I wonder if McConnell, GOP, Trump supporters will even care that Trump's withholding Ukraine was illegal? Seems illegality is in the eye of the beholder these days.

Exclamation U.S. GAO (Government Accountability Office): The White House Budget Office Broke the Law, withholding Ukraine Aid

Remember, folks: multiple officials said they felt that they "might" be breaking the law when following orders from Trump to withhold Congressionally approved funding.

How will Trump's DOJ respond?

Exactly. But perhaps those in charge of upholding the law do. Or maybe not. Who knows?

So now we're back to deadlines don't matter after the absence of a deadline being used as a defense for Pelosi's obstruction of Congress? Interesting.

Nope. Your sources are forgetting to inform you, that there was a deadline that was met.
If there were no defined time limit to complete the transfer of funds, you guys would have a much better case.


That deadline was met with weeks to spare. Had Trump held it past the deadline, you would have a good legit case.

What Pelosi did was not illegal. What Trump did was. Not that it matters to many.

Of course that's what you think, because blind partisanship.
