    Law does NOT say they have to be dispersed immediately, says they have to be dispersed “by the end of the fiscal year. They were so this GAO announcements is pure partisan drivel without a shred of fact to it.

    An Obama appointee made this decision. The OMB says they are wrong. Says delays in disbursements are normal in these situation.

    Where in the Congressional Budget is there a date set to disperse funds to the Ukraine?


    Law is “end of the fiscal year” not “immediately”

    The agency offered an opinion. It does not have the force of law and is based on a premise shown to be false numerous times. Reading the mind of President Trump is certainly not within their purview. Nothing illegal was done in regards to funds to Ukraine. Spin it all they like their opinion does not amount to a hill of shit in real life application.

    Even then, as of mid-December 2019, Ukraine still had not received the entire amount approved.

    "Ukraine still has not received $20.2 million in U.S. military aid, even as House Democrats move forward with articles of impeachment against President Trump that are focused on withheld security assistance to Kyiv.

    "The Los Angeles Times reported Thursday, citing Pentagon and Senate aides, that a portion of the Defense Department's $250 million share of $391 million in overall assistance remains in U.S. accounts."

    Obama ran guns to drug cartels and nobody went after him, so i'm chalking this up to political bias, therefore bullshit
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    Obama isn't president, and that conspiracy theory about drug cartels is where your bullshit can be found.

    That's Bush you're thinking of. Operation Wide Receiver. Sound familiar?

    Not correct. the bill had a sunset clause. If it was not given to Ukraine, it would have gone back to the House to be ended or reappropriated. Trump let go 2 days from the last date. Trump did break that law a pile of others.

    More hoax. I've never seen so much hoax before in my life. Mountains of hoax evidence and hoax witnesses. None of it exists, this finding isn't real.

    My understanding is that Congress mandated the Whitehouse to vet foreign aid packages before releasing the money. That is what they were doing.


    Your understanding is dead wrong. You know that the ONLY reason the funds were released was because trump got caught by the whistleblower.

    right, which is why documents were given executive privilege to keep them from a congressional investigation........................

    admit that you're a partisan hack full of shit that would cover up a democrat eating babies........
