Another whopping lie
Schiff says Obama would have been impeached if he asked Russia to investigate Mitt Romney
Sure he would. So if Schiffless is telling the truth (something he's incapable of doing) and forgetting about Romney for a moment, how come Barry didn't get impeached over the myriad of scandals he was involved in. I won't get into the weeds touching on all of them but just imagine this. Trump calls the IRS and tells them to target liberal groups. Or at the very least, he knew full well what was going on at the IRS. The perpetrators who committed the crime plead the 5th and not one went to jail. Along with that think of the astronomical odds 7 computers simultaneously crashed at the IRS... its beyond comprehension! Then suddenly in Clintonesque fashion critical emails into the investigation are deleted.
I can see Trump claiming on FOX news, "The first time I heard about the IRS scandal was when I heard it on the news." I'm sure Schiff would have said...case closed right?

Lead House impeachment manager Adam Schiff answers a question from Senators Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz at the Senate trial of President Trump.
House manager Adam Schiff, D-Calif., Wednesday said former President Obamawould have been impeached if he had done what President Trump has been charged with in the first article of impeachment.
Schiff was responding to Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz’s argument that a president can’t be impeached for a quid pro quo if he believes it’s in the country’s interest.
Schiff called the defense’s example of Obama being caught on a hot mic in 2012 telling former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev he would have more “flexibility” after his re-election a “poor analogy” and “whataboutism.”
“But let’s use that analogy and make it more comparable to today and see how you feel about this scenario,” Schiff told the Senate.
He suggested the hypothetical example of Obama telling Medvedev, “I know you don’t want me to send this money to Ukraine cause they’re fighting and killing your people. I want you to do me a favor though,” Schiff said, echoing wording in Trump’s July call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in which he allegedly asked him to investigate the Bidens.
“I want you to do an investigation of Mitt Romney and I want you to announce you found dirt on Mitt Romney,” Schiff continued with his hypothetical. “And if you’re willing to do that quid pro quo, I won’t give Ukraine the money to fight you on the front line. “
Schiff then asked senators if there is any question Obama would have been impeached for that kind of conduct.
“That’s the parallel here,” he said.
Sens. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Ted Cruz, R-Texas, asked in the hypothetical whether or not Obama would have had the authority to seek an investigation into Romney's son if he had evidence he was earning $1 million a year from a corrupt Russian company and Romney had acted to benefit that company.
Republicans have alleged former Vice President Joe Biden used his White House position to help his son, Hunter, while he served on the board of a Ukrainian oil company, but no evidence of wrongdoing has been found.
Schiff answered that “for a president to withhold military aid from an ally [or] to benefit an adversary to target their political opponent is wrong and corrupt. Period. End of story.”
He added that “rationalizing” that conduct is impeachable.
Earlier, Dershowitz argued that even if there was a quid pro quo by withholding $391 million in military aid to Ukraine it wouldn’t matter because “if a president does something which he believes will help him get elected in the public interest, that cannot be the kind of quid pro quo that results in impeachment.”

