Chuck Schumer: John Bolton Testimony Goes To 'Heart Of The Charges Against The President' | MSNBC
Bolton the man calling Mulvaney and Ghouli Rudi as ” Cooking Drugs ” Might have something to Say!
@UCdxj50CGw5WC1Iq9AYLAOTw that might hold water, if people hadn’t known Trump is a con man since the 80’s.
Lol
“Bolton advocated for another U.S. invasion of Iraq, following the first Gulf War, as far back as the 1990s, when he called on President Clinton to oust Saddam Hussein. Later, as under secretary of state for arms control, during President George W. Bush’s first term in office, he told the BBC the U.S. was “confident that Saddam Hussein has hidden weapons of mass destruction and production facilities in Iraq.” The evidence used to go to war in 2003 might have long been deemed mistaken, and some of the war’s most ardent supporters might have expressed second thoughts since then given the immense cost of human life and the destabilization of the region, but Bolton has maintained that deposing Saddam was worth the effort—even if the decisions made after the invasion weren’t always right.”

“whatever drug deal . . . are cooking up” That means they are “cooking up” a drug deal, as in working to create a drug deal, not “cooking drugs”.

@Rose Johnson-Tsosie President Obama had a surprisingly good singing voice. I miss the humanness of a president that Obama had. I’m so tired of this phoney and his entourage of yes men.

@Annnora C NOTHING AND SOMEONE ELSE IS ALWAYS TO BLAME!
Sure. And despite Democrats’ insistence that even looking into Burisma and the Bidens was “baseless”—indeed, impeachable—the facts say otherwise. Here’s just a partial list of the people and organizations who found enough basis to look into it: the Obama State Department, The New York Times, The Washington Post, ABC’s White House reporter, the United Kingdom’s Serious Fraud Office, Hunter Biden’s business partner Chris Heinz, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State George Kent, and many more.
The bottom line is that a President has both the right and the responsibility to protect American taxpayers from foreign corruption, including in Ukraine. If the American people disagree with that policy decision, they have every right to say so—at the ballot box.
Democrats want to take that right away from you. They’re afraid of what you might say.
FACT CHECK: Even ABC News thought there was a basis to look into this
🇺🇸 AND It Gets better: guess who voted against authorizing the assistance for Ukraine? House Democrats’ own impeachment managers. Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) voted no on the FY2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which included $300 million for Ukraine. Nadler joined Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) in voting against the FY2019 NDAA, as well, with its $250 million for Ukraine.
@Donnie Draftdodger The marxist dictators on the left are finished and the smear Gestapo SS tactics failed badly just for Trump to be acquitted and reelected
There goes Trump lawyers defense going up in flame in the impeachment trial that no one in the White House witness or heard Trump giving orders to withhold Ukraine funds until they do an investigation on the Bidens.
Pompeo is sweating more than usual today.
Nunes…!
Well his obesity,like Trumps…clogged his arteries.
He is a lying coward just like all of the repukklikans senators.
I’m not usually a vindictive person, but I would love to see Pompeo drop dead from a heart attack !! HAHAHHAA !!!!! LMFAO !!!
If the GOP had their way we’d be litigating this in the courts for the next 20 years!
Yup, they will file an infinite number of appeals until they get the verdict they want. I could even see them questioning the verdict of the Supreme Court on the grounds that Article 2 powers let him do whatever he wants and they have no authority.
@Real Talk76 Are you hearing this?, they are slating Obama as some sort of justification for Trump, Obama wasnt impeached.
@Andy Trump will never get tired of beating that drum. He idolizes Obama. Nothing surprises me with this administration. They spent half the day smearing Hunter Biden, so it’s all distraction and sideshow.
The subpoenas will remain under audit forever.
if Bolton’s ‘ in the room ‘ description of the conversation does not sway GOP senators to call for him as a witness, nothing will. And that makes 51 GOP senators just as corrupt & complicit Trump & the WH…
It is time a special prosecutor was appointed by the congress, to go after all the people responsible for this cover up.
@J MacDonald No cover up at all just the marxist dictators on the left are failing badly for Marxism with Gestapo SS tactics
Todd B, I totally agree with you 👍👍👍
I agree Todd B. Even though he was a decent Vice President, he is not above the law. I say “lock him up” Biden has always acted a bit goofy, kind of nerdy, likable but nerdy.

