Illegally armed Mexican drug cartels and ISIS militants

In Operation Fast and Furious, the Obama administration facilitated the sale of thousands of guns to Mexican drug cartels and stopped tracking those weapons once they crossed the border so the administration could later blame the Second Amendment.

Illegally targeted conservative groups via IRS

Obama’s IRS had illegally targeted conservative groups for additional “reviews” of their tax status applications.

Organizations with the phrases “tea party” or “patriot” in their names were singled out for harassment, such as requiring them to provide information about their family members, their social media posts and a list of donors.

Secretly obtained phone records from Associated Press journalists

Carried out military interventionism in Libya without Congressional approval

Had four U.S. citizens killed without judicial process

Obama had four U.S. citizens killed without judicial process, to which then-U.S. Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) said was an impeachable offense.

Ordered private company to fire 1,000 employees

After Boeing hired 1,000 new employees to work at its new factory in South Carolina in 2011, the Obama administration ordered the company to close it down because the factory was non-union.

Fired Inspector General for discovering that Obama’s friend had embezzled government funds

Obama fired Inspector General Gerald Walpin in 2009 after Walpin accused Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson, an Obama supporter, of misusing AmeriCorps funding to pay for political activities.

Later on, a bipartisan group of 145 current and former public officials and legal scholars signed a letter stating Walpin’s firing was politically motivated.

Gave tax dollars to campaign contributors and lobbyists, and falsely claimed the money was for “green energy”

In 2009 the Obama administration gave $535 million to green-energy company Solyndra, claiming that it would create 4,000 new jobs, but the company soon went bankrupt.

Had armed SWAT agents raid a law-abiding guitar factory because it was owned by a Republican

President Obama had an armed SWAT team raid the Gibson guitar factory and seized guitars and other property from the factory – without any charges being filed.

Obama’s so-called justification for the raid was that Gibson had broken environmental laws from India regarding the imported wood that Gibson had been using, but C.F. Martin & Company, Gibsons’s competitor, had used the exact same imported wood.

Tried to outlaw family farms

The Obama administration wanted to eradicate family farms in 2012 by trying to prohibit farm children under 18 from working in various farm-related activities.

Auctioned off ambassadorship to the Netherlands

Obama nominated Timothy Broas to be U.S. ambassador to the Netherlands after Broas donated at least $500,000 to Obama’s 2012 campaign.

Illegally demanded monetary payment for Freedom of Information Act request

The Obama administration demanded the Goldwater Institute pay nearly $79,000 before it would share public records via the Freedom of Information Act.

Stole money from retired Delphi employees

Obama eliminated the pensions of 20,000 retired Delphi employees in 2009.

Used “off the books” funding for military interventionism

Anti-war activists who helped elect Obama accused him of using the same “off-the-books” funding as his predecessor George W. Bush when the president requested over $83 billion from Congress for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Illegally gave Obamacare exemptions to unions that supported the passage of Obamacare

Obama gave some of his favorite organizations an exemption from some Obamacare requirements.

Tried to seize hotel because some of its customers had used illegal drugs

The Obama administration tried to shut down a mom-and-pop bed-and-breakfast because some if its guests had used illegal drugs.

Lied about the Benghazi attack

After four U.S. citizens were killed in a terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, in Sept. 2012, the Obama administration falsely claimed the attack was a spontaneous protest against an anti-Muslim video at YouTube.

Sounds more like an ODS storm.

I don't remember a single thing Obama did however, he was the greatest President of all time.

I'm pretty sure he will be on Mount Rushmore.

They'll tear down Mount Rushmore as it's a monument to slave owning Evil White European Males. In it's place they will put a statue of the bravest person in the world, Caitlyn Jenner.

Ah, the glorious grasping at straws. If it were just Republicans who thought there was nothing to this then Trump wouldn’t be at his highest approval poll rating since inauguration (according to the latest RCP aggregate). Granted, Trump’s poll numbers are unusually stable regardless of what happens, but if you had told Pelosi that Trump’s approval would be trending up in the middle of his trial, I suspect that she might have had second thoughts.

Meanwhile, the talking heads on the Left are bemoaning the fact that even Democrats don’t seem to care that much about impeachment, based on focus group results and the general lack of protests.

Impeachment is a pat-yourself-on-the-back participation trophy for Democrats.

No reason to have second thoughts about impeachment, especially since half the country wants Trump removed. The defense strategy of lying by omission has been funny tho.

lol, what has Biden done wrong? He is still unscathed, Giulani's quest has failed as no evidence of any Biden scandal has been brought forward. Joni Ernst let the cat out of the bag when she wondered aloud how Biden would fare in the Iowa caucuses "after all this." After all what? Trump withheld the aid because he wanted his political opponent investigated, that was his only goal from Day 1. And yet, there is still nothing on Joe Biden.

Some of you are so stupid you don't understand that your nations prosperity should come first and when you play dirty the other side will too and the day you get a Democrat president they will do the same thing to you and you will end up being the real losers. Your enemies want you to do this, they are watching you fight and laughing because the only enemy that can destroy the USA now is yourselves.

We have the same idiotic thing going on in the UK where remainers want the UK to go into a recession and not get trade deals in the hope doing so will force us to beg the EU to take us back.

/yawn. Thanks for the update, we will let you know when we care about you and your country. Please, hold your breath.

The Trump supporters posting in this thread have followed Eiryl'z strip to a tee.

Like most political cartoons, Eiryl’s strip was factually inaccurate for the sake of humor. I know you often make claims about posters that you cannot back up, but I challenge you to find even one person in here whose posts have followed that logical progression. I’ll wait.

As for the Bidens, Pam Bondi just laid waste to them in the trial by quoting Democrats and Left-Wing media to make the case for her. Unfortunately, most of those quotes came before the Left realized that protecting Biden was paramount to their case against Trump and they have since circled the wagons.

Everything. That is why he was Vice President and not President. He's the runner up in everything. The bronze medal winner in Olympics. He's a loser.

Pam Bondi said nothing that was damaging to the case. Trying to create a scenario to justify abusing power doesn't just make the abuse of power go away. Withholding money to create an investigation into a political opponent, no matter how "bad" you think they are, is an abuse of power. Just like the defense of "oh the money eventually got released 3 months later with no investigation into his political opponent being launched" doesn't make the abuse of power go away.

Unlike past presidents, Trump's approval rating has never surpassed his disapproval rating. In fact, Trump's ratings overall are going to remain nearly the same during the impeachment process due to both sides being headstrong. It doesn't matter how much and how damning any evidence there is against Trump, his followers will always follow. That's what they do.

...and this is a misrepresentation of what was expressed. My comment above ties in with this, in that people are disinterested because they feel the outcome will be the same regardless of whether or not they watch. Both sides feel that members of the senate will vote party lines, and Trump will not be removed from office. It's why I've stopped watching most of the show, I already know the ending.

"Selling a book" isn't enough to discredit a career politician like John Bolton. I'm sure you and the GOP will try to run that line into the ground starting an hour ago, but it doesn't matter. The guy took notes of all of his conversations in the WH, before he even knew he was gonna be on the street writing a book.


Didn't you and the left say for years he was a war monger and was a horrible person? Now all of a sudden he is the messiah.

The left needs to get it's ***together.

He is a warmonger and his policy beliefs were terrible for this country. But even he had the common sense to want nothing to do with Giulani and his drug deal. Its gonna be fun to see him testify. Great job Slore, you once again failed to make a point.