Perhaps Putin has been hanging with Khamenei a little too long
Supreme Ruler Putin? Kremlin Non-Committal on Proposed New Job Description
Trump accused of 'American Collusion' in the Russian election process.
MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Kremlin said on Wednesday that President Vladimir Putin had no view on a proposal that would see his job description change to Supreme Ruler from head of state after a government commission said it was considering the idea.
The title change is one of an array of possible alterations to the Russian constitution put forward by members of a government commission set up after Putin earlier this month said he wanted to change the Russian basic law.
Putin, 67, proposed his own constitutional changes, which were widely seen as giving him scope to retain influence once his current presidential term expires in 2024, though he has said he does not favor the Soviet-era practice of having leaders for life who die in office.
The overhaul, which triggered a change in government, also cemented Putin's control of the transition process and was seen by some as an attempt to reduce intra-clan infighting between now and 2024, while allowing Putin to show he is responding to public discontent after years of belt-tightening.
The State Duma, the Russian lower house of parliament, has already given its backing to his reforms in a preliminary vote. The government commission is considering further possible changes.
"There are... some very curious proposals among those put forward. For instance, they proposed renaming the position of head of state to 'Supreme leader'," Pavel Krasheninnikov, the government commission's co-chair, told the Rossiiskaya Gazeta government newspaper.
When asked about the idea on Wednesday, the Kremlin was non-committal, calling it a "new initiative" and one of various proposals that may or may not be implemented.
"Right now all this is at the discussion stage," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters. "President Putin has no view on this."
Other proposals include formally recognizing Russia's status as a "victorious power" in World War Two and recognizing Orthodox Christianity as the country's main religion, the Kommersant newspaper reported.
"Naturally some (of the proposals) will be eliminated, some will be accepted and from this the commission's sought-after result will appear," Peskov told reporters.
Russia's TASS news agency said Vladimir Zhironovsky, leader of the nationalist pro-Kremlin LDPR party, had suggested the president be known as the Supreme Leader many times in order to move away from job titles derived from foreign languages.

Hunter Biden has agreed to pay child support to the Arkansas woman he fathered a child with while he was also dating his brother's widow
A real class guy just like his old man!
Wasn't he the scuzzbucket who swore up, down, and sideways emphatically denying he was the father? So if he lied about something so provable just imagine what else he's lying about when it comes to Ukraine and China.
-------------------------
Hunter Biden on Monday agreed to pay child support to the mother of his lovechild in Arkansas.
Linden Alexis Roberts gave birth to Biden's child in August 2018, but took legal action in May 2019 after Biden stopped paying child support.
A DNA test in November 2019 identified Biden as the father. Biden had denied being the father in initial court filings.
Biden agreed to backpay child support to November 2018. The amount is not know, and was redacted in the court order on Monday.
Hunter Biden has agreed to pay child support to the mother of his child in Arkansas, and backpay 13 months of missed installments.
An agreed order from Independence County Circuit Court released on Monday said Biden had agreed to a deal with Lunden Alexis Roberts, who mothered Biden's child in August 2018.
Judge Holly Meyer, however, noted that she couldn't narrow down what was appropriate for Biden to pay in child support "based off the defendant's income" because she "lacks sufficient information."
Biden will backpay child support to November 2018 and pay Roberts' legal fees, according to the order. He will pay child support from February 1, 2020, and on the first of every month.
Roberts first filed a petition for paternity and child support in May 2019, and requested that Biden pay healthcare for the child.
Legal council for Roberts said that she only filed because of Biden's "refusal to continue to support his child."
She asked for $11,058 in fees, and filed a petition for paternity and child support, court filings show.
In November 2019, a DNA test confirmed "with scientific certainty" that Biden was the father.
Biden had previously denied being the father in an August 2019 court filing. He is yet to comment publicly.
"He's doing the right thing by finally stepping up and paying what he should've been paying," Roberts' attorney, Clinton Lancaster told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
"He's going to begin paying monthly child support. He's going to pay retroactive child support back to November of 2018. And he's going to pay attorney's fees and costs."
Roberts met Biden while studying at George Washington University, her lawyers said.
After Roberts appealed to the court, Biden is to face contempt proceedings after he failed to give the courts relevant financial documents.
His case will be heard on March 1, unless he provides the information, according to the court order.
Biden's relationship history is complicated. In 2017, he finalized his divorce from Kathleen Biden, his wife of more than 20 years, after she accused him of spending money on drugs and strip clubs.
That year, he started dating Hallie Biden, his brother Beau's widow and the mother of his niece and nephew.
Additionally:
He was listed as a customer of Ashley Madison when the pro-adultery site was hacked in 2015.
He married a South African woman named Melissa Cohen, who is 17 years younger than him. Married her like 10 days after they met. She is also pregnant.
Kicked out of the Navy after getting two waivers...1) For being over 42 years old, 2) Past drug-related conviction, and then failing a drug test for cocaine. If his old man wasn't VP think he would have gotten in?
Like I said a class act.
