Didn’t you vote for the “grab them by the pussy” guy or did I get that wrong?
It’s not like he made a clenched fist/solidarity sign to Capitol rioters.
[….]
He’s not wrong. And your guy did this daily for four years.
Can you please direct me to your tweets criticizing Trump for the language he used in office or how he treated reporters?
I don’t remember you having a problem when Trump described the press as being the enemy of the people and called rivals scum.
Josh misses the president that bragged about sexual assault and planned a violent coup
Havent seen you round these parts much lately. How is Virginia?
Give me a break. Remember the former guy and the things he said? Don’t be so hypocritical.
Dear Mr. Hawley. You should be very familiar with the phrase you are referring to. I’m sure you have heard it many many times. I often describe you with the exact same phrase. When using the phrase to describe anyone from @FoxNews, it is totally appropriate.
I mean…. He isn’t wrong. He could say the same of you.
It’s a lot more presidential than inciting an insurrection.[….]
I think he should call another press conference just to repeat himself!
He was absolutely correct in that assessment, after all.
I’m surprised you’ve still got pearls left to clutch, figured they’d all have disintegrated from overuse
Heh.
Don’t worry Joshy you’ll never have to worry about being Presidential
Heh.
Honesty is the best policy. Try it sometime.
Clutch those pearls, Josh. [….]
Sometimes you just have to state the obvious.
And yet again this isn’t going the way you thought it would.
U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 8
…The Congress shall have power…To declare war, grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water…
Today:
Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
The War Powers Resolution not only ties @realDonaldTrump’s hands at a time when flexibility is needed, but it sends a signal to Iran that the defense of our nation is not at the forefront of congressional priorities. Instead, this resolution suggests that partisan politics are. 1:21 PM · Jan 9, 2020
Some of the responses:
let’s bookmark this tweet for months from now when people are still dying and suffering because of an unnecessary and impulsive murder that will harm many many people except, of course, the white Republicans cheering on the deranged lunatic in the white house
So you’ve abandoned your oath to the constitution and have chosen to ignore the separation of powers.
You’re okay with signing over your power to the executive branch.
Got it.
Jesus… Pick up a American History book. YOU, as part of Congress have the power to go to war. Founders wanted YOU in the Congress to debate it and the come to consensus. They HATED the idea of a King taking us to war!
Congresswoman, according to the Constitution, who has the power to declare and wage war? Is it the Legislative or the Executive?
How many guesses?
Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the U.S. Constitution:
“[The Congress shall have Power …] To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water …”
#TakeItUpwiththeFramersVicky
Hey Vicky, have you READ the constitution?? Maybe you need a refresher!
It is Congress’s role to declare war, not the president’s. Can you read?
Why do you hate the Constitution?
No,it gives Congress more authority- as founders intended.
It sends the message that we are a democracy.
Bingo! We have a winner.
Post a list of names that voted for this, please.
Too ill informed and lazy to look it up.
War decisions were never designed to be given to one man. Our constitution always intended for the house, representing the will of the people to have say. U.S. Citizens enjoy this in Our great nation, we are not an autocracy or a dictatorship. @GOP
You are hardly one to lecture on partisan politics. Trump says jump, you say how high.
So you swore an oath to the trump crime family and not to the United States? You are actively working against the best interest of this country and need to be replaced. Shame on you for spitting on your oath to uphold the Constitution.
What it tells me is that the Dems don’t want an unstable malignant narcissist to be able to fly of the handle and start a war. That seems reasonable. Why are you so willing to give up your co-equal branch of govt constitutional powers?
“Partisan Politics”? That’s exactly the game you play. The GOP is now the Party of Trump. You do what he tells you without even thinking or taking into consideration how your vote affects your constituents. Shame on you.
Well then why don’t we just dissolve the House and Senate and go for the dictatorship you are looking for. While we’re at it we can just tear up our constitution and Trump can use it to wipe his ass before he flushed the toilet 10-15 times.
Blindly defend him Vicky. Dignity is overrated
She got to ride on Air Force 1 once.
Oh come on!!! Read the constitution that you are supposed to uphold Vicky.
The only bipartisan vote throughout this entire impeachment inquiry has been to not move forward.
