@earl-of-trumps saidSo, what is your problem with that? If no one within the WH will come forward and reveal possibly criminal activities, including a conspiracy of silence within the WH to cover up possibly criminal activities, someone else will.
I'm suspicious about this whistleblower.
Firstly, the laws regarding the protection of such a whistleblower were changed to now include people reporting second hand information so that said whistleblower can use hearsay information and still get coverage. The law changed two weeks before said WB came forth.
Suspicious.
How did said whistleblower know this? can we all say collusion???
"The inspector general of the intelligence community, Michael Atkinson, said in a letter to the acting head of national intelligence that he knew the whistleblower's identity, but ... had asked for it not to be disclosed."

Let justice now take its course. If the president is innocent, the proper investigative authorities will determine that.

He wound up dead hanging upside down.
We'll take a less radical solution to Trump's crimes and corruption.

@metal-brain saidNot really, he was killed by his own people
It worked for Mussolini. Effective, isn't it?

@athousandyoung saidYou are so negative. 😛
Not really, he was killed by his own people
But seriously, he got into power and that is my only point. He made a lot of stupid decisions that ticked off the Italians and DJT may end up being killed too. You never know.
I'm not advocating fascism, just reporting how it rises. It never ends well.
@mott-the-hoople saidA rigged, corrupt election?
Maybe the American way, an election?
Been there, done that.

@moonbus saidPresidents withhold funding all the time. He might actually have a point if the house votes to impeach, but I want the investigation to move forward to expose how common bribery and threats really are.
Trump declares due process a "coup."

This shows that Trump has not the slightest idea what is really going on or how the rule of law works. He's living in a filter bubble.
If Trump gets impeached it will be a double standard. Bush was never held accountable and he did far worse. He corrupted the United Nations for votes authorizing war with Iraq.

@metal-brain saidBush Jr. was the just the horse; the men holding the reins were Cheney and Rumsfeld.
