    Anyway, if they ever vote on this I will be amazed. Nancy will put it off until next year and then quietly state that we are in "election season" and they will "let the voters decide".

    They voted...
    Are you amazed?

    Trump tried to extort Zelensky to investigate Bidens. It was at election time and such an announcement would have helped Daffy. Our elections have been quite close for a long time. It may have put the crook over the line. That is why Putin made Trump president and Trump had to pay him back. It is possible for an outsider to sway our elections. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/25/trum...hone-call.html

    Do you ever read threads or should we just assume you are perpetually ignorant and incapable of actually participating in a conversation that isn't just you making a speech? Your post I quoted here is literally right under the post I quoted from me below. It was literally the last post in the thread, not difficult to find, not hidden...

    Trump was guilty of extorsion and most of his staff were in on it. https://www.americanprogress.org/art...ent-shakedown/ Vindman revealed it under oath and Trump fired him.
