Romney, along with Republican Maine Sen. Susan Collins, voted last week to allow for additional witnesses to testify at the impeachment trial. The measure ended up failing 49-51 after other moderate Republicans joined the rest of the party in voting no.
As Romney has said, he wants to hear from Ambassador Bolton, and he will vote in favor of the motion today to consider witnesses, Johnson tweeted.
But he stunned everyone as he becomes the only Republican to vote to convict President Donald Trump in the Democrat-led impeachment trial.
But was that the only reason for his decision?
A new financial report detailing where Romney has been getting his special-interest dollars may reveal why he voted against the president.
According to OpenSecrets.org, Romney has received $17,500 from Soros Fund Management, an operation founded by left-wing billionaire George Soros.
On the list of all-time total donations, Romney makes it into the top 20 list of politicians who have received money from Soros Fund Management.
He is the only Republican on the list others who have received money from Soros are former President Barack Obama, Sen. Chuck Schumer, former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, and others.
This is not a big surprise but God knows how much money he took that we dont have information for.
Back in 2012, George Soros said he saw little difference between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.
A few days later Gingrich spokesman R.C. Hammond said in a statement: How can a candidate like Obama defeat Obama in November?
We cant afford two George Soros-approved candidates this fall. We need a candidate who will fight for hardworking taxpayers, the narrator says. We need a candidate who left-wing billionaires like George Soros fear, because they will fundamentally change Washington.
It seems that Republicans had enough from Mitt Romney. First, he was notified by a tweet from Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) chair Matt Schlapp that he was not invited to the annual conference after being one of two Republicans in the Senate to vote to call additional witnesses in the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump.
The extreme conservative and Junior Senator from the great state of Utah, @SenatorRomney is formally NOT invited to #CPAC2020, Schlapp tweeted.
A Utah lawmaker has filed a bill to allow Utahns to recall an elected United States senator.
Deseret News reported:
The lawmaker, Rep. Tim Quinn, R-Heber City, told the Deseret News in an interview Wednesday shortly after the bill was made public that its not meant to target any specific sitting Utah senator but it comes amid heightened national attention on Sen. Mitt Romney, who has been among the few Republican senators publicly critical of President Donald Trump.
Romney in recent days has ignited simmering controversy over whether to bring additional witnesses and documents into the impeachment trial against Trump. Yet Quinn said his bill isnt aimed at Romney or any specific senator though he acknowledged his bill comes at a time that people will likely construe it that way.
I know thats whats going to be the narrative, Quinn said. If it were, then it might make sense to have a sunset on it. That would not be the case.
Please share this article wherever you can. It is the only way we can work around their censorship and ensure people receive news about issues that Democrats and the mainstream media suppress.
I want to know why Soros is still a United States Citizen and is still breathing.
Yeah, and the $17k is Romneys 30 pieces of silver.
IIRC Soros has a warrant issued for him from Russia on a number of charges. He should be arrested and given to them for trial and disposition.
$17,500 is chump change in this context and not enough to commit your name to infamy. I think it was a hell of a lot more and it wasn’t just money.
Send Soros back to Hungary. They want to talk to him.
p
Mittens is only in the top 20? I guess his knob polishing skills are slipping since McStain croaked. LOL
If, in any future election the result is 50 Republicans and 50 RATS sitting in the Senate, Mittens will switch parties giving the finger to American voters with a big smile on his face.
Romulans were the bad guys.
I wonder the same. I mean, don't the good guys have an answer to Arkancide?
But he [Romney] stunned everyone as he becomes the only Republican to vote to convict President Donald Trump...
Romney stunned no one.
Romney is such a joke. Looking back, I really thought Obama was a complete disaster but Romney would have done the same things minus the racial strife. Republicans would have become the socialist party and things would be much worse.
I guess not.
Maybe we need to put tthe word out to the Clinton Crime Family that Soros is ratting them out to AG Barr.
