GOP Congressman and Trump Critic Will Hurd Confirms Opposition to Impeachment 2019-11-22 Source: TTN by: TTN Staff
GOP Representative Will Hurd who has been a vocal critic of many of President Trump's actions and policies issued a powerful conclusion following the end of the House Intelligence Committee's public impeachment hearings.
Hurd stated that he thinks that while President Trump's actions were wrong and an improper foreign policy approach he does not believe the President's actions rise to the level of impeachment.
Hill was viewed as a GOP Rep who could join Democrats in supporting impeachment because of his moderate stance, past criticisms, and the fact that he does not face an upcoming election due to retirement.
Part of Hurd's statement is below:
"An impeachable offense should be compelling, overwhelmingly clear and unambiguous, and it is not something to be rushed or taken lightly. I have not heard evidence proving the president committed bribery or extortion. I also reject the notion that holding this view means supporting all of the foreign policy choices we have been hearing about over these last few weeks."
I don't know really how to take Fionas' testimony....I don't think she HELPED Trump, but I don;t think she HURT him either. she seemed to be the one calming voice in the room....I hope I'm not wrong about her...
Fiona Hill emerges as a principled voice in impeachment inquiry "Fierce, focused and fearless."
WASHINGTON — As another ong day of public impeachment inquiry testimony on Thursday wore on, attention turned to one figure who expounded on the greater importance of the subject matter at hand: protecting American democracy.
Dr. Fiona Hill, a former National Security Council official, delivered punchy lines of testimony and asserted her position as a witness in the inquiry who would present facts exactly as she knew them to be, persistent in the face of accusations of partisanship.
GENIUS! Rep. Mike Turner Embarrasses Impeachment Democrats And Fake News CNN With Their Own Witness! EN-VOLVE.COM by
Doyle Alexander
Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) hammered U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland on Wednesday during Democrats’ impeachment inquiry hearing on the House Intelligence Committee. Hill got Sondland to admit that “no one on this planet” told him that financial assistance to Ukraine was connected to any investigations.
“After you testified, Chairman Schiff ran out and gave a press conference and said he gets to impeach the president of the United States because of your testimony and if you pull up CNN today, right now, their banner says ‘Sondland ties Trump to withholding aid,’” Turner said. “Is that your testimony today, Ambassador Sondland? That you have evidence that Donald Trump tied the investigations to the aid? Because I don’t think you’re saying that.”
“I’ve said repeatedly Congressman, I was presuming,” Sondland replied.
“So, no one told you?” Turner fired back. “Giuliani didn’t tell you? Mulvaney didn’t tell you? Pompeo didn’t tell you? Nobody else on this planet told you that Donald Trump was tying aid to these investigations, is that correct?” –
An investment firm linked to Joe Biden's ne'er-do-well son Hunter was bailed out to the tune of $130 million in federal loans while Joe was vice president.
Following the bailout, the firm rerouted its profits to a subsidiary in the Cayman Islands.

Multiple lawmakers criticized the opaque selection process for being susceptible to corruption.
Following the bailout, the firm rerouted its profits to a subsidiary in the Cayman Islands.
The Washington Examiner reports:
Rosemont Capital, an investment firm at the center of Hunter Biden’s much-scrutinized financial network, was one of the companies approved to participate in the 2009 federal loan program known as the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, or TALF.Under TALF, any U.S. company could apply for government loans. But the Treasury Department and Federal Reserve had the right to reject prospective borrowers for any reason.
Under the program, the U.S. Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve Bank issued billions of dollars in highly favorable loans to select investors who agreed to buy bonds that banks were struggling to offload, including bundled college and auto loans.
According to federal records, 177 firms participated in TALF, many of them well connected in Washington or on Wall Street. For investors, there was little risk and a high chance of reward. The Federal Reserve funded as much as 90% of the investments. If the bonds were profitable, the borrowers benefited. If not, the department agreed to take over the depreciated assets with no repercussions for the borrowers.
“It's very complicated to become qualified as a TALF borrower or as a TALF fund, if you will,” Carol Pepper, a wealth management specialist, told Forbes in 2009. “But that's an example of where, if you can get into a TALF fund, you can benefit from this government program.”

Corruption Capsizes Ilhan Omar’s Scandalous Career – Democrat Funneled $370K Dollars To Her Adulterous Lover! by Doyle Alexander
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has paid nearly $370,000 to a political consulting firm at which the man she allegedly had an affair with is a partner, according to the New York Post.
Omar’s alleged affair with Tim Mynett of the E Street Group was first reported by the Post in August after the discovery of court documents in which Mynett’s wife said her husband confessed to the affair with Omar in April. Both Omar and Mynett have denied it.
In August, it was discovered that Omar’s campaign had paid $223,000 to the E Street Group since 2018 for various services. Since then, Omar’s campaign has paid the firm another $146,712.63.
The National Legal and Policy Center, a conservative watchdog organization, filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission in August. But the FEC can’t pursue an investigation because it is short of the four commissioners necessary to vote on complaints. The Senate would need to confirm a fourth commissioner.

