Please excuse my ignorance, but I’m not familiar with the acronym TDS?
Thank you for your concern about my daily cocktail, please do be assured I have that pretty well under control.
As for my disdain for the amount of stupid in America today, that cannot be apologized for because it is purely the stupid of willful ignorance of facts/truth of all those that support the third most vile human of existence;
#1 King David, never quit his repulsive behavior, which cost his grandchildren their legacy.

Please splain to me in detail exactly how President Trump's phone call was illegal and an Impeachable offense. Again in detail, but do not write a novel. Do not bring other arguments, just the phone call. I quadruple dog dare you.

First, it is against the law of Congressional distribution of funds to withhold them for any reason. Second, it appears to violate campaign laws to bribe a foreign government to find dirt on a political rival. Third, then the attempt to conceal evidence and witnesses on those two points.

NO, Caca is a hair stylist, a very good hair stylist that I am proud to call my daughter.
No, I’m smarter about the human condition than most psychiatrists;)
As well, I’m not afraid of, or to acknowledge that I have foibles, and take great pride in myself for seeking help in learning deal with them positively.
Do keep coming at me, but it is only the same stupid as you that won’t see how you give yourself over obligingly to/for ridicule!

That was detailed, concise, and short, so I thank you. I think you and I can have fun bashing each others brains out or in on your second and third points, and we will later, but I believe before we do that we need to discuss your First Point. If you will please allow me to lay out my thoughts, because I think you are partly right in a very broad sense, but you are wrong in this particular case.
Congress appropriated the funds for Ukraine. Okay so far. Now I submit that President Trump's delaying of the funds to Ukraine does not violate anything. He did in the end spend them. I submit the following as evidence of Proof, Precedence, etc.
https://law.justia.com/constitution/us/article-2/35-impoundment-of-appropriated-funds.html" In his Third Annual Message to Congress, President Jefferson established the first faint outline of what years later became a major controversy. Reporting that $50,000 in funds which Congress had appropriated for fifteen gunboats on the Mississippi remained unexpended, the President stated that a “favorable and peaceful turn of affairs on the Mississippi rendered an immediate execution of the law unnecessary. . . .” But he was not refusing to expend the money, only delaying action to obtain improved gunboats; a year later, he told Congress that the money was being spent and gunboats were being obtained.711 "

The president's ability to indefinitely reject congressionally approved spending was thus removed later as a result of your case cited. Congress holds the purse strings and the President can reject or approve.. If he rejects they have to work through it before finding is giving..
Do you know four of the managers appointed on this impeachment panel by Pels voted against funding for Ukraine??
Seven "House Managers" to present the impeachment articles against President Trump. Part of the accusations are that he withheld aid from Ukraine. Four of the seven managers voted AGAINST authorizing the aid in question.

Thank you for a respectable debate: was there expected quid pro quo in Jefferson's delay to intimate or attack a political rival or just a reasonable delay, due to certain incompetence; it seems the latter. A distinctively different case.

Lindajoy, intention matters. Legitimate or personal matters are different under the law. It appears the delay of funds was personal, for political gain and not because there was a legitimate reason for the nation to withhold them. He wanted a leading political rival to be disparaged to help his campaign. He made that abundantly clear in his synopsis of the call to the Ukraine.

Remove Trump's Name from the transcript
Then insert President Obama
Again read the transcript

This should be a requirement for all leftist debating the impeachment.

Hello Jack,
Nice to see you... If BO, his name would never be there to begin with.. Although I do recall some 22 senate members wanted to initiate impeachment they couldn’t garner the support of others....
Agree on the requirement for all to read, its comprehension that gets most of them!!
