It isn’t illegal to withhold aid, fk sonWhen did he publicly announce it? Link?After 6 year of endlessly investigating every leaf that fell under Obama, they found no evidence of any of that. Obama even deferred to McConnell's objection to announcing that Russia was trying to interfere.
You mean Blackmailing a foreign leader to publicly announce that his country was investigation Trump's main rival, and the DNC Server hack being done by Ukraine to favor Hillary. Yeah, that's just not okay. That corrupt.
Yet the foreign leader in question has repeatedly stated that he didn't feel pressured? How do you explain that? Trump asked what he did as a favor. You on the left have attempted to make it "blackmail" or "extortion" because you were trying to make it an impeachable offense!
Everything was contingent on the new President publicly announcing the investigations Trumpybear wanted.
He didn't have to. Trumpybear got busted and the aid, which was being illegally withheld, was finally released.
I bet that pissed him off too. "I'm the President damn it, I should be able to do what I want!"
" the White House violated what’s known as the Impoundment Control Act (ICA).
“Faithful execution of the law does not permit the President to substitute his own policy priorities for those that Congress has enacted into law,” the report said. “OMB withheld funds for a policy reason, which is not permitted under the Impoundment Control Act (ICA)...Therefore, we conclude that OMB violated the ICA.”
