No...Trump didn't break the law with Ukraine funds...so stop drooling, left wingers

No, he didn't, as the link in the first act shows......try reading it...
You "link" has already been exposed as a lie!
This is the thing about the Right, even after you expose their sources as liars, they STILL cling to those same lying sources to repeat their lies!!!!!
Here is the strring where the law was posted that includes YOU in the string, so you can't pretend you were never exposed to the truth!
the administration didn’t have an obligation to release the funds on any specific date in the fiscal year.
But they didn't spend it in time and Congress had to pass an extension to get the money to Ukraine, and there is still $35.2 million outstanding.
So yes Tramp DID break the law.
But you knew that already because the Right claim they know more than anyone else.
What I know is what you say. And I do not believe you.
The Right NEVER believe the truth even when it is spoon fed to them because they are just too lazy to check anything for themselves.
The fact remains that Tramp did NOT get the money to Ukraine before the fiscal year ended and Congress DID pass an extension to get the money to Ukraine and $30.2 million earmarked for grenade launchers, secure communications and naval combat craft is still outstanding.

As much as you hate the truth, you are probably lazy and afraid to click on the link.
Ukraine military aid extension passes US House after White House delay
WASHINGTON―The U.S. House on Thursday passed legislation to make sure Ukraine can spend $250 million in military aid after White House delayed it this summer.

The language was among provisions tacked to a continuing resolution to avoid a government shutdown through Nov. 21 to buy more time for Congress’s spending negotiations. The Senate is expected to take up and pass the stopgap spending bill as-is next week.

The bill would extend for another year funding for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative that would otherwise expire after Sept. 30.

Even if that were true, it does not reach the level of high crime or misdemeanor.
What do you mean IF that were true?
What does it take to get you liars to admit the truth???
Here is the actual law;
https://www.congress.gov/116/bills/hr4378/BILLS-116hr4378ih.pdf
Section 124. Extension of Funding for Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative.
Summary:
Section 124 extends for another year funding for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative that would otherwise expire after September 30.
Law as written;
15 (b) In addition to the amount otherwise provided by 16 section 101 for the ‘‘Ukraine Security Assistance Initia17 tive’’, there is appropriated on September 30, 2019, for 18 an additional amount for fiscal year 2019, an amount 19 equal to the unobligated balances rescinded pursuant to 20 subsection (a) of this section: Provided, That amounts 21 made available pursuant to this subsection shall remain 22 available until September 30, 2020, and shall be available 23 for the same purposes and under the same authorities for 24 which they were originally provided in Public Law 115– 25 245: Provided further, That such amount is designated by VerDate Sep 11 2014 23:40 Sep 18, 2019 Jkt 089200 PO 00000 Frm 00015 Fmt 6652 Sfmt 6201 E:\BILLS\H4378.IH H4378 kjohnson on DSK79L0C42 with BILLS 16 •HR 4378 IH 1 the Congress as being for Overseas Contingency Oper2 ations/Global War on Terrorism pursuant to section 3 251(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency 4 Deficit Control Act of 1985.

That is, of course, a LIE.
The money was NOT spent by the end of the fiscal year 2019, forcing Congress to pass a law in the continuing resolution to EXTEND the time into the 2020 fiscal year. $30.2 million still has not been sent to Ukraine.
But you knew that already when you posted your lie.
Go fuck yourself! The end of fiscal year 2019 was September 30 and Trump released funds on September 11, 2019.
In fact this Bloomberg citation says the State Department released $14i1 million dollars to Ukraine even earlier that that.
State Department Freed Ukraine Money Before Trump Says He Did

You got nothing but lies, idiot! Cite what you claim for once.
Well there you have it, even after showing the lying scum Right that the money was NOT released when lying scum Tramp claimed requiring Congress to extend the time into fiscal 2020, and even posting the actual law extending the time in a continuing resolution HR4378, they STILL continue to lie in the face of the truth!!!!!
 
Read the whole report, however, and one finds the glaring issue with this conclusion, which is that the administration didn’t have an obligation to release the funds on any specific date in the fiscal year. All they needed to do was to make sure the money got spent by the last day of the budget cycle:
-----

In this case, the money did get spent within the budget year.
That is, of course, a LIE.
The money was NOT spent by the end of the fiscal year 2019, forcing Congress to pass a law in the continuing resolution to EXTEND the time into the 2020 fiscal year. $30.2 million still has not been sent to Ukraine.

Still not a high crime or misdemeanor. :auiqs.jpg:

Moron! For one thing Bloomberg is not a right wing source. Remove your head from your rectum and you'll see Michael Bloomberg is running for president as a democrat!
And secondly I'm not disputing the law...only when Donald Trump complied with it by releasing funds to Ukraine.

How incredibly stupid are you?
 
H.R. 4378 is a short-term continuing resolution that would provide stop-gap funding for all federal agencies through November 21 and extend the authorization of certain health programs that would otherwise expire on September 30.Sep 23, 2019

HR 4378 is a stopgap funding measure for federal agencies.....it has nothing to do whatsoever with funding set aside for Ukraine. Nice try, Edith the moron.
 
