand I don’t know and I wasn’t there but was told by my assistant. Exactly what evidence are you referring to, if it’s the phone call the democrats have that and are not releasing it as it doesn’t do there witch hunt any good.
@@belisariocastillo8695 stupid, is the blatant hypocrisy displayed by the liberal Democrats and their slow-minded dimwitted supporters.
Very poorly worded questions.
Incredibly convoluted. I probably couldn't keep a straight face in Taylor's position
Idk just like a toddler when they are lying lol
Back up. The timeline speaks volumes. If Trump was so concerned about the Biden's why didn't he have them investigated long ago?? Obviously money is always front and center of this administration. Timing is Everything.
Because Joe Biden wasn't his political opponent before....
Ukraine was already investigating Biden by the time the call was made. Trump's call was about confirming that and for making sure Crowdstike's servers matched what the dossier said.
For real though how are people like you so proud about being misinformed?
@@e.b.g7126 Exactly
@@e.b.g7126 you are a smart person! If I can like it twice I would have. No matter fact I'm going to unlike it and like it again
All I heard was "I don't know" over and over and he's their star witness....bahahahaha
actually he is not their star witness...
- because the questions have nothing to do with the witness and very little to do with the matter at hand.....
This lawyer guy asking questions is a genius. By forcing Ambassador Taylor to clarify things he has just proved there is NOTHING THERE. BUT You need to see this entire interview on another channel to see it all. The whole thing is a scam to protect Joe Biden and his son who is on the payroll of a Ukrainian gas company ( $50,000 a month ) , and China ( a cool $1 BILLION US DOLLARS, thank you very much ), so that he can instruct the Oval Office ( past, under Obama - and possibly future ) on what to do in the interests of self enrichment. But look, if you want IMMUNITY from investigation and prosecution, then all you have to do is run for President - then you and your family will be safe.
If the WH did not obstruct and threaten first hand witness, there would be more. Think about that - the Trump administration is BULLYING witnesses.
@@beet4416 how stupid do you have to be to be a dimocrat.
We the people need to put ourselves on the DC lawn
If the eyes 👀 are the window to the soul then Schiffs soul is in a dark place indeed
Drugs? Pupils shrink with loads of light. His are still a bit bigger than normal.
When do they get a box lunch?
Is the guy on the left okay?? He cant finish a sentence and talks in a very confused way😆😆😆😆😆. Like everything's a question
Most of this "testimony" was this just this guy giving his opinion about things and now Shiff wants to worry about "facts not in evidence." lol
Zkeleton Z right? 🤣🤣🤣
How you like them apples!?
Taylor: 'I heard that his response' hearsay !
Hearsay testimony is typically permitted in preliminary hearings and grand jury proceedings, which determine whether a defendant will actually be put on trial.
In a congressional setting, the House impeachment proceedings function much like a preliminary hearing. Ultimately, the House will decide whether to vote on articles of impeachment, the functional equivalent of a grand jury indictment. Those articles of impeachment would then go forward to the Senate for trial.
From 0:31 to 1:23 the most moronic and childish question. 1:25 face of the ambassador: WTF?!?!?! LOL!
Saw the Dems' attorney questioning. Knows he's been outprepared and is outclassed. He's nervous as all get out, and can't keep his hands off the mic.
Those are some nice chairs they're sitting on!
If you pay taxes then you technically bought it! They should be sitting on folding chairs !
fellogoodfella I pay taxes. And all of them are sitting on some nice chairs I don’t own a chair that looks that nice in my house.
danbanrock1 I agree with you! Did you see that wood grain double stack desk from wall-to-wall? Where do you even order something like that?
The chairs are thousands of dollars and I don't own one either. It's a shame that these people, so disconnected from the common citizen, are pushing our country towards the goals of those same individuals who sit in those chairs.
fellogoodfella That’s exactly what I mean. We need to start calling out things like this.
schiff doesn't know how to answer a question
vincent benveniste Extending this further, Schiff knows how to NOT answer a question. Also knows which questions to BLOCK or prevent. Cheers!
