    1. Justice Boofer extortion is a better description. Bribery suggests both parties are willing participants- Ukraine was not.

  1. I was suppose to give you money.
    But I didn’t, until someone called the cops?
    Yet, you didn’t know I withheld the money, until the cops arrived?
    And one had nothing to do with the other? W…T…F…!!!

    1. ernstbtmn false equivalency. I told you, you won’t get the money (that isn’t mine to hold onto) or even a chance to talk to me about it, until you do as told (a personal favor nonetheless) – that’s the context.

      Or, in other words – let’s see how ambitious you are… What will you give me in order for me not to abuse the power of my office? Pay me or things won’t happen.

  2. I think Michael Moore has some incredible ESP… Fahrenheit 11/9… Look at the date of “Money Flowed”

    1. P J more importantly, it is explicitly mentioned in the Constitution as impeachable offense -bribery can be clearly defined, whereas “high crimes and misdemeanors” can be widely interpreted.

  3. Wait, so all the Republicans are going to storm out of the meeting holding their fingers in their ears and yelling I’M NOT LISTENING, I’M NOT LISTENING, I’M NOT LISTENING? Great strategy, if you were a rodeo clown in a circus…wait, isn’t that what they are?

  4. This isn’t about a phone call. It’s about a conspiracy managed by Paul Manafort since forever. Lev has plenty to say about this deal. The Roger Stone trial will bleed over into this. We’ve got a pile of people talking about how this admin twisted U.S. policy in order to buy votes.

  5. Wow … just wow. Let me see house republicans .. ah the likes devil nunes, jimie boy… 2 of the most and best and brighest of gop, the first one fabricating evidence and than holding press conference he found it …. than he start sueing people over a cow, jimmie here no evil see no evil abuse of children.. i never knew something went on.. and these 2 clowns are now stating that bribery is not bribery… because they were not there ?
