If the rules allow Bloomy to buy the vote, so be it. Don't get your panties in wad about it.

But I do not agree that someone paid someone to get that book to #1. Now if it were an Obammy book, then yea, that's the only way it would hit that threshold.

Are you talking about the 100 BILLION that the Mormon church has...somewhere? Yep - that would be his higher calling but Romney likes to throw in "faith" to fool the sheep.

And trumps moral calling is this



I'll always bet on where trump puts his faith.

My old, dusty, copy of the US Constitution must be out of date, 'cause I'm not finding anything in Article I Section VII paragraph 1 that says the House must pass legislation to allow Mexico to pay for and supply 25,000 Mexican National Guards to guard the US/Mexico boarder or for Mexico to guard their own Southern boarder. Was their another copy of the US Constitution floating around??

Maybe Donald's copy of the Constitution granting him the right to interfere in the sentencing of one of his many criminal cronies, while ignoring the duty of the President to faithfully execute the law:

https://www.factcheck.org/2020/02/roger-stones-crimes/

Prosecutors also presented evidence that showed how Stone threatened and bullied Credico in an attempt to prevent him from testifying before the House committee and contradicting Stone’s earlier committee testimony. Credico testified that Stone threatened him and used references to the “Godfather” movies to pressure him not to talk to Congress...

Title 18, Section 1512(b)(1) makes it illegal to “influence, delay, or prevent the testimony of any person in an official proceeding.” Witness tampering is the most serious of the charges, carrying a penalty of no more than 20 years.

In the Feb. 10 sentencing memo, under the heading of “The Seriousness of the Offense,” the prosecutors quote the Federalist Papers on the danger of foreign interference in U.S. elections.

“Foreign election interference is the ‘most deadly adversar[y] of republican government.’ Federalist Papers No. 68 (Hamilton),” the memo says. “Investigations into election interference concern our national security, the integrity of our democratic processes, and the enforcement of our nation’s criminal laws. These are issues of paramount concern to every citizen of the United States. Obstructing such critical investigations thus strikes at the very heart of our American democracy.”

Article II, Section 3 of the U.S Constitution is known as the faithfully executed clause. It provides that the President should take care that the laws are carried out faithfully.

Republicans: defending strict construction of the Constitution when it suits their purposes, while gleefully ignoring it when it doesn't.

They learned that from Bill Clinton and his cronies. My how the worm turns.

Bill Clinton lied about a blow job that had no bearing on Whitewater, Vince Foster, Benghazi, or any of the other bizarre conspiracy theories cooked up by Republicans. None of which even approach the gravity of seeking foreign interference to rig a U.S. election.

But your weak attempt to shift the blame is duly noted.

This is not an end to the means.
The means being AI SectVII para1.
The end would be the Bill.

So, where is the Bill stating that Mexico is paying for the Wall?


No where what you listed is the Bill
.
Article 1 - The Legislative Branch
Section 7 - Revenue Bills, Legislative Process, Presidential Veto
<<Back | Table of Contents | Next>>

All bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.

Every Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States; If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law. But in all such Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by Yeas and Nays, and the Names of the Persons voting for and against the Bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively. If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law.