No Witnesses, No Documents isn’t a FAIR TRIAL!!!!! #COVERUPINFULLEFFECT
The senate is debating new witness, not all. The house witness testimony and witnesses are there.
A cover-up in broad daylight for all to see.
Documents and witnesses! It is an unfair trial!
Now, now…we don’t want to offend the Republicans delicate sensitivities by implying that they aren’t impartial and the President isn’t vindictive. Even though he’s smearing Bolton, the same way he smears everyone who leaves his administration or contradicts his agenda.
@Real Talk76 To be fair to government officials, usually referred to as an administration, Trump doesn’t have an administration. It is a regime. A regime of well organized sycophants filled with fear of the truth.
The book of revelations
Scary stuff
Vote blue because the Republicans are Crowds.
This is why Mitch and Republicans don’t want him to testify, but all I know is that Trump doesn’t know Bolton. He never met the guy…😂😂😂🤧
He doesn’t know Bolton more than anyone could ever not know Bolton. Believe him.
He might have a picture with him, but he’s in THOUSANDS of pictures with people. More than you would know!
They met each countless of times there are many photographs of them together
😅😅😅
Republicans can’t keep their lies straight.
No suprise there. What a web you weave when you choose to deceive.
Save Greenland you mean truth is moron. Trump is definitely guilty hopefully Bolton will put the icing on the cake. Stupid
Chief Justice doesn’t have any balls as if we didn’t know already. He should’ve done something about Trumps threats to the prosecution team.
@Darrin Fry Which includes witnesses.
@brwneyesaz John Bolton should be tried for sedition.
Threats?
Every Senator and their dogs are aware that Trump is Guilty, they will sell their souls to stay in power.
Just vote this man out in 2020 get up off your butts that day and vote for this great country
david white
Trump 2024 🥳🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸

@North Guy H I G H T R E A S O N. YOU JUST SAID IT FOOL
Just read the manuscript out loud now. We will still buy the book for historical reasons!
Exactly!!
i’ll actually buy the book IF its read into the record, and I had no intentions of ever buying it, to begin with
Old news. Real Americans already knew Trump blackmailed Ukrainian.
This is a text book example of corruption and a cover up.
Smoking artillery. The truth shall set you free.
Witnesses gop !
I wish this mattered but we have a Republican coup against democracy; they want to turn our country into a dictatorship for personal gain.
@Save Greenland LoL. It won’t be a leftist rifle. The right are the ones saying they’ll cause a civil war if they don’t get their way. If a leftist is pointing anything at the back of my head it will be a healing crystal while waving a dream catcher and chanting nonsense to their “spirit animal.” Not too worried about that, the right-wing gun however…
@Aubergine Bellen That’s funny. I appreciate a clever response. But some of those S. Calif. Disney gangs are also a militia.
@josh grant K Plinkster
@Aubergine Bellen only coup was in the dictator Schiff bunker with Gestapo SS tactics on hear say assumptions presumptions opinions and what someone thinks and Catholic Nancy Pelosi is confused and a failure for lessening to the marxist dictator moron AOC partisan as that moron has no commonsense and someone should tell that moron there is no fix for stupid and to stop pimping children for propaganda and her agenda and brainwashing bots
Prepare for witnesses, no other option now. It’s witnesses or cover up.
We need ALL witnesses that are RELEVANT!! So sick of hearing all the desperate ramblings about the Biden’s and Obama today. America deserves to hear and see all the FACTS!