Schifft act like a father of Mr. Taylor. Another word schifft try to act as the father remind his child to answer the right questions.
All hear say.....
Then let Trump testify, he's got first hand. PLUS the transcript is FAKE! The real one is locked in a secured vault!

"Correct?" "Correct?" Castor asked the most stupid and leading questions, trying over and over again to get Taylor to agree with him on the record, and he FAILED miserably.
Castor's questions were legit. You want leading questions? Listen to Schiff questioning McGuire. McGuire at least, politely set Schiff straight and didn't look like an obtuse idiot like Taylor.
@@reneew5915 do you know the time line on that ? I missed that one
"Failed miserably" is not a negative or a positive. Based on what the question is and who is asked, can lead to the knowledge of or lack of, rolls played by individuals. It shows an avenue to go down that may very well lead to an intersect. This type of questioning is actually on the BAR exam.
@@LuisTorres-pe1jf Schiff keeps adding on "wouldn't you agree?" to the tail end of every question.

@David L He did an excellent job, that weasel Taylor was humming and hauling, he definitely said that he didn't know the President and he clearly said that he was "told" that President Trump asked for the investigation! We need to investigate Taylor! Sick of these liars!
And that weasel Adam Schiff's eyes were about to pop out of his ugly head! Why is he adamant about impeaching President Trump? What crimes is he covering up? We will find out, he is dirty!
Taylor looks like fred Munster and is about as smart.

A kangaroo court
Lol this isn't a court trial it's an inquiry.
They are just angry that Clinton did not win😂😂😂😂
You right lol
Being that he’s a US Ambassador (I’m assuming he’s not a new appointee), of all people, he should know the appropriateness of the President asking another President to look into something.
Not really. That has to do more with rules, regulations, and precedents that are in place. The guy is an ambassador not a lawyer. He would have limited understanding if there would be any legal issues regarding these sorts of contacts. I'd be surprised if he did.
Amigps01 - I see what you’re saying, and yet he’s in the business of dealing for foreign dignitaries as a go between us and them. Some familiarity mahouts be innate in order to determine when a foreign power wrongfully deals with him (quid pro quo). Sure it’s not the exact thing, but similar enough. I suppose that doesn’t mean he’d have to.
where are Giuliani, Pompeo & others who were there when Trump made the call? Shouldn't they be up there defending the Donald?
Why aren't the Bidens testifying for their crimes? Joe Biden has a video on actually saying how he threatened Ukraine, coming from his own mouth, and he thought that he was so cool too! Huge coverup but their days are numbered, we will not quit until these criminals are locked up and the American people have justice. It is not OK to run our government like a Banana Republic!
Why is this guy making this kind of face. That’s how he speaks to his kids at home?
LOL
Warch Taylor's reaction when the Durham investigation is mentioned.
This is worse then real house wives of anything. What a joke of time, money, and what a disgrace or power
Adam eyes when he stare looks like a vampire ....scary
Why does the minority attorney keep adjusting the microphone position? It completely distracts from what he is saying.
He's panicked. He's a chess player down two rooks.
I think Schiff did answer the question, I think Ratcliffe just didn't understand the answer. He made it short. He can make any challenges he wants, he's allowing a question despite facts not in evidence, not disallowing questions because of facts not in evidence. Objections on facts not in evidence will be most likely be heard. They may not be sustained, but they aren't being disallowed.
Counselling Taylor on the issue was quite the right thing to do after having him asked if "... some elements of the Ukrainian establishment ... were out to get him" after leading it with a mile long string words that included a few "facts not in evidence," theoretical adversarial elements and events, sheesh.
They may or may not exist, but they gotta actually appropriately introduce this stuff and not just try to sucker out some double edged responses on a complex situation.
