@sfgiantsfan55 @realDonaldTrump Actually, the request to investigate Biden was still pending when he did find out. #FactsMatter — PolitiTweet.org

UNDISPUTED FACTS -@realDonaldTrump blocks military aid to Ukraine -Right after Ukranian leader asks about military aid on phone call, Trump asks for "favor," one of which was to investigate Biden -Trump lawyers repeatedly pressure Ukraine to investigate Biden #SundayThoughts https://t.co/RQzZfAxkY8 — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Why can't Stephen Miller answer questions from Chris Wallace? Because FACTS. It is illegal & unAmerican for @POTUS to solicit a foreign power to help his re-election campaign, and to use private lawyers (and maybe Barr) to pressure Ukraine. Trump also blocked aid to Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Why can't Stephen Miller answer basic questions from Chris Wallace? Because FACTS. It is illegal & unAmerican for @POTUS to solicit a foreign power to help his re-election campaign, and to use the State Dept & private lawyers (and maybe Barr/DOJ) to pressure Ukraine to do so. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

The new argument from @realDonaldTrump & his enablers that the American people should not have been told about the #WhistleblowerComplaint is not going to be a winning argument. We have the right to know if @POTUS is soliciting a foreign power to help his re-election campaign. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

I served with Mulvaney in Congress. While we disagreed on many issues, he does understand facts. And there is no defense for an American president soliciting a foreign power to help his re-election campaign. The very act set forth in the phone call is wrong, unAmerican & illegal. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @GOPLeader: Did you read the summarized TRANSCRIPT of the actual phone call released by the @WhiteHouse? There are some answers there. And are you really implying that the IC should not have allowed the #Whistleblower to make the complaint? If so, shame on you. — PolitiTweet.org

America is an exceptional country precisely because we are not a race, not a tribe and not a religion. We are an idea, based on freedom, dignity & equality of opportunity. We don't care about your bloodline, we care about your character. That is why we have succeeded as a nation. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

If there is one video you are going to watch this weekend, make it this one. @RepSlotkin @RepSherrill @RepHoulahan @RepElaineLuria and @RepSpanberger show that national security is not a partisan issue, it's an American issue. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Actually, in America the way hearsay rules work is if you make an admission, like soliciting a foreign power to help your political campaign, that would absolutely be admissible. Not only would you get a ticket, you could go to prison. Oh, there's also a summarized TRANSCRIPT. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

This article shows Trump isn't concerned about foreign interference in our elections. Earlier allegation that @POTUS & @NRA discussed gun legislation & money for his defense shows Trump will use official action to benefit himself. Same patterns of behavior as Ukraine scandal. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

If true, this behavior by @realDonaldTrump is unacceptable, wrong and unAmerican. No American President should ever tolerate foreign interference in our elections. It is precisely this kind of unAmerican behavior by @POTUS that lends credence to the #WhistleblowerComplaint. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Another part of the #WhistleblowerComplaint appears to now have been confirmed, namely that locking down the Ukranian transcript was not the first time the @WhiteHouse had done this. With every passing day, the #WhistleblowerComplaint becomes more and more credible. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

The @HouseForeign, @OversightDems & @HouseIntel Committees have scheduled a deposition for Kurt Volker for next week. Mr. Volker was @realDonaldTrump's Special Envoy to Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Why would the @WhiteHouse go to unusual lengths to restrict access to these specific transcripts of calls between @realDonaldTrump and the Saudi Crown Prince and Vladimir Putin? — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

If the below article is accurate, it appears @realDonaldTrump seeks to trade action on legislation in exchange for financial support from the @NRA. That would be illegal. A felony, to be exact. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @realDonaldTrump: This is not a good look for you. It feeds into the view that you put your own interests over those of the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Why did @realDonaldTrump recall US Ambassador to Ukraine Masha Yovanovitch? What does she know about the Trump Administration's alleged months long campaign to pressure Ukraine to investigate Trump's political opponent? The American people and Congress deserve to know. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

If @realDonaldTrump has an innocent explanation, then he will let the truth come out. If not, then the Trump Administration will do everything to continue their obstruction of Congress and the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear @realDonaldTrump: Did you read the memo of your call released by the @WhiteHouse? What you said wasn't just inappropriate, it was criminal. No @POTUS should ever solicit a foreign power to target an American citizen for campaign purposes. It's wrong, unAmerican & illegal. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Your regular reminder that the @realDonaldTrump Administration is suing to eliminate the law that guarantees health care coverage for Americans with pre-existing conditions. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Thank you Chris Wallace for speaking the truth. — PolitiTweet.org

Ted Lieu @tedlieu

Dear enablers of @realDonaldTrump: If the "hearsay" defense is the best you can come up with, then @POTUS is in deep trouble because you can't spin the actual facts that keep getting confirmed. — PolitiTweet.org

Impeachment is one of the gravest powers of Congress, second only to the power to Declare War. It should never be our 1st option, it must always be our last option. @SpeakerPelosi is right: this is a very sad time for our country. We will follow the facts wherever it may lead us. — PolitiTweet.org

The tweets from @realDonaldTrump are getting increasingly bizarre. #FridayThoughts — PolitiTweet.org

Growing up as a kid in Ohio, I would sometimes feel embarrassed that my parents spoke Mandarin in public. Now I'm proud that they did that. Because I was able to learn Mandarin. Because we are a stronger nation if we can speak multiple languages. And because we are all Americans. — PolitiTweet.org