Now, even more House Democrats are coming forward to hold Speaker Pelosi to her own standard and vote against the impeachment against @realDonaldTrump.
[….] 5:15 PM · Dec 15, 2019
As usual, there was much hilarity in the responses:
This is not a refutation of any of the evidence that Trump abused his office and obstructed Congress. Why can’t you refute those charges? Is it because they are true so you can’t refute them?
One person.
You mean that one Democrat from NJ that switched parties?
Uh, if he’s switched parties that means he’s a republican.
Fox News says 50% of America supports impeachment and removal. Roughly 10% undecided. Roughly 40% still delusional. Sorry, I stand with the majority.
LOL anyone who doesn’t put the GOP above all has “flipped.” Wow. There is no light for some.
Well I[f] they don’t care about our democracy and country
Entire @GOP clearly forgot the oath they took
I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic…
We will remember that you don’t care about our national security, our elections, or the Constitution. Your crafty use of the word bipartisan, is very unbecoming, when it IS the GOP’s who refuse to uphold their oath. YOU HAVE NO SHAME!
Hi Representative Hartzler – What did @GOPLeader mean when he said Putin pays Trump? Let us know, ok? Thanks!
Yeah, we remember that.
You forgot about Justin Amash.
I guess in Missoura you don’t care about election interference …
You’re voting against our Constitution.
The people want this corrupt man who thinks the rules are beneath him removed. He does not serve the people, only himself.
#ImpeachAndRemoveTrump
The Republican party is turning me into a Democrat.
Can you say I’m LYING, Vickie???
What the Republicans are doing is covering up crimes of a president and that’s on all of the Republicans.
Can it be helped that the whole Trump/GOP is corrupt?
Only @justinamash had the moral fortitude to call Trump out, & y’all asked him to leave the party. You’re spineless, & willing to support a blatantly corrupt president because you fear the political ramifications, the consequences to the country be damned.
WTH are you smoking lady ?
Trump is a liar. Always has been. Always will be.
In other words, your oath to the Constitution does not amount to a hill of beans to you. Where exactly in the Constitution regarding impeachment does it state that it must be bipartisan? I’ll clue you in, it doesn’t.
It’s not bipartisan because you Republicans are a cult. Your Dear Leader commands you.
Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
The Judiciary Committee #ImpeachmentVote was a straight party vote. I remember when Speaker Pelosi and Chairman Nadler said that impeachment should be broad and bipartisan.
#MO04 overwhelmingly support @realDonaldTrump. I won’t be supporting the Democrats’ political theatrics.
[….] 9:44 AM · Dec 13, 2019
“…I remember when Speaker Pelosi and Chairman Nadler said that impeachment should be broad and bipartisan….”
It is. If you don’t count the republican sycophants in Congress.
As usual, there was much hilarity in the comments:
I remember when the GOP cared about the Constitution too…
It should be…..but GOP put Trump above the Constitution.
Never in my life did I think I would live to see the day the gop betrays the country en masse, and yet here we are.
“should be” but “can’t be” when we have a #ComplicitCorruptGOP full of #usefullidots
“Make America Great Again” – in Russian.
Hard to be bipartisan when you have a panel of monkeys covering their eyes and ears and intentionally misconstruing the Constitution whilst screaming into mics in a pathetic contest to see who can get a FOX News soundbite to activate the dialysis center voting bloc.
“Россия” (Russia) – a variant of the Russian presidential flag.
That would require you. #CountryBeforeParty
Vicky Hartzler, enabling the man behind Trump University and the Trump Foundation.
You have abdicated your sworn duty and responsibility. Shame on you
This independent, suburban voter thinks the fact that this was a vote straight done party lines says more about Republicans than Democrats.
I feel like I’m living in the twilight zone, how in the world can you deny the evidence against that poor excuse for a human being. You are doing a great disservice to this country and the people will remember this!
Maybe, maybe not.
I think Pelosi made the grave mistake believing that there were a few Republicans that would stand up against a man so corrupt he had to pay 2 million to charities he stole from. It was her genuine mistake to believe this could be ethically handled.
It should be but Republicans are corrupt. All roads lead to Putin.
In Russian – “We are so fucked.”
