About an hour into the phony impeachment hearings and Mark Levin already has a few thoughts on them…
1. We are a full hour into this idiotic hearing, and not a single word relating to anything relevant to impeachment. In fact, these two witnesses arrogantly tell us about their careers in the bureaucracy, their private lives, their history lessons & their opinions about policy.

2. They clear despise Rudy Giuliani, mostly because he was not working through the State Department, much like many presidential confidants throughout our history.

3. Obviously, they are also very close to the former ambassador to Ukraine, an Obama holdover, and don't like the way she was ousted. What does any of this have to do with impeachment or an impeachment hearing.

4. What these two witnesses don't care to understand is that the president sets foreign policy. There is no "irregular" channel.

AND…
1. "Witness" Taylor might be astonished that Trump temporarily held up funds to Ukraine, concerned about past corruptions there, which he says was a change from "long-standing US policy" — although Obama must not have known of it.

2. My point is that Trump has acted throughout the world in ways the State Department would not approve — North Korea, where Trump broke with the past; Syria, where Trump broke with policies of the last decade
— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 13, 2019
3. Israel, where the president has supported Israel in ways the State Department has long opposed; Cuba, where the president reversed Obama policy; etc.

Lastly, Mark Meadows would have you remember something as you watch this hearing unfold…
Reminder: the Chairman was caught misleading a reporter about communication with the whistleblower, barely four weeks ago https://t.co/qR6grFvXl5

Folks, as you listen to Mr. Taylor and Mr. Kent today, remember: neither of these witnesses have any serious firsthand knowledge of the key events.
Taylor didn't even speak to @realDonaldTrump during any of this. Kent admitted he had no firsthand info of any order from POTUS.

UPDATE: Mark Levin just released a few more tweets:
1. Neither of these witnesses ever had a direct conversation with the president about Ukraine, but they're more than happy to testify to what others supposedly thought, what others supposedly said, their policy preferences, the president's "irregular" channel, etc.

2. This might be ok for a Brookings Institute seminar, but is an abuse of process by the House Democrats and Schiff to use this pathetic and monotonous process to try to take out the president. I have never seen anything so preposterous.
— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 13, 2019
3. And this staged idiocy is the best the Democrats can do, even though it occurs AFTER the Democrats have been plotting for two months and have controlled the entire process.
