Its something weve said all the time. The weakest, the thinnest, the fastest in u. S. History. Schumer admitted trying to ask for more witnesses that what happened over here was wrong. Now we have the own speaker of the house who is so embarrassed that she add mitsz the failure of this impeachment that she will not even send it to the senate. So embarrassed that i watched in her press conference she wouldnt even take your questions. That is not a good legacy to have. Shes admitting defeat by not sending it, by refusing to send the impeachment over, she knows this outcome is not good. She knows the facts are not there. Theres no basis for it. At the end of the day the American Public needs to move on. So with that, let me open it up for questions. Yes .

It makes it important for us to mendacity,legality, deception and the exerci
As secretaryesper stated, we havent defeated isis. Have you found that tweet . Did you find that tweet to be helpful . Im not sure which tweet youre talking about. Saying that the president made a decision on that between the secretary and i is not true. He tweeted out that we were going to remove troops from syria. You were both aware that he was going to make that tweet . The sequencing, im not exactly clear which tweet youre talking about. There are most recent tweet when he said he was going to remove the tweets from syria. Not a month ago when he said he was going to that. Not when secretary mattis resigned. Im talking about the one after that. When we pulled troops out . When we pulled troops out. I believe that tweet happened after we talked. Im in the sure. I can go back and check. My point is this.
