The answer is no jpak Nov 2019 #1
Presidential Impoundment Act of 1974 says no. lastlib Nov 2019 #2
Wasn't an "Impoundment" issue...Or Chairman Schiff would have hammered that. AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #6
Chairman Schiff definitely hammered that Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #40
Not ONE link to Chr. Schiff....you tried...E for effort. AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #42
obviously you didn't read one linked source Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #43
I always read links AncientGeezer Dec 2019 #44
There is no such thing as a simple question for Republicans PJMcK Nov 2019 #3
Yes... he can FBaggins Nov 2019 #4
Was this a legitimate purpose malaise Nov 2019 #5
I assume not... but it makes the argument circular FBaggins Nov 2019 #7
Thanks malaise Nov 2019 #8
he must notify Congress. he didn't. Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #9
No ..not really. Chairman Schiff would have made that an issue. AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #10
yes, it's really the law ... Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #12
It wasn't a recission....and that's what your citation relies on AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #15
anything over 45 days would be a recission, a changing of the 'contract' Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #16
No....recission has a well defined leagal definition AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #21
I don't know about "leagal" but your beliefs do not trump the law Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #22
You haven't cited applicable Law...there was no recission...and a spelling mistake, really? AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #26
ok, so I'm not a comedian, Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #29
try reading the following, signed by Schiff, Engel, Cummings ... Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #27
Now it's deferrals...vastly different than recission..where are you going to land the goal posts? AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #28
the goalposts have not changed ... Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #30
He didn't move the goalposts. That language is in the provision he cited StarfishSaver Nov 2019 #34
From recission to deferrals.....vastly different definitions ....you know that. AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #35
Not anywhere near the Law....we didn't have a contract with Ukraine AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #24
the contract is between the legislature and the executive Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #31
You're more fun than than the law allows... AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #32
you might want to review Laura Cooper's deposition Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #33
You may want to follow Chairman Schiff's lead.... not your made up path. AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #36
I've cited Schiff, the House, the law, reports, a deposition Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #37
What you cited is a letter....that had no bearing on Shiffs proceedings AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #38
um, the letter was signed by Schiff and laws are not "legally irrelevant" Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #39
You gave it a shot...a crap ton of links AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #41
Not quite FBaggins Nov 2019 #11
no. see above. Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #13
There are 14 above your post....which? AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #17
link... Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #19
Has no legal bearing....there was no recission AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #20
may you be happy in your beliefs Hermit-The-Prog Nov 2019 #23
I'm happy in the facts...dumpster is a scumbag(fact)... but there was no recission, also a fact AncientGeezer Nov 2019 #25