I think every president before Trump has done exactly what Trump did, place a temporary delay on Congressional aid, and no one in Congress cared.

Just because Trump is president, we are all supposed to think about impeaching the president for placing a temporary hold on Congressional aid?

Five Times Obama Put Conditions on Foreign Aid and Democrats Didn’t Care

Trump placed a temporary hold on all US foreign aid, not just aid to Ukraine.

Foreign aid funds put on hold for review

August 5, 2019 at 4:57 p.m. CDT
The Trump administration has temporarily frozen and ordered a review of several key foreign aid funds that Congress has already approved, in a move that critics fear could lead to another attempted rollback of foreign aid.

The Office of Management and Budget sent a letter to the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development on Saturday, notifying them of the action, which took effect one minute before midnight that day.
 
Here's another article discussing this:

Impeachment Inquiry Witness: Aid to Lebanon Withheld at Same Time, and Same Way, as Ukraine

The transcript of Hale’s closed-door deposition was released Monday evening, on the eve of a slew of new hearings.

Hale, a career diplomat, testified that the suspension of aid to various countries was part of a context in which the Trump administration had “embarked on a foreign assistance review in which we are trying to reestablish the norms that guide the assistance that we provide overseas.” Hale called the review of U.S. foreign aid “long overdue.”

He added, however, that the hold on Lebanon aid had been handled in the same way as the hold on Ukraine aid: “‘[N]o one explained to us in either case, Ukraine or Lebanon, the reasoning behind the hold, or the freeze really.”

Bloomberg is REPORTING the LIE Tramp put out there which has since been proven to be a lie. Tramp IS a Right-wing source!

Like I have proven so many times before the Right when caught lying just keep on lying in the face of the truth!

From the GOP Senate source of your opening sentence that YOU didn't provide a link, for obvious reasons:
H.R. 4378 – Continuing Appropriations Act, 2020, and Health Extenders Act of 2019
Section 124 – Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative

Extends 2019 funding available for Ukraine security assistance into 2020. Without this anomaly these funds would be in danger of expiration.
 
Trump released funds for Ukraine on September 11, 2019. End of issue.
Is the Pelosi impeachment circus claiming Trump didn't give Ukraine their money? No.

He released the funds only after he heard that the whistleblower was on to his treasonous ass. You need to catch up. I`ll help.
So Trump did release funds to Ukraine. I'm glad to see even trolls admit this.
Thanks for your assistance. Btw, you put the ass in assistance.

He released the funds only after his extortion plot was exposed. Which planet have you been on for the last 4 months that you have no idea why he is impeached? Did you have your head up his ass this whole time? His attempt to seek help from a foreign country for his election isn`t allowed under our Constitution.

Extortion? :icon_rolleyes: :icon_rolleyes:
Not even Nadler, Schiff or Pelosi have dared to charge him with that. Grow up, idiot!

I know perfectly well why Trump has been the target of a bogus attempt to remove him from office, which is already seen as a failure.
It's because he won the 2016 election and will repeat again, by all informed sources. It's a way to achieve through
impeachment what the democrats cannot gain through election.
It's a political coup being staged by fools and clowns.

Did you have your head up his ass this whole time? His attempt to seek help from a foreign country for his election isn`t allowed under our Constitution.
You are trying to infer a quid pro quo. Again, not even the impeachment monkeys from the democrat House dare to bring that charge up knowing how ridiculous it is.

Fat Teddy Kennedy sent Gene Tunney to Russia to get their cooperation in defeating Ronald Reagan. That was REAL collusion and anti Constitutional interference in our election.
You've got a tissue thin case which will fall apart in an instant.

The money was NOT released in Sept 2019 which is why Congress had to pass an extension into fiscal 2020 for the money to be sent to Ukraine.
This has already been proven to you in this very thread, but like the worthless lying scum POS you are, you just continue to lie!

Your link claims the money was released on Sept 11, 2019, but the money was STILL held up on Sept, 26, 2019 when the Senate voted on the extension to fiscal 2020.

So if the money was released on Sept 11 why did the Senate have to vote an extension on Sept 26??????
Lie your way out of that!

CNN says you are a fucking liar.

"
In a phone call on September 11, Ohio Sen. Rob Portman made one last pitch to the President, telling him that with the end of the fiscal year fast approaching, if he didn't act soon there wouldn't be time to get the money out the door, according to six sources familiar with the call.
Trump put up his usual defenses with Portman, claiming the US was getting a poor deal in Ukraine and that European allies weren't doing their fair share to help the embattled former Soviet republic, the sources said.
But in a move that surprised officials from Washington to Kiev, after months of holding up the money the President finally relented. That evening after his call with Portman, Trump released the funds."


Events behind Trump's decision to release Ukraine money remain a mystery - CNNPolitics
