The Bolton Bombshell (from his book)

[Rambunctious]

Look up the facts....every president at one time or another including Obama pleaded executive order with witnesses...you can't be this uninformed....it has to do with national security...no one knows what a witness may say...it could be an innocent remark that starts a war....grow up man....take the loss like a grown up and work against Trump if you want but to make shit up and turn common presidential practice illegal is dangerous....

No president has ever attempted to completely shut down a Congressional investigation. It’s not about national security. The witnesses were supposed to testify to the House Intelligence Committee who have the highest clearances and are allowed to have access to the most sensitive secrets.

Nope. This is about covering up Trump’s actions.

Trump didn't either....the dems wrapped it up because Trump was so dangerous they had to impeach and couldn't wait....LMFAO...

Factually incorrect. Trump refused to acknowledge any request or subpoena from the House.

He has every right to do so...Then it goes to court and a judge decides...the dems didn't want to wait for that to happen....

Like I said. This hasn’t happened before. No president has ever refused every single request and subpoena. Whether you think he has the right is irrelevant. It’s never happened.

When were you born?....don't you know that Holder is still held in contempt of congress?....look up the last administrations actions....

Drafts of the book outline the potential testimony of the former national security adviser if he were called as a witness in the president’s impeachment trial.

WASHINGTON — President Trump told his national security adviser in August that he wanted to continue freezing $391 million in security assistance to Ukraine until officials there helped with investigations into Democrats including the Bidens, according to an unpublished manuscript by the former adviser, John R. Bolton.

John Bolton Reportedly Recalls Trump Tying Ukraine Aid To Biden Investigation

How can Republicans not vote for witnesses after this? By Maggie Haberman and Michael S. Schmidt. They are two of the Times best and most credible reporters.

Miami businesses have rarely felt more optimistic about the future.

There's just one big problem they can't seem to shake: finding good help.

According to the Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce and CPA firm MBAF's 2018 Executive Survey, 47 percent of members listed "finding qualified professional employees" as their top concern in the coming year.

Romney, Collins say Bolton revelations strengthen case for witnesses, make them increasingly likely
At least four Republicans would need to support Democrats' call for testimony in a vote expected later this week.

Romney, R-Utah, said it's "increasingly likely" there will be enough Republican senators to vote in favor of calling witnesses in the president's ongoing trial.


"I think, with the story that came out yesterday, it's increasingly apparent that it would be important to hear from John Bolton," Romney told reporters in brief comments. He said he hasn't fully made up his mind on calling witnesses, but what Bolton has to say is "relevant" and "therefore I'd like to hear it."

"I think it's increasingly likely that other Republicans will join those of us who think we should hear from John Bolton," Romney said. "I've spoken with others who've opined upon this as well."

Another moderate Republican senator, Susan Collins of Maine, tweeted out a statement saying the "reports about John Bolton's book strengthens the case for witnesses and have prompted a number of conversations among my colleagues."

LOL

So now you're claiming Republicans don't want to increase Democrats' pain over this?

LOL?

Republicans want zero witnesses.

Where are you getting your lies drom?

 

[gipper]

His testimony is tainted because he is a disgruntled former employee. DUH!

If that’s the best you can do, so be it. It’s incredibly weak. If he’s disgruntled, it’s because Trump isn’t fit for office.

No it doesn’t. Bolton is a much bigger asshole than Donnie. He’s a ******* neocon. Nothing more needs be said, to describe how despicable he is.

Neo Cons are hawks, and Bolton flies with them. BUT, that doesn't mean he is not a patriot and it seems if all reports are true will prove hawks are patriots, and put their country before any political party.

That’s bull shit. Bolton is a ******* psychopath. Patriot my ass. He believes America should rule the world and murdering innocents to achieve hegemony, is just fine. **** him.

I've always wondered why Trump hired him?

Because he’s an asshole. Why would you hire a known warmongering establishment ******, when you claim you are a noninterventionist?

Donnie has surrounded himself with neocons. Pompeo and Esper are both neocons. Pence probably is too. tNo doubt there are many others.

 

[Rambunctious]

Witnesses or not you and the dems have no case at all....if this case goes on it hurts the dems not Trump....it may make you libs feel better but that is just the calm before the storm.....

