WestwallThe impeachment managers withdrew that part of the evidence because it really wasn't very important, and neither is Mike Lee. The remaining evidence is enough to convict.Isn't fabricating evidence a crime? Why aren't these Dems facing charges?

Utah’s Mike Lee says trial statements about him were ‘contrary to fact,’ gets record revised
Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, succeeded Wednesday in having a Democrat’s statements about him withdrawn from the record during the second day of former President Trump’s Senate impeachment trial.www.foxnews.com
Tuberville has confirmed the story. And it’s been referred to the ethics committee.
Managers say acquittal could embolden pro-Trump extremists
Link to ethics committee tweet:
Trump accidentally phoned Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) as he sought to get in touch with Tuberville and request that the Alabama senator continue objecting to the election results in order to buy time. Lee, according to reports in Utah’s Deseret News, the Salt Lake Tribune and CNN, passed his phone to the newly-elected lawmaker for the brief call. Lee on Wednesday night objected on the Senate floor to how his role in the call was portrayed.
They were FORCED to withdraw it because it was a lie.
Stop lying, you're not good at it!
From he op Fox news article in first post:
Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., who is presiding over the trial, said that Lee's request was not consistent with the Senate rules. But Lee appealed, requesting a roll call vote on his appeal. This prompted confusion in the chamber on what exactly the Senate was voting on before Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., sent the Senate into a quorum call "while we work this out."
Lee later withdrew his request for a roll call vote and Schumer withdrew his quorum call.
Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., the lead impeachment manager, then said that "Ciciline correctly and accurately quoted a newspaper account which the distinguished senator has taken objection to. So we're happy to withdraw it on the grounds that it is not true and we are going to withdraw it this evening without any prejudice to the ability to resubmit if possible and then we could debate it if we need it."
They admitted they withdrew it because it wasn't true. IN your own quote. Quick question retard? Was it withdrawn or not?
Lee withdrew his request for a vote and Leahy withdrew the statement, reserving the right to resubmit the statement at a later date.
