Just further evidence that Trump is being impeached for conducting foreign policy.
thanks.
that’s a keeper.
These e-mails undercut the entire impeachment inquiry. They show that Trump was concerned about corruption, NOT about getting some public pronouncement about Biden.
They also show that Bolton did NOT resign because of some “quid-pro-quo”, but that he was upset about the legal arguments about cancelling the aid altogether.
The “concerns” in the e-mails are all about trying to find a legal basis for withholding the aid past the september 30th deadline. Some argued that there was legal support for cancelling the aid, and others argued that the president did not have the authority to do so.
This is like the argument over whether the president could use emergency declarations to fund the wall — which also wasn’t about some personal thing, but was a legitimate discussion of whether the laws on the books allowed the transfer of money.
And yes — the house should have subpoena’d these e-mails; a newspaper was able to get them from FOIA, so clearly if the house had done due diligence they could have had them.
They didn’t WANT them because it became clear to the house that every fact was going to go against their assertions. They needed to shut down fact-finding, both to leave their cloud of witnesses who witnessed nothing from being refuted by the ones actually making decisions, and also so they could pretend that obstruction of democrats opposition research was an impeachable offense.
Trump had multiple reasons to delay aid, including trying to get other countries to do more to help Ukraine. Whether any potential political benefit to himself was one of his reasons, only he can know for sure, but Adam Schiff & Co. have created a narrative that Trump's desire to hurt a political rival was the only reason and that it is such an awful offense that it warrants removing him from office. All that is, is speculation on Schiff's part.
Trump's mention of Biden in the phone call was clearly a reaction to seeing the clip of Biden bragging about getting the prosecutor in Ukraine fired...a prima facie case of corruption on Biden's part clearly tied to the question of corruption in Ukraine.
Trump beat Hillary, a more formidable candidate than Biden could possibly be. The abundant evidence of corruption by Hillary did little to damage her chances and she almost won. So why would Trump think that "digging up dirt" on Biden in connection with a country most Americans cared nothing about would have much impact in 2020...when it was far from certain Biden would be the nominee?
SCHUMER’S FIRST DROP ..... check out his speech on the Senate floor today.

THAT is one hell of a sentence.
God bless you.
I went to that link to read about what justsecurity.org is, and all the people on the advisory board appear to be extreme leftists.
Schumer hogged the limelight in the investigation of the WACO massacre, when he was in the House, as the one Representative seeking to justify burning women & children alive. He is a committed enemy of American values, and has long been such. A despicable man.
Yes....... if you read the article you’ll see who the people are....... people trying to kick Trump from office!!!
SCHUMER I was disappointed to hear yesterday that Leader McConnell declared that he would be not be an impartial juror when it comes to the serious charges against President Trump, Chuck Schumer said in a recent Senate speech. He said it proudly. What kind of example does that set to the country that is looking for fairness and impartiality?
But in 1999, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer went on Larry King Live and said the exact opposite of everything he is saying now. Schumer defended the right of every Senator to have a pre-opinion and explained that the Senate is not a jury box because the Senate is susceptible to the whims of politics and Senators can be called and lobbied by citizens.
Nanzis hemming and hawing is stupid.....insisting she wants to be assured of a fair trial.
Doesnt even know the constitutional language guaranteeing a fair trial is given to the accused......NOT the accuser.
Shell drag it out as long as possible. All the dems have is impeachment-to give the r/f a thrill.......to raise a little money.
Some say McConnell should simply dismiss due to lack of actual charges......
Forget dismissal for lack of evidence. Senate actions must humiliate DemocRATs.
Nothing short of a Democrat annihilation will do.
Americans must be made witness to:
<><> Democrats violent hatred for Trump
<><> Democrats raging hatred for an entire class of Americans
<><> impeachment as revenge (not justice)
<><> vengeful Democrats punishing Trump voters
<><> Democrats banking their future on the chaos of impeachment
<><> the outrageous Third World MO used to structure impeachment.
Every Senate action should show Americans and the world The True Impact of the Piglos Democrats Impeachment Con Game.
They are going to run on the senate is blocking impeachment, so impeachment becomes about the senate vote as well as presidential..
And the despicable enemy of the Republic, the media fifth column, will push the lies to the limit as truth, manipulating voters who haven’t time tp expose the lying. Thank God for men like Dan Bongino who expose the lies, leaving it up to us to use his work to inform our neighbors.
We don’t care Schumer...
Im sure the President must be quaking in his boots right now.
Questions voters want answered:
<><> "how come you couldnt get rid of Trump w/ all that evidence?"
<><> "how much did it cost?"
Chuck has powers beyond mortal man.
true, but sadly most of the media is rabid, ...folks democrats will not even listen to our side,,it’s just trash, I hope something happens more than what we have seen on Fisa,etc,,It’s taking too long..
So what,Schmuck?