WTF?? You offered to post all of the NYTimes' lies. Why'd you post that pathetically weak response instead?

Are you kidding?....its 72 degrees outside today....I'm playing golf today not whack a dem....

LOLOL

No one forced you to make that offer. You did so on your own volition. I merely called you on it since I knew you were full of shit -- and to no one's surprise, you proved me right.

If you can wait till after the 19th hole I will oblige....

Sounds like you're playing on an Impeached Trump's golf course.

No but I'm only 23 miles from one....

 

[Jitss617]

All this does want more exposure of the Bidens

I wonder why the Admin still hasn't started an official investigation into the Bidens. Curious.

Shit your already trying to disbar Barr for doing his job if he opened up an investigation in to biden.. and I don’t think any of these things are important to America,, I’m sure barr just wishes you democrats Gain some sanity

No impeachment has ever occurred without evidence of wrongdoing before.

Things change

I know all about Holder’s contempt vote. He was held in contempt after the DoJ participated for years with the investigation into Fast and Furious, turning over tens of thousands of documents and testifying extensively on the matter. You’re factually incorrect. There is zero comparison.

And there's a vote coming up. Only takes 4 Republicans along with the Democrats.

was there a quid pro quo in the transcript?

 

[sealybobo]

After Monday and Tuesday, the only way to hear Bolton's comments will be to purchase the audio version
of his book.

There will be no witnesses.

Acquittal Friday...

@gtconway3d

My take on the Bolton book bombshell: The president’s lawyers didn’t mention Bolton in their opening arguments on Saturday. Now we know why. They must have known what’s in his book—and that his testimony would devastate their defense.

Then George tweeted
No wonder Trump’s lawyers so vehemently opposed Bolton’s being subpoenaed last week. No wonder they’ve been plotting with Senate Republicans to make sure that, if Bolton does testify, he does so in secret.

From Trump on down, they all know how damning Bolton’s testimony would be to Trump’s defense. Indeed, the leak of what’s in Bolton’s book shows how disingenuous the president’s defense has been.

In light of Trump’s own arguments, it would now be preposterous, if it ever wasn’t, for the Senate not to call Bolton as a witness. To refuse to do so would ensure that the trial would be recorded forever in history as a GOP-orchestrated farce.

Well, here’s a witness who can tell us what the president, in a face-to-face conversation, said he wanted.

Trump’s lawyers complained that no witness talked to Trump about the linkage between the aid and the investigation. Well, here’s Bolton, ready, willing, and able to testify.

Thanks for highlighting what an imbecile Rambunctious is.

 

[Jitss617]

can't impeach an ex-president but you can hang him for treason

Once the Republican Senate acquits Trump he will be an official Dictator and he can do anything he wishes.

How will that make him a dictator?

By saying a president can obstruct any investigation in to his wrong doings or impeachment.

The president and all future Presidents would be ABOVE the law, the constitutional impeachment clause nullified, the Congress, our only representation in our gvt would be reduced to ashes and dust.... unless trump is found guilty and removed.

Obstruct what ?

Investigations of wrong doings and oversight, they were tasked to do on the executive branch.

Do you have any reasonable evidence to open a investigation?

Holder was obeying Obama's order not to turn over documents....look it up again....

Will always be acquitted of a lying Schiff/Pelosi impeachment and an Obama deep state attempt at removing Trump....

 

[Care4all]

Refusing all document requests and witness testimony. It’s almost as if there’s something Trump doesn’t want us to know.

Look up the facts....every president at one time or another including Obama pleaded executive order with witnesses...you can't be this uninformed....it has to do with national security...no one knows what a witness may say...it could be an innocent remark that starts a war....grow up man....take the loss like a grown up and work against Trump if you want but to make shit up and turn common presidential practice illegal is dangerous....

They didn't have years of stalling time.... Trump was cheating and corrupt right now and claimed he did nothing wrong, which was a tell tale sign he would continue to cheat in the upcoming election and continue to abuse his power.

Justice delayed, is justice denied.

They went through the courts to get Don McCann and Even though the courts have ruled against him at every turn and appeal level, he's taking it to the supreme court, so it will be nearly two years....