That was when there was still an assumption Republicans would put country before party. That’s clearly out the window. And it doesn’t preclude the Dems doing the right thing. You’re shameful.
It has gone down the toilet with trump
I remember when #GOP was respectable.
We never thought the GOP was this criminal. But ya are, Blanche!
As your constituent I want you to know that I SUPPORT the impeachment of the traitor trump. And if you don’t then I will actively campaign against you in your next election.
I remember when representatives worked for the country and didn’t enable a criminal
If only there were witnesses who were handed subpoenas that could provide exculpatory evidence for the President…
She incorrectly assumed that there would be some members of the GOP that weren’t treasonous cowards. She was wrong.
There’s that.
So you think it is ok for a president to withhold aid in exchange for help with his personal reelection campaign? Our only if it’s your guy? It’s ok for a president to refuse to cooperate with a constitutionally mandated congressional investigation?
You too took an oath to defend the constitution, and you, your colleagues, and @POTUS are guilty dereliction of duty! Do your job and defend the Republic!
I remember when the GOP respected the constitution. Good times, long ago.
It would have been broad and bipartisan if Republicans had read the Constitution and followed its guidelines. No sane, ethical person can possibly think that what Trump has been doing to our country is right. It’s immoral and traitorous.
And it should have been. Too bad republicans are cowards who will not stand up for our democracy.
Complains about voting along party lines
Votes along party lines.
You can’t write hypocrisy like this
Yes, it’s too bad that the Republicans are more about partisan loyalty than loyalty to the OATH OF OFFICE they took. It makes me sad.
I remember when republicans were against foreign influence in our elections.
Maybe you should try having a town hall sometime so you can find out what your constituents actually think
Bingo!
So you don’t support impeachment for political reasons, the truth and the Constitution be damned? Got it.
Do you remember when you had a soul? What did you get for it, Vicky? Did you trade it for a golden fleece? Will that protect you from the scythes of history? The contempt of men and women?
Political theatrics is what the GOP displayed for all of America to see. #MoscowMitch
Shame on you. Your constituents wont forget your cowardice.
The GOP chose to ignore the abuses by Trump. That is on, and will always be on the GOP. That stain will stay with them in all of history.
Following a con man pulling the ultimate con.
Host a town hall and you will learn otherwise. Don’t forget you represent your whole district not just your base.
Not gonna happen.
Impeachment doesn’t undo an election. It charges an unfit President with high crimes and misdemeanors. If he were to be removed Mike Pence would be President and HRC would still be a private citizen. Get it?
And I remember what @LindseyGrahamSC said about @realDonaldTrump before he got elected. DO YOU?
There’s that.
How nice to know your job is far more important then your oath of office, the Constitution of the US, and the American people as a whole, history will record you as being just that spineless.
When history is recorded, people will note the Republicans who did not vote for impeachment.
That was said before and surely couldn’t have accounted for the fact of the entire GOP turning their backs on their oath of office to uphold and defend the Constitution. Just to protect one conman who would throw you under the bus in a heartbeat if it meant saving himself.
I’d like you to do me a favor, though.
Heh.
I remember when republicans cared about the rule of law. I guess times have changed huh?
The impeachment is not trying to undo Missourians’ votes for President Trump. That is dishonest and misleading. On the other hand, if you are in favor of Congress abdicating oversight of any President going forward, vote no.
So are you in the “he didn’t do it” camp or the “it’s fine that he did it” camp?
The “I don’t want to get primaried by a greater whack job than me” camp.
You can’t say you made this decision based on the evidence submitted. What ever price they paid for you was too much. I hope you got the money up front
Republican intransigence is not a defense
When you took office you swore an oath to protect & defend the Constitution of the United States, not to defend/protect the president or the Republican Party. Evidence shows trump committed impeachable offenses. To vote for impeachment is to honor your oath.
Shocking to no one. You would rather watch our democracy burn then dare get in the way of your farm subsidy checks. But hey, maybe you want to come to the biggest city in your district to talk about it? Lol – just kidding, I know you never willingly talk to your constituents.
I think they underestimated how craven their current Republican peers are. Congrats on being on the wrong side of history.
