Look, my friend. Just give it up. What do you want, a deposit slip? Your responses are what bluemonkeytri would attribute to an 'automaton'. Try reading this part below one more time. This isn't even disputed, not sure why you are still beating this drum.
How did the bottom line balloon from $1 million to $25 million? A separate senior aide told RCP it had nothing to do with the Grand Old Party: “It is absolutely true that the Pelosi ask was for tons more Kennedy Center money.” What about the Blunt staffer making the rounds on Capitol Hill? “The doula was a hack GOP staffer,” the aide argued. “But this was a Democratic baby all along.”
You claimed Democrats added it. You have provided no evidence of that, well you have provided an anonymous GOP staffer saying they did not do that after it has caused an uproar. Do you think that is a reliable source?
Not sure why I ever thought you would be receptive to facts that are widely known, but don't fit your preferred perceptions. I am done. You can have the last line.

So now you just declare someone saying something as “fact” and move on?
So when Trump said there was no quid pro quo, that is evidence of fact, even though many others, including his Chief of Staff, said there was one?
I see how this works.
So, you think it was the GOP that got funding for the Kennedy Center tacked on to the stimulus bill? Seriously?
As an FYI, better get ready for this one. If I had been in Trump's shoes, I would have
insisted on accountability of the money sent to Ukraine. This country was infested with corruption and the Bidens were right in the middle of it raking in millions of dollars. If I had been President, I would have wanted a full investigation of what role my own government played in the corruption including an investigation done by the Ukrainian government. The fact that one of the players involved with the corruption was a Vice President of the United States would have made it an imperative that a full investigation take place. At the time of the phone call, it was not a given that Biden would be any more than another candidate for the nomination. I also would have made it clear that I was not releasing any money until it was assured it would be allocated for the agreed upon purchases. If the roles were reversed, the Dems would have been jumping up on the moral high ground screaming graft, corruption, money laundering and anything else they could.

If you are a Canuck that engages in gratuitous bashing of the US, you are probably on my Iggy List. So, save your self a bunch of typing a response unless you also feel the need to gratuitously bash me. If so, have fun.
