well they are just supposed to keep it in consideration
but it doesn't bind them
i mean the senate probably wont boot out trump but if actual evidence of a quid pro quo comes out they could
I imagine trump going on a rant about deep state and witch hunting and such
quid pro quo isn't really illegal with foreign countries though
if the GOP just vote not guilty then it really doesnt matter
that's how most diplomacy is done pretty much
it is illegal i'm pretty sure
it's only really illegal internally
in the united states
How would we know?
maybe not in some cases but if trump actually called zelenskey to get dirt on biden specifically and used the aid as leverage that is absolutely illegal
that's still in the realm of possibility in other evidence
Well, thats is if the senators say its illegal
I mean the law is really flexible when it comes to these things
if you look at terrorism law, there is some crazy stuff
that is on the books
and most of that deals with things outside of the us
Do we still prosecute noncitizen criminals?
i mean, sort of i guess? but it also depends on the support of the president from inside the government
we also have blacksites around the world
that are under our jurisdiction
also u.s. citizens that communicate with foreign nationals have a lot of protections stripped away
as far as being investigated
you can pretty much investigate them for any reason at all
you just need a fisa warrant which is insanely easy to get
the sort of initial justification to investigate is very loosely terrorism related and you can use any other "evidence" you obtain during the investigation
well it's not just terrorism really but in the interest of national security
and national security needs can be interpreted however you want to
so they can investigate biden's son because of his dealings with foreign nationals and if they uncover evidence of corruption during it, they can use that evidence
and because they aren't really investigating biden specifically, they can use evidence that might turn up to show biden also being implicated in this corruption conspiracy
The law is usually interpreted along these lines. Like we aren't technically doing this investigation to find corruption but doing this investigation in the interest of national security will probably turn up evidence of corruption and we can just say that we stumbled upon this evidence by circumstance.
The normal rules regarding exclusion of evidence don't apply to these national security investigations is the crux.
trump 2020
GOP. If ypu don't impeach Trump... Warren or Sanders wins.
impeach him for what?
1. Federal election rule violations / crimes 2. Using the office for his own enrichment instead of the countries 3.
Obstruction of justice
@pennypal agreed trump is evil and needs to be put in jail
trump wont get kicked out of office, impeachment will fail
however, i do support an impeachment inquiry, as it allows the democrats (mainly, im pretty sure 1 or 2 republicans are along) to continue investigating