You will go down in history as part of the Russian plot to take down American democracy.
Future generations will have to read about it in Russian.
spare me with your bull
Putin thanks you Vicky
I am embarrassed for the GOP theatrics and hysteria during the proceedings. The only thing they can do is yell and scream nonsense because there is no defense for the lawlessness of the current administration. As one of your constituents I ask you to put Country over Party.
I remember when Republicans were intellectually honest and had principles.
Actually, no, I don’t. They have been systematically lying to the American people, defunding education systems, disenfranchising voters, and enriching their donors since before I was born.
Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check…
[….] Q: And since that is really U.S. policy to further the rule of law and to discourage political investigations, having the President of the United States effectively ask for a political investigation of his opponent would run directly contrary to all of the anticorruption efforts that we were making. Is that a fair statement?
A: I would say that request does not align with what has been our policy towards Ukraine and many other countries, yes….
A: I believe it is a matter of U.S. policy and practice, particularly since I have worked in the area of promoting the rule of law, that politically related prosecutions are not the way of promoting the rule of law, they undermine the rule of law.
Q: But is that written as a policy somewhere or is that just standard practice?
A: I have never been in a position or a meeting where I’ve heard somebody suggest that politically motivated prosecutions are in the U.S. national interest.

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
Witnesses should’ve had to actually… witness something.
This entire #ImpeachmentHearing has showcased hearsay, giving perspectives on second- and third-hand info.
Our diplomats are the most formidable in the world and they are being used by House Democrats to spur gossip. 10:14 AM · Nov 15, 2019
There was much hilarity in the responses:
It is good to know you want Mulvany, Pompeo, Guiliani, Pence, and Trump to testify. Are you going to put that into a resolution?
You weren’t listening. She witnessed a pattern of lies and corruption from @realDonaldTrump that led up to the actual act of #bribery. That’s how this works. Also, we’d really love to hear from @RudyGiuliani, @SecPompeo, and John Bolton.
Tell @WhiteHouse to stop blocking first hand testimony. That will fix it, right? What a hypocrisy and betrayal of our nation.
This is a great trick —refuse to let anyone close to the president testify and then complain none of the witnesses testifying are close enough.
So you agree that we need to bring in Pompey, Mulvaney, and anyone else on the trump staff to confirm or deny current testimony?
It DISGUSTS me that you represent Missouri
She was removed from her position and threatened by the President. She has first hand knowledge of that corruption.
All roads lead to Russia – still waiting for those tax returns…
She witnessed private citizen, non-Govt Official Giuliani back channel that was IGNORING the actual Diplomats that are supposed to be handling foreign policy, and running it himself.
can’t have it both ways, sugarplum
your tribe CREATED the unavailability of first hand witnesses!
Missouri deserves better than your fealty to a crime family
so you’ll be pushing for Mulvaney, Bolton, Guiliani and others to come before Congress and testify, right?
So send up Pompeo, Mulvaney, and Giuliani
Tell The White House to let the actual witnesses testify then. I can’t believe you’re all trying to do this for a guy who couldn’t give two shits about you or this country
There’s a new talking point for R’s. Didn’t you get the memo?
Well, then, if everything was so perfect, why doesn’t the WH and the State Department release every document related to this incident? Why is it hidden on a server? Why has every document request been blocked, if there’s nothing wrong? WHAT ARE THEY HIDING? #transparency
The President won’t testify and he won’t allow the first hand participants testify. You can’t have it both ways!
Vicky, who do you think is preventing all the first hand witness testimony? Seems like a pretty bad argument.
I spy a representative who has not been paying attention.
Or, if you prefer, willfully dense.
Weak defense, but maybe supporting treason will play well in Missouri.
Ambassador Yovanovitch was smeared on the phone call, by Donald Trump.
Before removal from her position, she was smeared by Donald Trump, using the lies from the corrupt prosecutor.
On the phone call, Trump PRAISED Ukraine’s corrupt prosecutor.
Yes, she’s an important witness.
Our diplomats, who serve their country no matter who is president, have been used by Trump and Giuliani (when was his election? Confirmation?) to chase conspiracy theories. As I would expect, they’re too good to do Trump’s dirty work.