Schiff wouldn't answer about future questions .. he said he would let this question be answered...Schiff is now appearing to me as not as bright as he would like us to think ... He's going to blow this thing anyway
@James Allen You clowns are watching something different than I am. The dems aint looking too good today. 😆😆😆
Schiff is supposed to be the chairman of the committee, not the witness's lawyer giving advice
@@anthonyd5192 So the Republicans talking about everything else totally unrelated to Trumps corrupt actions is what you think looks good? Deflection is not a defense
@@stevenp25100 That's true, but in any similar scenario, a chairman of an inquiry, a judge in a court of law, or anyone in a comparable position of authority has comparable responsibility to the poor non-guilty fellow being grilled. It's pretty common, accepted and appreciated. Taylor's not a defendant, he's a witness. It might be different if he was being accused or something. You might even argue he's guilty of something - but then you're way out in left field because this is a hearing.
John Bellinger is Taylor's attorney, he may or may not have counselled him on the topic but the point stands that Schiff's interjection was not inappropriate.
This person is wired questioning Taylor. Like his eyes and lips 🤣🤣🤣 what is he doing 🤣
He's more than wired, he appears to be intoxicated. He and Trump probably snorted prior to the hearing.
Beverly Elzen exactly how I felt! Intoxicated 😅
He’s asking easy questions and the Ambassador can’t answer. I’m not aware is not an answer that someone who is supposed to know implied thoughts of the president.
It sounds like trump dictated this to an intern, and told him "read this!"
Lmao... found a betamale. Only assertions huh. Mention about obama bowing down to syrian terrorist, or Clinton at epstien's island. You wont right.... justkeep bending over to your boyfriend
Deebo Nash betaaaaaa uhmazin
We need facts and evidence
He is mentioned Trump was concerned???? Taylor just tripped!!!!!ha
Is Taylor giving his testimony secondhand ??..Just Askin' !!
yes. and he's basically saying ... I heard it from, who heard it from, they heard it from... and i'm sure the Dems watching this are rolling their eyes but at the same time to save face... will still take the testimony as hardcore 1st hand facts...while everyone else in the world is asking: Is this the phone game?
I think most of it was 4th hand... gossip...
I suppose a CIA field agent (Whistleblower) would know how to create discord within governments.... I am sure they are trained to do it... I am sure they have done it before in my lifetime a few more times than I remember... but that is why they exist, isn't it? I am sure they understand how to manipulate people and take advantage... They are trained to work in the shadows... I am absolutely sure of these things..
Rep are blocking first hand witnesses.
Is he holding his breath or pooping?
It is remarkable how much the key people liaising with Ukraine for the US, didn't know.
Is this for real?
Why are you just showing Dems?
Uh. Did you not see what channel this is?
@@gmeister03 Oh Yeah lol
win or lose all this calls tax payers millions and millions of dollars why??? all these people investigating and the senators asking questions aren't they all ready paid a salary from tax payer dollars? so why do we have to pay more for them to do their jobs that they are all ready paid to do?
The comity herein these proceedings has all the underpinnings of agency, serving an administrative function, with that come the agency's duty to promulgate rules, if the rules exist only in the head and mind of the leading member and seem to constantly change then these proceedings are unconstitutional. There needs to be an emergency petition to the US Supreme court to determine this agency action in that all must be stricken and started anew with established rules......
Why is his eyes so dam big 🤣👁👁
It’s a common trait of leftists continuously lying. Little Adam schitt, aoc, Pocahontas...all of them have the bug eyes

lol
And I suppose Dump was insulted. Who hasn’t Dump talked bad about
The clash wasn't over facts not in evidence. The clash was over what rules the hearing is supposed to be operating under. Because Schiff outlined a very specific set of rules for these hearings that ignore all standard house rules and all normal rules of evidence. Yet in the middle of questioning he's suddenly interrupting testimony to direct a witness not to answer or at the very least be cautious about what answers to give to certain questions that may be considered improper questions under normal rules of evidence. You don't get to very intentionally suspend all normal rules of evidence to allow all the testimony you want as part of the record and then assert rules of evidence as justification for suggesting a witness shouldn't offer certain testimony.
Just to show you how people can turn on you..PS Adam look scared
trump said to contact his personal attorney Giuliani NOT Durham. that is not official channels.
