Don't forget: While Democrats obsess over impeachment, there are even MORE questions about the Bidens’ swamp corruption. Democrats don’t care about finding the truth!

I wish we can deploy this energy about another country in uniting legally against incompetence in Nigeria's governance space but strategizing how to vote them out for good.

you are talking to much, many of you are already block headed. but what you can't explain is why trump didn't investigate biden until he announced he was running? if he was serious about corruption, he didnt investigate those his corrupt cabinet members with scandals, many who have resigned? i thought nigerian politics was dense but trump's own is way stupid.
come you think american politics is like our area politics? you nor know say their congress get power almost equal to their president in enforcing their law?

What prompted the investigation was the release of a video where Joe Biden, then vice president, bragged about withholding I billion dollars of aid to the Ukraine except he Fired the prosecutor investigating Burisma where he son was working.

I think the video was released after announced he will run for office.

Yes, if his cabinet members committed crimes, they should be prosecurkted according to the law.

Also like I stated in my previous comment. If you look at the FISA abuse report, The FBI under the Obama administration secretly investigated the then the republican nominee, Trump on whether he colluded with Russia.

They solicited help from other countries like Austrialia, England, Italy etc..

They used a false dossier written by an ex British spy, who was paid by the DNC and Hillary Clinton to find dirt on Candidate Trump as a basis to continue to get warrants in the secret court to continue to investigate Trump. Emails were falsified as evidence and lies were told to the judges at the secret court to continue to investigate Trump.

It may be how democracy works, but it's how a dumb democracy works.

They are only trying to impeach him because they have no way of beating him in a democratic election. It's a pussified democracy.

cheesy @pussified...new word added to my dictionary. Trump broke the law and he's simply facing the consequences of his actions.

Trump should have been disqualified from even contesting the election the day he called on the Russians to meddle on the 2016 elections and the next day the Russians hacked into the DNC server and also hacked and leaked podester''s emails, he got away with that.

Once he became the president, he divided the country by turning it into us against them and made immigrants looked like criminals and made white supremacy policies that where inimical to what the US stands for but he wasn't impeached still.

The Muller report did not exculpate him but didn't indict him since it was the standard rule of the justice department not to indict a sitting president but Muller also stated that congress was the only one empowered to get the president impeached but he still wasn't impeached so Trump now felt he has grown above the law and can do whatever he wants without being held accountable and now decided to repeat what he did as a presidential candidate but forgot he is now a president and will be held accountable and since he is a repeat offender and the gift that keeps giving, he gave the Democrats an impeachable offense for which he is now being impeached for.

These are the facts.
But the impeachment is neither about the Russian rubbish nor your migration cries. You hate him for his policy towards migrants, Muslims hate him for standing for Christian and some democrats hate him just for winning. You can't impeach someone because you hate him. You must establish a case or cases of gross violation of the constitution. Anything short is a witch hunt.

Trumps problem started even before the election, there were signs he was working with the Russians, he lied he didn't, only for report to show with evidence that he has accounts and run some shady things in Russian. Secondly, he openly said he can't answer to the constitution, he can do anything he chooses to do, and nobody can question him, not even the reps and house, you can't say that in a Democratically run country.......that statement even if its nothing serious, will make a reasonable person pause for a moment.

For Biden, he is not the nominee for the Democrats, they are like 23 candidates vying for the nomination.

So you're saying if Obama did this and wasn't caught, Trump should also do it??

And how do you know Biden won't be the Dem candidate?

Democrats and Hillary were no saints either. Remember Hillary's gross abuse of office and infractions shortly before election when it was discovered that for 3years she has been using personal email for the office of the Secretary of State..... She should be disqualified immediately as well.

To put it as stated, abuse of power and obstruction of congress.

The first centres on Joe Biden and his son. The US president asked the Ukraine president to look into Hunter Biden, who served on a board of Director in a company name Burisma, which is known for its corrupt activities. He had no experience to work there and earned 50000 dollars monthly. He never went to work and He didn't speak the Ukrainian language

Also, Joe Biden while he was vice-president threatened to hold 1 billion dollars of aids to Ukraine, Unless they fire the prosecutor within 6 hours, investigating corruption in the company his son worked.