You see how Trump treated a formidable diplomat? He intimidated her while she was on the witness stand – witness tampering in real time for all to see. You must be so proud.
Corroboration of firsthand accounts from Sondland. You’re either gaslighting or an idiot. Chose a lane.
You should be ashamed of yourself. Our diplomats are being used as pawns by a corrupt president, instead of receiving the support they deserve from congress. Wake up.
Will you ever put your country first? Or nah?
You sure do love tweeting instead of replying to your constituents’ emails.
Putin lover
Well, it could just be that she thinks he’s misunderstood.
Take your crocodile tears somewhere else. Just because your supporters are stupid, doesnt make what you say profound.
Ouch.
Keep in mind I have not seen @RepHartzler stand up to the president when he calls Americans human scum for disagreeing with him, have you?
Is this a leader who has the courage to stand up for Missourians? Does she have the courage to protect the Constitution?
This is the BS republicans spew when they are desperate.
This shows that either you weren’t listening or you have no integrity. You are Trump’s cover up ‘tool’ and we know that.
Wow! Another devastating day for the Trump crime family.
Trump is very clearly a corrupt, self-serving liar, cornered now by the facts.
Oh my god Vicky are you that stupid?

Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
For 6 weeks, @SpeakerPelosi and @RepAdamSchiff have been selectively leaking portions of the transcripts in an effort to build a pre-emptive narrative against @realDonaldTrump.
Following House Rule XI, all materials need to be made available to all Members of Congress.
And here we have another one not paying attention to the turning tide. Better get on board Hartzler before the Trumptanic goes down. There’s ice in the water. Impeach Trump!
“I gotta get to the airport”
Heh.
Inquiry or not, Trump pressured foreign governments to interfere in U.S. elections on live television, on the White House lawn in broad daylight and made it as clear as possible.
You can’t honestly sit there & tell the ppl YOU work for that you have to “wait on the facts”
Smh
Remember the summary of the Mueller report that was released by Barr that outright lied about what the report said? I do.
There are republicans on the committee. If there was anything favorable to y’all, it would be leaked. You’re hiding behind this talking point.
Cool, cool. Are you going to read them? Cause they all corroborate the same thing: Trump held our taxpayer dollars hostage from a congressionally approved purpose to extort a foreign leader to politcally benefit himself.
Hi @RepHartzler I saw the video of you scurrying off from a reporter asking you if you think it’s ok for a President to seek help find dirt on an opponent. “I got to get to the airport” seems like a poor excuse to answer a yes or no question. Shameful.
Do us a favor when you see it. Read it. Read every word. It’s damning to your president and those who serve him. That includes you.
We are watching to see what you do. Are you going to stand up for our Country and Constitution or are you going to go down with your party?
this is a party ordered tweet. look at the members of the GOP and note their frantic, party line tweets. They do as they’re told. They lie as they’re told.
Are you even reading these releases? Why are you still arguing process? Oh, right…you have nothing to say on substance, because sticking with Trump is a winning stance. Good luck. May history judge you.
Yes, let’s follow rules!
It’s against the rules to withhold federal aid to a foreign country until said country helps you win re-election.
It’s against the rules for people to break into a SCIF, especially with their damn cell phones on and recording.
Well, yes.
Trump’s DOJ/Bill Barr is the only party guilty of “pre-emptive narratives.” His memo dismissing Mueller rept, misleading the country, and furthering a conspiracy theory that “Ukraine did it! Not Russia!” which has led us here, against findings of ALL US INTEL is blatantly corrupt
Republicans have been part of every one of those depositions. And the transcripts will keep coming. You are looking for Mr. Volker’s, I presume?
Been reading it. You know, it’s easily available from the House Intelligence Committee web site.
You’re not interested in reading. You are just prolonging the inevitable.
Abuse of power
Obstruction of Congress
Using the office of the Presidency for personal gain.
Aiding and abetting a foreign power
Bribery
Extortion
Be careful what you wish for.
All will be revealed.
#BlueWave
Oh, now GOP wants to follow rules? How about starting with testifying when subpoenaed?
I know you might be at the airport, but do you think it’s ok for the president to ask a foreign government to interfere in our election? Pretty easy yes or no question
Just focus on getting to the Airport.
