Is withholding aid falling within the President’s powers?

If so, then don’t even waste a barf on this nonsense.

No one cares anymore.

Not even me and I’ve been called a concern troll a million times because i’m a worrier and always have been.

Even I’M NOT Worried anymore.

This dies in the senate if it gets there.

Let the msm keep typing away and spinning their wheels.

We’ll just keep winning

Anything new here? No! And the aid suspension never went into effect.

A NYT nothingburger. No bombshell disclosure here.

The call wasn’t controversial. Read the transcript.

It wasn’t a party line vote. A few Dems voted with repubs.

Bias and straight up incorrect information in just the first few lines. And they wonder why they’re not trusted. And they wonder why they’re labeled an enemy of the people.

The executive branch is charged with executing funds. It would be pretty irresponsible for the CEO to just hand out funds willy-nilly without any assurance that those funds are being used as intended. The fact that Trump did not hand them out without conducting due diligence as to the appropriateness of doing so is not only not impeachable, it shows that he is responsible with funds.

So what? The aid was sent to the Ukrainians, and they didn't have to investigate Biden to get it. Those are the only facts that matter.

Of course, the lefties dont care about facts which is why we keep having to keep hearing this nonsense.

An earlier email that Mr. Duffey sent to the Pentagon comptroller suggested that Mr. Trump began asking aides about $250 million in military aid set aside for Ukraine after noticing a June 19 article about it in the Washington Examiner.

And that June 19th article mentioned nothing about the Bidens, or even Ukrainian corruption.

President Trump simply wasn’t keen on the idea of U.S. taxpayers pissing away hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to a foreign country in Europe.

Once the whistleblower exposed this, they went ahead and released the aid. What is the big deal about using an illegal quid pro quo in colluding with a foreign power to interfere in an election??

So what,it’s common,nothing to see here,it would be irresponsible for the President to send billions of dollars to a corrupt country without making sure it would not be responsible for the money.
Biden and the Democrats were using Ukraine as a cash machine

Well, as I have been saying for weeks, this is a coordinated, scripted plan worked out months ago by the President’s enemies, including some Senate Republicans. It is meant to generally follow the Watergate plot map, but of course they have much less to work with.

The two key elements are: First, imply and act as if it’s true that “quid pro quo” in foreign relations is a crime or a wrong act, when it is neither. Bait Trump with the lie and get him to deny the obvious.

Second, assemble “witnesses” who will testify to the quid pro quo, but do not let them appear before the House committees, which would allow weeks for their seemingly convincing but obviously absurd conclusions to be debunked. Instead, withhold their testimony until a Senate trial, where at first they will not be allowed to appear but after an impassioned floor fight and a constant media barrage, four “courageous” Republicans will “stand for the truth” and allow the testimony, (hopefully) triggering a landslide of weak Republicans, who want Trump gone anyway and who, pushed by their “donors” and craving the adulation of the media will remove the President in an afternoon of insanity.

That’s the plan. I hope it fails.

But I wish Trump had followed my advice and mounted a “You’re goddam right I ordered the Code Red” defense from the beginning. The enemies of our nation and our President are going to “prove” that he ordered a quid pro quo to get evidence against Biden, as it was his perfect right, indeed as it was his job to do, and his unfortunate denial may get him removed yet.

Today’s shameless lie by the NY Times

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/09/27/flashback_2018_joe_biden_brags_at_cfr_meeting_about_withholding_aid_to_ukraine_to_force_firing_of_prosecutor.html

FLASHBACK, 2018: Joe Biden Brags At CFR Meeting About Withholding Aid To Ukraine To Force Firing Of Prosecutor

Just because Biden is now a political opponent does not make him immune from investigation for possible wrong doing while VP. The Democrat party has reckless lied to the US People during this whole impeachment scam. The President has both a legal and a moral obligation to have this investigated. Their “Abuse of power” and “Obstruction of Congress” accusations are absurd lies with not a hint of shred of a clue of either legal, or moral, legitimacy.

Chris Wallace spent time this morning tying to pooh pooh the idea of looking at the Ukraine/democrat corruption. He is such a tool of deep state democrats.

The New York Times, reportedly, has a top team of ten reporters working on a bombshell expose on how MEAN PRESIDENT TRUMP IS TO CHINA.

They are assiduously, but fair-mindedly going to hold it until it’s closer to election.

Do any of us think that the powers that be at the Times have lost their minds in their quest to destroy.

Sondland’s call to the President was an attempt to entrap Trump with a wide open question in my opinion. Trump didn’t give them anything. Case closed.
