Innocent people don’t block witnesses. Innocent people don’t block evidence. Full stop.

President Donald Trump is guilty, and he knows it. His every action screams it, in complete refutation of any words he says to the contrary.

I suspect that Sens. Jerry Moran and Pat Roberts know he’s guilty, too. It’s not a question of fact at this point. The only question is whether the truth of his guilt comes out now, in the impeachment trial, or some time in the future with the inevitable next whistleblower, book deal or WikiLeaks dump.

Moran and Roberts are not idiots. They have to know it’s coming. The only question is whether they want to do their duty or be complicit in a cover-up.

Note from KBJ: Please post your tax return on the Internet, Michael. What? You refuse? I thought innocent people didn't block evidence. Michael Wisebaker is guilty and he knows it.

No matter how many witnesses you give the Democrats, no matter how much information is given, like the quickly produced Transcripts, it will NEVER be enough for them. They will always scream UNFAIR. The Impeachment Hoax is just another political CON JOB!

To the editor:

I have found very little with which to agree in former national security advisor John Bolton’s assessment of world events and his recommendations for U.S. foreign policy. Yet I always felt he was proceeding based on strongly held beliefs about what was best for the country rather than personal gain. (“The Senate has to hear from John Bolton before voting on Trump’s impeachment,” editorial, Jan. 28)

So I appeal to his patriotism to stand up and be heard.

Bolton should not wait for a subpoena. Instead, he should give a news conference with a complete summary about what he knows. The public needs firsthand information about the Ukrainian “drug deal” as well as the president’s cozy relationships with strongmen.

Bolton would still sell many books, plus he would have the respect and gratitude of the American people.

Note from KBJ: Let me get this straight, Joel. You hated John Bolton until he turned on President Trump, whom you really hate. Very principled of you. Question: Will you resume hating Bolton if he ends up supporting President Trump? Be careful what you ask for!

It’s amazing what I’ve done, the most of any President in the first three years (by far), considering that for three years I’ve been under phony political investigations and the Impeachment Hoax! KEEP AMERICA GREAT!
