President Donald Trump gave an atta-boy to Republican Rep. Francis Rooney last year on the congressman’s home turf in swing state Florida.
“I love it when he defends me,” the president said then. He might feel differently now.
The second-term Republican said publicly Friday what others in his party are not, namely that acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney acknowledged a quid pro quo was at work when Trump held up U.S. aid to Ukraine in exchange for Kyiv’s investigation of Democrats and the 2016 elections. Mulvaney later claimed his comments had been misconstrued, but Rooney said he and other Republicans heard them clearly.

One more to primary
Politicians don’t know anything about running a country.
They make a false or misconstrued claim and then use it as fact and then send out the meme over and over to use it to change the overly weighted polls to make an excuse for getting the action they wanted in the the first place.
I wonder how many people realize what these people are doing. But I’m not sure it will stop them...they’re jut looking for an excuse - even if it’s based on lies.
The quid was yes aid to Ukraine the pro quo was corruption in Ukraine in the prior Ukraine administration including Ukraine officials doing political campaign favors for Hillary Clinton in 2016, and whether or not the curent Ukraine administration was getting on top of that correction. THAT is normal affarairs state. Not using the office for personal benefit. Trump did not DEMAND an outcome of Ukraines corruption investigations - unlike the Bidens - only that questions of corruption were going to be pursued.
He’s up on 12 months. Primary this punk and get him out of there. I’ll bet he’s one of the 24 who didn’t condemn Schiff.
Indeed, the cluelessness runs deep with this one. He is either corrupt or in an IQ battle with a fence post. Either way incapable of his position.
Nice job you’ve got there congressman, sure would be a shame if something happened to it.
Oh, and by the way, we ARE keeping track out here. If you vote against our President, well, you know what I mean...

Guy must be another Joe Scarborough (aka Fla. Rep. Joe Scarborough (R)). Remember him when he was in Congress?
Better brace yourselves cause with the help of the RINO’s Trump WILL
BE Impeached!!mark it! traitorous bastards.
Hey Francis contemplate Elijah Cummings!!
Thank you for posting this. I will have an opportunity next year to work to unseat him.
I would think all Americans would want to get the story on the abuse of power in 2016 by our government. I would withhold aid to anyone not sharing government corruption.
Thanks for the info. I will let him clearly know I’ll be contributing to whoever his opponent is next year.
I watched Mulvaney live. Basically, he said we NEVER give foreign aid without strings attached. Never have, never will. What’s the point? Here’s billions of dollars, we don’t care what you do with it. Yeah, right.
He was on Fox and said he is not running again.
Time to let him know how many of feel about his statement!
Oh, and by the way, we ARE keeping track out here.

Oh, we certainly are! The GOP thinks we’re still going to passively vote for their incumbents. They think wrong!
Thanks. I left a message at all three of congressman Rooney’s numbers. I suggest other creepers do the same.