According to The New York Post:
The Washington Post deleted a key detail from its reporting about the FBI lawyer accused of altering a document related to the surveillance of a former Trump campaign adviser, according to a new report.
The newspaper nixed a portion of its story that identified the lawyer as an FBI employee underneath Peter Strzok, the ousted FBI agent who worked on the feds’ investigation into Russian election meddling, Fox News reported.
The update was made just after midnight Friday without explanation.
The lawyer in question is accused of fudging the document related to the FBI’s Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court warrant application to surveil Carter Page in 2016.

Trump calls for Senate trial, seeks whistleblower and Schiff as impeachment witnesses
Brooke Singman
President Trump, during a wide-ranging interview Friday morning with “Fox & Friends,” called for a Senate trial should the House impeach him and pressed for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, the whistleblower and others to be called as witnesses.
Calling into “Fox & Friends” after a packed week of hearings where a parade of witnesses alleged high-level involvement in efforts to pressure Ukraine to investigate Democrats while aid was withheld, Trump blasted the inquiry as “a continuation of the witch hunt” and downplayed the impact of the testimony.
“There’s nothing there,” Trump declared, claiming "there should never be an impeachment" and he “doesn’t know” the majority of the witnesses.
But following a meeting with senators a day earlier, the president announced on the show that if the House impeaches, "Frankly, I want a trial."
He stressed that Senate trial would provide the opportunity to call other witnesses -- including Hunter Biden, whose dealings in Ukraine were at the heart of what he wanted investigated out of Kiev, and especially Schiff.
“There’s only one person I want more than 'Where’s Hunter?' and that is Adam Schiff,” Trump said.

Pelosi’s Son Is Now Under The Microscope – His Ukraine Closet Swings Wide Open By Jon Brenner |October 6, 2019
Wow, didn’t think anyone would find that, did you, Nancy?
Nancy acts like she’s squeaky clean – well look what we have here!
Pelosi is pushing full steam ahead with impeaching Trump, but she may have ulterior motives.
Recently we reported on Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, and not only his Ukrainian connections but also his possible U.S. tax debts of $300,000.
Now it looks like Pelosi herself may have a Ukrainian connection worth protecting by deflecting blame on Trump’s friendly phone call.
And it could be her own son on the hot seat very soon:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Pelosi Jr. visited Ukraine in 2017 to meet with government officials in connection to a business initiative. Now, unearthed records reveal that Paul Pelosi Jr. was an executive of a gas industry company that did business in Ukraine – and his mother Nancy Pelosi was featured in one of the company’s promotional videos.
Tucker Carlson Blew a Hole in Impeachment With This One Reality Check
Adam Schiff and the Democrats’ impeachment witch hunt continues to take on water.
But Democrats don’t know when to give up.
Tucker Carlson blew a hole in impeachment with this one reality check.
Adam Schiff called in National Security Council official Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman as one of their “star witnesses.”
Vindman was one of the delusional and power mad bureaucrats infested within the government that sought to thwart Donald Trump’s foreign policy because their loyalty was to the “interagency process.”
Vindman’s testimony backfired on the Democrats in spectacular fashion.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson pointed out one of the most disturbing aspects of Lt. Colonel Vindman’s testimony.
“It’s a measure of how central Vindman – and people like Vindman are – to a certain kind of storyline that many media outlets resolutely ignored the following exchange – maybe the most remarkable thing that happened today and it happened on live television but you may not have seen it, ” Carlson began.
Carlson then played a clip of the Republican Intelligence Committee Counsel forcing Vindman to admit that a high-ranking Ukrainian official offered Vindman the position of Ukrainian Defense Minister three times.
“Every single time, I dismissed it,” Vindman claimed. “Upon returning, I notified my chain of command and the appropriate counterintelligence folks about this, the offer.”

Adam Schiff Just Issued Another Impeachment Threat Against President Trump Katie Pavlich Posted: Nov 20, 2019
During the fourth public impeachment inquiry hearing Wednesday morning on Capitol Hill, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff issued another impeachment threat against President Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
"We can see why Secretary Pompeo and President Trump have made such a concerted and across the board effort to obstruct this investigation and this impeachment inquiry and I will just say this, they do so at their own peril. I remind the President that Article III of the impeachment articles drafted against President Nixon was his refusal to obey the subpoenas of Congress," Schiff said.

Rep. Schiff: Trump, Pompeo Obstruct 'At Their Own Peril'
"We can see why Secretary Pompeo and President Trump have made such a concerted and across the board effort to obstruct this investigation and this impeachment inquiry and I will just say this, they do so at their own peril.

KEY TAKEAWAY: Star Impeachment Witness ADMITS Trump Was Following The Law With Corruption Investigation, Aid Withholding by Doyle Alexander EN-VOLVE
Elise Stefanik just dropped the hammer on the hapless Democrats with a withering opening statement that should put this whole debacle to bed.
She got the Dems star witnesses to admit corruption was a key issue in Ukraine. She got them to admit in 2014 the Obama administration looked into corruption at Burisma, just as Trump did in 2019.
She then hit Adam Schiff with his own petard saying he is refusing to call Hunter Biden and that damages the credibility of the investigation.
She got them to admit that any aid given to Ukraine requires the USA to sign off an anti-corruption initiative showing Ukraine is not corrupt before they get the aid.
She got them to admit it is, in fact, a law that we do so.
She then dropped the hammer and reminded everyone the president, not the staff sets the policy for this great nation.
She read out how many times Vindman said “I” during his testimony implying he thought he was in charge of Ukraine policy not POTUS.
