I have a complaint about this whole impeachment thing. How is it Comey was recommended for prosecution by the I.G. and the DOJ refused to prosecute? The excuse was that Comey, the top of the FBI may not have known he was in violation of the law. The DOJ (Bill Barr) said it all goes to intent. Did Comey knowingly or intentionally intend to break the law? I
If you believe the top guy at the FBI did not know what he was doing that may be worse. So, he is either an idiot that should never have been in charge of the FBI or he is guilty as sin.
Shouldn’t the same thing be said about Trump? Did President Trump think he was breaking the law by asking the newly elected Ukraine President to investigate corruption? Remember, Trump is not a creature of Washington Swamp. He is a business guy with no legal training. Shouldn’t he be given more of a benefit of the doubt than Comey?
Is it right to say we cannot investigate Biden’s corruption because he is a candidate for President? If you hold that position then it is wrong to have investigated Trump on Russian collusion before and after the election. What kind of sense does any of this make? I just can’t square this circle, can you?

Ignorance of the law is never an excuse. Intent is not a factor in if a law id]s broken or not. Of course Biden should be investigated, but not at the business end of a gun. My understnding of the complaint is not that Trump is having Biden’s son investigated but because he is extorting the investigation by withholding the foriegn aid Ukraine needs. Now the President is asking other countries if the have any dirt on Biden! But President Trump is abusing his power of office by asking for other countries to dig up dirt on his political opponents.… Read more »
Note: This was sent in and I posted it. There is (as usual) a lot to unpack from your comment. 1. No, ignorance is not an excuse under the law. It can be a mitigating consideration. However, they let Comey off because they could not prove intent. Shouldn’t the same be given to Trump? 2. Your understanding is not correct on the purpose of withholding foreign aid. It is contradicted by the President of Ukraine, Trump and others. However, you are correct that some in Trump’s administration were also confused about this issue. Not blaming you, just pointing out that… Read more »
