I have citation. You have arm-chair theory.
You have absolutely nothing that comes out and says "here is the smoking gun" also you keep referring to different events like they cooperate each other
Moving the goal post to "smoking gun".
We said there is evidence, and the testimonies factually count as evidence (among other things). We are correct.
It's okay to admit you lost that round. Lets move on,

Let´s take a look at the complaint
I was not a direct witness to most of the events described. However, I found my colleagues' accounts of these events to be credible because, in almost all cases, multiple officials recounted fact patterns that were consistent with one another.
So here he "feels" something and states that other peoples opinions are correct because he feels it, In a court if he ever took the stand he would have to be entered as an expert and prove that he is an expert if this testimony would ever be allowed.
The 6 sworn testimonies, text messages, transcripts, and videos of guys like Mick which corroborate the report would be allowed. The report itself would be referenced.
There is nothing so far that refutes any portion of the report. Only the opposite.
The ICIG found it credible for good reason. His letters are superior citation than your opinions. I will post them:

Let´s take another bit
Multiple White House officials with direct knowledge of the call informed me that, after an initial exchange of pleasantries, the President used the remainder of the call to advance his personal interests. Namely, he sought to pressure the Ukrainian leader to take actions to help the President's 2020 reelection bid. According to the White House officials who had direct knowledge of the call, the President pressured Mr. Zelenskyy to, inter alia:
Here we again have an opinion since nothing in the call transcript actually confirms their assessment. Not to mention Zelenskyy was not as we know aware of the aid being withheld.
Multiple sworn testimonies corroborate those assessments. As do text messages, transcripts, and on video admittance.
Again, the ICIG (who is > you) made it clear the WB Report was credible. And we now know why.

We agree there is evidence. What we won't agree on is how compelling it is. IMO it is incredibly strong, as it only corroborates the WB Report and none of it refutes it. People have been convicted with less, but those weren't exactly Impeachments.
As for the WB Report itself, The ICIG > Jacanuk. It deemed is credible until you show otherwise. I would like to know why you think the ICIG is wrong and you HAVE to provide equally as credible citation/sourcing.

why do you think Pelosi is not going to call a vote? if everything, as you say, was so clear? no one would be able to dispute it right? meaning a unanimous senate would vote "removal" right.
And don´t answer with "They are waiting for more evidence", because that is irrelevant when you claim that they already have enough.
Because they have quite a bit more testimonies lined up. You need all you can get when it comes to impeachment which is also a lot about public opinion. With a GOP Senate they're gonna have to stack the shit out of evidence to make them look really really to the public bad when they vote to not remove.
Are you new to this whole thing?
