Questioning in the ongoing impeachment hearing is about to move from Rep. Adam Schiff’s private bunker to the public, and the congressman has issued a list of questions that will guide what is considered relevant to impeachment hearings. In other words, no questions that don’t fit the template he’s drawn up.
BREAKING: SCHIFF details questions that witnesses must speak to in order to be considered relevant to impeachment hearings.

SCHIFF's questions are crucial because it shows how narrowly Democrats intend to keep the lens of their public impeachment hearings — it's an early attempt to prevent a free-for-all and keep the focus on Trump's actions.

We noticed that the name “Biden” doesn’t appear anywhere in those questions. Maybe it’s on the next page?
Rep. Mark Meadows already has objections.
Setting aside the absurdity of these restrictions—note that the Democrats won't even be able to stay within their own parameters.
The first two witnesses they're calling have never even talked to POTUS. They have zero firsthand knowledge. How can they speak to his motive? https://t.co/sptDSPqCYb

4th or 5th person hearsay and "impressions". We always convict on opinions in Schiff's warped worldview.
Also – please read the names of your intended witnesses on the House floor. We'd like to know if Schiff rejected.— Sandy 〽️ (@RightGlockMom) November 7, 2019
Hearsay is apparently only a thing in our courts.

They can speak to his motive because the NYT and MSNBC already told them what it is
— Walt Rines (@waltrines) November 7, 2019
These questions arise from the Democrat mind — they expect disloyalty in Trump because it's their norm, it's all they know.

So basically no cross examination is allowed. That seems fair ????

Objection! Leading the witnesses! Schiff you are out of order!

The very same 3 questions need to be asked of Schiff and every single Democrat hold over from the Obama administration.
There are a lot of corrupt cronies in the Lamestream media and the last administration right up to Obama himself and the American citizens know it!!

It doesn't have to be legal or logical, it just has to fit their narrative. It's a total Soviet style political hit job.

How is this Schiff show even legal @RepAdamSchiff
— Darren (@FakeDarrenOlson) November 7, 2019
Democrats have decided this is a hill worth dying on and Senate Republicans had better muster the fortitude to respond accordingly! A no-holds-barred defense of the country & historical precedent is required.
Civil order and the future of the republic are at stake.
