These new documents highlight Trump's direct role in withholding military aid, and the Administration’s efforts to hide it from Congress.

We subpoenaed them, and they refused. Now we know why.

A fair Senate trial requires all documents be produced.

What else is Trump hiding?
Read my full statement on these new documents detailing President Trump's decision to withhold military aid to Ukraine:

It seems the President has developed a sudden concern for the homelessness crisis. I'm glad he wants to help.

Instead of floating nonsensical and possibly illegal concepts about rounding up people experiencing homelessness and warehousing them, here are some other suggestions:
One obvious place to start: stop making the problem worse by asking for billions in cuts to @HUDgov's affordable housing programs, and to safety net programs that can make the difference for families living on the edge.
Rather than launching partisan attacks on California cities, Trump could learn from leaders and community groups on the front lines of addressing homelessness.

In fact, Los Angeles recently approved the two largest anti-homelessness ballot measures in American history.

I just visited a shelter for separated children in California. The kids had a place to sleep, food to eat, a school to attend and medical care. Everything, but what they need — their parents.

We must reunite these families:

facebook.com/RepAdamSchiff/…
The shelter has 16 kids separated from their parents. Most had been in the facility for weeks. The parents of 2 of them had already been deported. HHS has identified all the parents, but 2 kids had yet to speak to their parent, because the detention centers are disorganized.
For children whose parents have been deported, the family can decide to seek to place the child with a relative in the U.S. or to have the child deported. But if placed with an undocumented relative, that child could face a second separation. It’s unconscionable.

Last year, the bipartisan leadership of the House Intel Committee made a promise to the American people to publicly release the Facebook advertisements used by the Kremlin-linked Internet Research Agency.

Today, the Minority is fulfilling that promise: democrats-intelligence.house.gov/facebook-ads/
Russia sought to weaponize social media to drive a wedge between Americans, and in an attempt to sway the 2016 election. They created fake accounts, pages and communities to push divisive online content and videos, and to mobilize real Americans.

Here's how:
Russia sought to divide us by our race, our country of origin, our religion, and our politics. They attempted to hijack legitimate events meant to do good – teaching self-defense, providing legal aid – as well as those events meant to widen a rift.

Here's just some examples:

US President Donald #Trump is being impeached for briefly withholding military aid to #Ukraine, but it should never have been provided in the first place. Here are just some of the reasons why it should be withheld. #withholdwar
#1 - #Ukrainian tanks rolled into Mariupol on the 9th of May (2014), leaving dead bodies and a burning police station in their wake. “Rocket-propelled grenades fired in city centre streets, shooting, where yesterday people were shopping.”
#2 - An airstrike killed “5 women… 3 men,” in the centre of Lugansk on the 2nd of June. #Ukraine denied the #airstrike and blamed a bomb from inside the admin building and a heat-seeking rocket that targeted the air conditioner.

Tim Morrison is a top White House official who raised concerns over #Trump manipulating #Ukraine for personal advantage. Trump ordered him to defy Congress & not testify against him in the #ImpeachmentInquiry, so Morrison quit his job. He is being deposed today.
Today, #TimMorrison testified that Trump's EU Ambassador, Gordon Sondland, told #Ukraine that military aid was conditioned on Ukraine publicly announcing an investigation into the Bidens (quid pro quo). He also confirmed the accuracy of Ambassador to Ukraine Taylor's testimony.
Put into the full context of Morrison's testimony, his statement that he did not think anything illegal was happening during the June 25th phone call is because he was NOT YET AWARE at that time that Trump was withholding military aid until the Bidens were investigated.

#Trump has not lost his marbles entirely. I have a theory as to why he wants to buy it
#'Greenland is not for sale': citizens decry Trump's interest in purchasing island theguardian.com/world/2019/aug…
He wants to hide the uncomfortable truth about #climatechange and sea level rises, so business will be conducted as usual and hell to the future
marketwatch.com/story/nasa-sci…
The situation there is bad. A flavour of what is to come to us all if we do not halt the worst effects of #climatechange #ClimateEmergency

#Trump is going to speak in the Rose Garden any minute now. Is he going to lie a bunch about reopening the government? Is he just going to yell "no collusion! witch hunt!" over and over again? Both? Stay tuned!
Oh hell, #Trump is going to take questions too. This is going to be a sh*tshow.
#Trump is running about a half hour late. I wonder if he's spent this whole time on the phone with Ann Coulter, begging for permission to cave?
