This is a new chapter in the history of impeachment. We will look back on #ukrainegate as the turning point https://t.co/OWTTGOe3xy — PolitiTweet.org

So now it turns out that Trump ordered a holdup of $391 million in arms assistance to Ukraine just days before the call to Ukraine’s president in which he repeatedly pressed for Ukraine to prosecute Biden’s son. Even if no express quid pro quo, this is impeachable per se. — PolitiTweet.org

Now it’s clear what people meant by #selfimpeachment: even his own version of events reveals Trump’s abuse of his power as president to bend US foreign and military policy to get re-elected in 2020. It’s delusional to wait for that election to expel him: https://t.co/PwJ6h07nHi — PolitiTweet.org

This is yet another congressional power rooted in our Constitution and our legal tradition: Congress itself may judge individuals in contempt and impose jail or escalating fines to compel compliance with its subpoenas and other orders. It should do so. https://t.co/PKPNIeVFt1 — PolitiTweet.org

Between them, Trump and Giuliani have confirmed 90% of what’s needed to establish an egregious abuse of presidential power to extort a foreign nation by withholding congressionally approved defense funds to get that nation to help the president stay in office. Must #ImpeachNow. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be surprised if @SpeakerPelosi doesn’t swiftly move the Democratic caucus and thus a House majority toward a fully-backed, no-holds-barred Impeachment Proceeding by the House Judiciary Committee as part of the process of holding Trump accountable. https://t.co/9KK9Z7q1qB — PolitiTweet.org

I take this latest statement by @SpeakerPelosi very seriously. I see it not as a reflexive response to @AOC but as the natural next step in her strategy of making sure that the Dems’ call for impeachment, when it comes, doesn’t fall on deaf ears. https://t.co/rPsQc8uLr9 — PolitiTweet.org

Criminal bribery and Hobbs Act extortion are staring us in the face based just on the facts Trump and his henchman Giuliani have admitted — even bragged about — publicly. @BarbMcQuade explains the details here: https://t.co/tolnUdYBdm — PolitiTweet.org

The issue isn’t whether Ukraine President Zelensky *says* he didn’t feel pressured by Trump (on whom he’s still dependent), or even whether he did in fact “feel” pressured, but whether Trump strong armed him by withholding $250M in vitally needed defense funds Congress had voted — PolitiTweet.org

If Trump was pressing Ukraine to go after Biden’s family at the same time that Trump was withholding aid from Ukraine to defend itself from Russian aggression, that’s enough. No explicit quid pro quo is needed to make this a betrayal of his oath and a “high Crime and Misdemeanor” — PolitiTweet.org

Giuliani can and probably should be indicted for conspiracy to commit bribery, with Trump (aka Individual 1) as an unindicted co-conspirator. @BarbMcQuade is right. But the odds that Barr would do It? Slim to none. — PolitiTweet.org

When the always cautious and restrained @RepAdamSchiff concludes that #Impeachment may be the only remedy if Trump abused his power as POTUS to extort Ukraine for his own political gain, you know we’ve come to a new place on the map of American history. https://t.co/jqZSLIcKdL — PolitiTweet.org

Putin helps Trump become POTUS in 2016. As POTUS, Trump in turn helps Putin kill his Ukrainian rivals by withholding $250M in congressionally authorized military aid from Ukraine — but hints Ukraine will get its aid . . . . if & when it goes after his rival Biden’s son. OMG. — PolitiTweet.org
Laurence Tribe @tribelaw
“There is no evidence that Mr. Biden intentionally tried to help his son when he pushed for the dismissal of the Ukrainian prosecutor, who was widely seen in the West as corrupt.” So Trump & Co. are deflecting by fake whataboutism. https://t.co/gqYv3WvuUk — PolitiTweet.org

“Trump has been credibly accused of using the presidency to enrich himself, to protect himself from law enforcement, and to punish perceived adversaries. Now he may have harnessed the power of the presidency to gain political advantage.” https://t.co/edwnlbjiRT — PolitiTweet.org

“In effect, Trump apparently tried to use American diplomatic might and the leverage of military assistance to get Ukraine to exonerate Manafort for 2016 and smear Biden for 2020.” https://t.co/edwnlbjiRT — PolitiTweet.org

“It’s particularly egregious that Trump seemed eager to trade $250 million in American taxpayer dollars for Ukrainian help in tarring a Democratic rival.” https://t.co/edwnlbjiRT — PolitiTweet.org