Chicken shit!! Answer the question!!
Did you make it to the airport?
Will you actually read them? Your colleagues are already saying they’ll refuse to read any transcripts.
Sounds a bit like a pre-emptive decision to me.

They weren’t leaks they were opening statements that is different then actual testimony. This shouldn’t have be explained to you.
Until the completely un-redacted notes of the Ukraine call are released, and the completely un-redacted Mueller report are released, you’re just another hypocritical Trumper sycophant.
Well, yes.
She doesn’t hold town halls, that is why folks have to ask questions on Twitter platform, of course she doesn’t respond.
Well, yes.
Vicky Hartzler has become Missouri’s version of Devin Nunes!
Do you think it’s ok for a President of the Unites States to solicit help from a foreign government for political purposes. #ExtortionistTrump
Is it ok for a president to ask a foreign government to interfere in our elections?
You can’t answer a simple f-ing question whether or not its ok to shake down a country for dirt on an opponent. Yes or No?
Congresswoman, do you think it’s okay for the president to pressure foreign governments to I reference in our elections? Asking for a friend, they’re still waiting on your answer.
Not like he isn’t building his own narrative for impreachment.
Why? You guys are saying you’re not going to read it anyway.
Sondland testified Trump and Pence committed crimes of quid pro quo….
Be careful what you say to @SpeakerPelosi, she might be our new president.
the depositions are being released.
you know that.
Why won’t you say whether you think it is okay for a President to extort taxpayer money from an ally unless they interfere in our elections? It is a simple yes or no question. Do you uphold the constitution or not?
And you know why we know that none of the testimonies help Trump, because Republicans haven’t leaked them already.
Face it Vicky, you are part of the most corrupt party in our nations history and all you have left is to complain about the process.
#DoYourJob
And then, like Lindsey Graham, they’ll choose not to read or believe it if it shows Trump did anything wrong. You’re another spineless coward that can’t even answer a straight question. Do your job.
You mean like the Barr memo?
Why are you defending a criminal in office #ExtortionistTrump
Until the had the formal hearing @RepHartzler it was an investigation. I guess you’re not bright enough to know that or just stupid and want to chime in and go along with the other ignorant republicans say keep saying this stupid shit over and over again. Join the idiots.

Some of the responses:
The Impeachment Inquiry is an Investigation. There is no ‘Due Process” in investigations. GOP are doing irreparable damage to the country with this malign nonsense. All to protect a mobster. #RIPGOP #ImpeachAndRemove
It blows my mind you are covering for the criminal in the oval office. Why? What does he have on you and the @GOP? You are selling out the American people.
You know that once your cult has the reality of your lies explained to them your party is finished right?
Best for you to come clean, cut the Resident loose and try to save yourselves. That is what it will come down to & the sooner you realize this the better
Catch up, please. Rules were passed last week in the house that provide fairness, due process and transparency for the American public. You and every Republican in the house voted against it. Maybe you naively thought you could make impeachment go away. #RuleOfLaw #Constitution
I don’t see the problem with the Democrats using the rules the Republicans put in place when they held the house in ’15.
Explain your hypocrisy
AW let’s go for it-being trump in to testify -in person since suddenly written testimony isn’t ok. It will take about 5 minutes to perjure himself and we know republicans are happy to impeach over any lie —whether it has anything at all to do with governing.
Interesting that.
There’s no “due process” during an investigation phase. This is a ridiculous argument.
@JimPressOffice and @RepSteveChabot are absolutely wrong.
There is not a single good argument presented in this piece. Just saying “denying due process” does not somehow mount to anything credible by merely uttering the words over and over again.
Whistleblower protections are the LAW. If you you think it violates the constitution then let the courts decide. It is reprehensible that this person is being targeted for speaking their conscience. The Republican party has sunk to an unthinkable low.
This is an impeachment inquiry, not a court of law, not the trial in the Senate.
They are investigating a legitimate complaint trump verified and confessed to.
So far, that’s the only thing trump has providing the investigation. Why is that?
Stop lying
Trump has done irreparable harm to this country and have fun going down with him.