Social media posts are now facts? I can't....
Castor talks about Manafort resigning, and then segways into some diatribe how that means the Ukrainians were out to get Trump..... ???? How? When there was a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT Ukraine government??? Led by a competent businessman, not some actor?
Schiff is ridiculous.
"Chairman" Schitt has lost control of this parody Kangaroo Kourt and we're all better off for it. This is hilarious!
Expelled him for making up crap
#walkaway
How about you guys ask questions about the facts of the events and not chase a rabbit down a freaking hole
They don’t know Trumps concerns about Ukraine but the seem to think they know what’s in his brain about quid quo pro
Schiff is so good... at taking it in both ends...at the same time. Hence the bug eyes.
Someone told me they heard this guy is a flat out liar....They should put me on the stand to testify to this!
Somebody told me that he overheard somebody say Adam Schitt sucks his own balls, while directing traffic with his eyes.
@@malancronje6805 This is something that we should at least investigate.
I like the point of order question but is it true Republicans have to have Schiff approve Republicans choice for witness list? If this is true can we make a point of order that if Republican witnesses are screened and deneyied by Schiff how is this not a kangaroo court? ( ignoring standards of law or justice).
Just remember nobody is talking about the fact that the ambassador was chosen by Obama.... so I hope this is the actual last time I say this but THANKS OBAMA!
Ambassador Taylor first served under Reagan
He came out of retirement and was asked to come back by Secretary of state Mike Pompeo
Just stating the facts.
Woow KGB Comeback for Sure
Funny how mr. Taylor has no problem reaching conclusions and interpreting presidential intentions without having first-hand knowledge on so many issues raised by the Democrats but as soon as the Republican start asking questions about what he believed the president's intentions were he suddenly is unable to provide his opinion
shiff is like one of those robot vacuums that go around banging into everything.

where's his tweets? i know it's coming..lol
@me no He didn't say the tweet will show up here.
Guys, Who really care about impeachment? We need to talk about automation and job losses. No matter who gets into wh, one must solve the problem automation destroys jobs, 80m in 16 years, according to an article by Merrill Lynch. Automation destroys jobs and towns. What to do? No jobs, no family, then addiction and depression...scary
automation will lead to a universal basic income
I consider myself a cross party voter. I vote on the candidates based on their policies not their political party alliance. All I can say is that, we're already pretty divided as a country and impeaching a sitting president can not be the answer. I would rather see him voted out or re-elected by the people than this circus. 2020 is around the corner, instead of working on important issues like health care and drug prices, homelessness, education, jobs and infrastructure.....I'm watching this. Really? #bothsidesuck
Someone needs to give Shitff a 3rd eye !!!
Republican strategy: ignore the facts of illegal bribery while throwing as much mud on the wall to confuse the issue as possible.

Wow Schiff just threatin
7:20 Is it appropriate for President Trump to address with President Zelensky and asked him to see his buddy Giuliani and "cooperate". Ambassador: I beg your pardon?!?!?! LOL!
@SuperEmitt sad try, my friend. Glad that you admit quid pro quo but it was illegal because he was using the Executive powers to extort Z for personal and political gains. If you're the president you shouldn't ask for finding/creating dirt on your rivals. But don't take my word, see by yourself. Lets suppose President Obama asked Z for dirt on Trump and Trump jr., would you be fine with that?
@SuperEmitt My friend, you still don't see it. You assume Trump is righteous and the Dems, evildoers, but you have no basement for that. That's why I asked you, would you be fine if Obama was president and we just knew that he asked Z for dirt on Trump and Trump jr?
Trump pressed hard Z to say they were investigating the Bidens, that's not the mark of an honest man, on the contrary, he wanted to sink Biden before 2020. A very dishonest move and you would be able to see it, if the President were a Democrat. You have a large bias, that's all. Take care
After congress approved and released the aid,show me the document that said Trump/Giuliani .....needed to investigate the gov.of Ukraine.....I guess not.
Not much in this video of any import
