2. Though a quid pro quo is obvious, none is needed.
The drafters of the impeachment clause said so.
Madison was worried about the perfidy of a President, or deceit. He worried a President would wrongly work with a foreign power.
Edmund Randolph was concerned a President would seek to profit from the office, would seek emoluments from the presidency.
George Mason was concerned a President would undermine an investigation into himself, or might interfere with the work and duty of electors.
3. The whistleblower testimony is not needed.
Trump confessed to impeachable activity through release of the call notes.
Mulvaney corroborated it with his presser.
Bill Taylor confirmed it factually.
Lt. Col. Vindman contextualized it all as undermining US national security.
Eisenberg hid the transcript in an ultra secure server, showing consciousness of guilt, obstructing justice and abusing power.

Save all that and print it out and wave it at the TV on January 20th, 2021 as you watch Trump's second inauguration. |
You can’t truly call yourself “peaceful” unless you are capable of great violence.
If you are incapable of violence, you are not peaceful, you are just harmless.

Morrison noted that his predecessor, former national security official Fiona Hill, had told him that Sondland and the president’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani "were trying to get President Zelensky to reopen a Ukrainian investigation into Burisma.” Morrison went on to say that “At the time, I did not know what Burisma was or what the investigation entailed.”
“I did not understand why Ambassador Sondland would be involved in Ukraine policy,” he added. |
