    Out of the 53 Republican senators in the chamber today, 43 voted for the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 that included the Ukraine funding.http://bit.ly/37WWhec

        The impeachment managers could have and should have emphasized to those 43 senators, “_You_ voted to authorize and appropriate those funds. That is -_your_ power as a senator under our Constitutional system. The president ignored the law you passed.”http://bit.ly/37WWhec

        "The president had the opportunity to veto that legislation, and he did not. The president had the opportunity to delay the funds legally and openly under the Impoundment Control Act. He did not do that.”http://bit.ly/37WWhec

        That presidential signature has to mean something; if signing a bill into law doesn’t represent an acceptance that what is in the legislation will become law, what does it mean? If a president defies a law that he signed into law, why should anyone obey?http://bit.ly/37WWhec

        Page 132 of the bill, right there in black and white, $250 million. There is no asterisk, no caveat, no indication that this funding is optional. Congress did not mumble, stutter, or have any lack of clarity in what the law required. http://bit.ly/37WWhec pic.twitter.com/Y3odnPLhPP

        If the president does not distribute funds that have been authorized and appropriated by Congress and chooses to simply ignore the law that is passed, then nothing Congress does has any meaning. All laws and appropriations become suggestions.http://bit.ly/37WWhec
