    I know and I agree. Ignorance of the law has never been a defense to anything.

    300 former national security officials co-sign letter supporting impeachment investigation, saying it is necessary.



    It is sad that some here will easily dismiss 300 career professionals from multiple former administrations as group think "deep state" people and not citizens who simply love their country and want democracy to function properly.

    Please set that letter over there next to the one signed by over 400 former federal prosecutors saying the Mueller Report shows the nexus for obstruction of justice. No, no, over there in the corner -- under that pile of papers with the rotting apple core on top? You can see the corner of the envelope peeking out.

    His ad is a bunch of already debunked BS? That sounds about par for the course with Trump.

    WHATABOUTISM 101!!!!

    Ah, the propaganda of the STUPID - lol.

    None of that compares with asking a foreign entity to help you get dirt on a political opponent.

    1. TRUMP BROKE THE LAw

    2. BIDEN didn't.

    No amount of NAZI LIKE FAKE ASSED PROPAGANDA will fool the majority of smart Americans......

    The ole Victim card......to cover up his discretion - only the ignorant believe that crap.

    So recapping, the "whistleblower" only had second hand knowledge, and there was no quid pro quo.

    Just another left-wing hoax. The Russia idea went nowhere, and now we have the media hyping up this nothing burger.

    You do realize they are straight up lying in the first part of this video don't you?

    The Obama Admin wanted the former prosecutor fired because he was NOT investigating companies like the natural gas company in question that Hunter Biden was on the board for.

    This video is clearly trying to tell its low information viewers that Biden... not the Obama Admin... wanted to fire the prosecutor because he WAS INVESTIGATING the natural gas company. Sort of like how Trump tried to fire Mueller who was investigating him for conspiracy & obstruction.

    That's just not true on its face. You either know that, and are just trying to spread conspiracy theory, or you are incredibly gullible & ignorant.

    ..........

    All that being said... sure... if there is any there there, Bill Barr should just investigation & bring an indictment on Joe & Hunter Biden. Put Joe Biden on trial during the 2020 presidential campaign. I'm sure that'll go over well.

    Bill Barr has the power to do that.... but instead Trump went outside the justice department & extorted a foreign power in order to seek political help against a rival which is criminal and certainly impeachable.


    You can lie, and argue about Joe Biden all you want. It changes NOTHING from the fact that Donald Trump will be impeached for very good reason, and you simply are highly unpatriotic if you are okay with Trumps actions.

    Your recap is inaccurate. There could well have been quid pro quo. Even if there wasn't, there doesn't have to be.

    Since Trump's own words were admitting he broke the law, it doesn't matter whether the whistleblower's knowledge was hearsay. We know the information is accurate based on Trump's own comments about the person who leaked it to the whistleblower.

    Meanwhile, william "the fixer" barr is hiding out on "official business" in Italy... just like Michael Corleone was on "official business" in Italy in The Godfather.