So the US President said the Ukraine President should look into it.

So the Democrats said this is an abuse of power and the president is trying to use his power to get dirt on his political opponent to win the next election.

Then the obstruction of congress. When there is a dispute between the Legislative and executive branch, they go to the Juidiciary to settle matters, which might take time.

The president exercised executive privilege on the subpoenas dished by the Democrats, but instead of them to go to court to settle, they decided otherwise and say he will be impeached for obstructing congress.

The US president does not have the right to question another company in another country on who serves on their company board and President Trump has released Congressional approved funds twice to Ukrain in 2017 and in 2018 without withholding the funds based on corruption nor has ever mentioned the bidens in 2017 and 2018 not until 2019 when Joe Biden joined the presidential race and all polls in United State's has Joe Biden defeating him at the polls with large numbers so his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani now sold this debunked smear campaign on Joe Biden and also brought up hunter Biden for serving on the board of burisma in Ukraine which is non of America's businesses.

In fact, DT is the one who introduced nepotism in US government by making his daughter with no background on government to be an adviser in this administration and even make her seat in meetings with world leaders when she is grossly unqualified to even be at the entrance gate tankless of seating in such high power meeting's.

Next nepotism is making his grossly unqualified son in-law Jared a foreign policy maker on the issues in the middle east while using him to make business deals with the Saudis while turning a blind eye to the killing of khashoggi by the crown prince of Saudi Arabia simply because of their private business dealings.

With these well known facts, Donald Trump lacks any ounce of morality to even talk of corruption because he is corruption itself.

The majority party in Congress has the soul powers to set the rules on impeachment and decides how to carry it out and it is not binding on them to go to court to compel the executives to comply because it is a political decision and not a judicial one and if they decide to go to court, it will be on their own volition but not bounded by any laws nor statutes to do

She was investigated by the FBI and 2 days to the election, the then FBI director who happens to be a Republican reopened the case again and later dropped it and said they found nothing which also damaged Hillary politically to the advantage of Donald Trump.

The issue here is on what Donald Trump did that is getting him impeached

america just recovered from an election that russia tried to manipulate, russia did in a way but they wouldn't want to admit it


russia wanted trump to win, under american law its a crime for a foreign country to aid ur campaign because it will mean that u will owe them favor, ur job as president is to do whats good for america not you


july this year, trump made a call to ukraine, trump's main rival for 2020 is joe biden, joe biden had a son who did business in ukraine, trump told ukraine president in a call, the transcript for that call was leaked that he should announce on tv that he wants to investigate joe bidens son, to make joe biden look like a criminal, that if that was done, he will release aid to ukraine, when the house tried to investigate this issue, trump kept blocking claiming executive privilege


u can even add bribery to articles of impeachment for him self but i'm guessing that democrats are keeping that for the senate trial

The quote below is an extract from my earlier response on why he is being impeached

DT is being held accountable for soliciting the help of a foriegn government to meddle in the next coming election by withholding congressional approved military aid funds to Ukraine in other to get them to investigate his rival opponent for his political gains.

He obstructed Congress by instructing his staff's with firsthand informations about his orchestrated scheme to defile congressional lawful subpoenas which is an admittance of guilt.

So let's stay on facts here on why he is getting impeached and not for any other contrary and irrelevant opinion.

No he shouldn't. It was just this month that the report of the FBI FISA abuse under the Obama Administration came to light and Obama is out of office.

Trump released the Transcipt of the phone call he had with the Ukraine president after Chairman Schiff read a made up and false parody of the call he had with the Ukraine president which Prompted Pelosi to start the impeachment inquiry before the actual transcript was released.

I am not saying he will not be the nominee, I said at the moment, he is not.

Right now Biden's political opponents are those in democrats fighting for the same ticket. Until he wins the primary, he's not a political rivalry with president trump. Joe Biden is not even the front runner for the ticket, the last i checkef he's number 3 on the pull

Obama and Biden investigated president Trump during his election like their lives depend on it. He's the president and making decisions unbehalf of 65m voters who trusted him with the right decisions. If that includes to investigate Joe Biden over currupton so be it.

A shameful day in America history
Shameful Democrats
Shameful Adam Bennett Schiff