Are you capable of having your own thoughts or are you required to parrot GOP talking points? Seems very I don’t know, Stepford Wive-ish.
If you want to keep sipping the Kool-aid, by all means, do so. But do it somewhere where we don’t have to listen to it, fair?
This is gaslighting and beneath the dignity of your office.
They’re not. You know they’re not. We know they’re not.
Projection much?
Another republican lie.
Democrats are communists so when they have a majority they run OUR, not their, country like the communists they are! Pelosi can pack her bags as her tenoir as speaker ends in 2020 forever.
Heh.
Who writes this crap? Trump abused the power of his office, and he’s going to be impeached for it.
The End.
Funny, I thought the irreparable harm to the presidency came from the president when he attempted to bribe a foreign country to get dirt on a political rival. Silly me! It’s reallytge investigation of the bribe that’s the problem!
You simply can’t be this dumb and manage to get elected to Congress. Please tell me this is an act and you are not this stupid.
I suspect you don’t understand about 70% of these words.
The first testimony is released. So what will the GOP whine about next? Because it is already damning to Trump and GOP cult followers.
You people are delusional. Did you not read the same transcript I did? You don’t get to rearrange the conversation to fit your idea of an illegal act. Why shouldn’t we ask a country, who’s asking us for aid, to investigate meddling in our election. Are you all taking crazy pills

I recognize you aren’t a lawyer, but as a lawmaker you should be able to recognize the difference between the end of Mueller’s investigation, but the very real continuation of the SDNY’s investigation into financial crimes.
Unfortunately, for all of us, it is by no means over.
“…while this report does not conclude the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.”
-literally the words of the 4 page summary.
The prosecution of Manafort put the investigation in the black. $25 million for the investigation, Manafort is on the hook for $46 million. Pretty sure that equals PROFIT?
Learn to read.
Congresswoman you left out all the indictments, the guilty pleas, the fact that campaign chair is in federal prison and in federal court documents the president is referred as Individual 1.
Correction: The #BarrSummary concluded there was no collusion or obstruction while also stating “It does Not exonerate him” from obstruction of justice.
For a #WitchHunt there are an awful lot of people indicted and/or going to prison.
Let’s see the #MuellerReport
He did NOT say no obstruction. This a bald face lie.
It should not be hard to exonerate an innocent person. That in 2 years the special counsel was unable to exonerate the president speaks volumes. Your continued ignorance is a disservice to the 4th district and you should be ashamed of yourself
Paul Manaforts conviction and forfeiture PAID FOR THE WHOLE INVESTIGATION.
And the results don’t “exonerate trump once and for all”, they literally say they DO NOT exonerate him
… and that’s it now up to congress to proceed with subpoenas and charges
Do your job, stop lying.
37 People with criminal charges. including Russians who worked to help Donald Trump get elected.
@POTUS is a vindictive, narcissistic nincompoop and serial liar who praises despots and attacks honorable people who disagree with him or ask for accountability.
Actually you know that mueller stated that the report did not exonerate him. You also know that payments collected far exceed the cost of the investigation. But you won’t tweet that will you?
The investigation may have actually paid for itself based on what was uncovered, but you don’t want to actually talk about that do you, Vicky? You don’t even mention ACTUAL charges (199) brought. Stop. Trying. To. Spin.
You’re a partisan corrupt hack. The report says he is not exonerated. You clearly cannot read.
Not exonerated on the obstructing. Push for the full report to be released or you are a hypocrite, wait we know you are one. #BarrReport #ReleaseTheFullReport
The report does not exonerate Trump from obstruction of justice, according to Barr’s summary.
37 witches, including Russian operatives.
But wait…. I thought @realDonaldTrump just called Mueller an honorable man today? How can an honorable man be in charge of a witch hunt? What a political hack you and the president truly are-both of you!
Just curious…Do you support a release of the entire report? Do you believe Congress should be provided with the evidence that led to the report’s conclusions? Do you support letting the American people decide if the summary document accurately reflects Mueller’s findings?
Do you support releasing the whole report, not just the quick summary by a political appointee? If it completely clears the POTUS, let’s put any doubt to rest – demand the WHOLE report.
I know. 38 indictments are chopped liver. You Trump Republicans are amazing!
