They include over 127 communications with Russian operatives during the 2016 campaign, at least ten instances of obstruction of justice, multiple cases of financial and tax fraud, and much more. Many of these criminal breaches were spelled out in the report by special counsel Robert Mueller. And even <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=41726\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Fox News has stated<\/a><\/strong> unequivocally that there is evidence of both collusion and obstruction.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/Pix\/Trump\/trump-media-scrum-2.jpg\" alt=\"Donald Trump\" width=\"550\" height=\"296\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-38193\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/posts\/2778385175509593\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/Pix\/Advs\/fb-share-tn.jpg\" width=\"274\" height=\"20\" class=\"aligncenter\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, it seems that Trump commits new crimes everyday. And the startling part of that is that he often admits on television. Which is precisely what happened on Tuesday morning during one of his now infamous helicopter press conferences. There were many absurdities and lies during this live mental breakdown, but on a couple of occasions Trump actually incriminated himself as something of a dictator and\/or traitor.<\/p>\n<p>Both of these confessions involved Trump revealing that he has been secretly engaging in foreign policy affairs and making agreements that have not been vetted, ratified, or even seen by Congress. What&#8217;s more, he still refuses to disclose the substance of these agreements to anyone. Take for instance his declaration of a secretly negotiated agreement with Mexico. In a dramatic moment, Trump pulled a single piece of paper from his pocket and said&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;That&#8217;s the agreement that everybody says I don&#8217;t have. <em>[Reporter asks to see it]<\/em> No, because I&#8217;m gonna let Mexico do the announcement at the right time. But here&#8217;s the agreement. It&#8217;s a very simple agreement.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Pres.

It&#8217;s because Mexico said so, along with multi-sourced reporting that the terms Trump is celebrating were actually <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=41744\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">negotiated months ago<\/a><\/strong>. It&#8217;s also highly suspicious that Trump just happened to be carrying this alleged agreement with him on his way to his helicopter. not to mention that one piece of paper hardly represents what would have to be a complex treaty.<\/p>\n<p>The second item was Trump&#8217;s disclosure that he had just received another love letter from Kim Jong Un. This time he didn&#8217;t produce a paper prop as proof of the correspondence, but he was clearly moved:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;I just received a beautiful letter from Kim Jong Un. I can&#8217;t show you the letter obviously. But it was a very personal, very warm, very nice letter. I appreciate it.

After all, he is merely our representative, not a king. If he is getting letters from hostile foreign leaders, they are part of the public record of the Office of the President, not his personal stash.<\/p>\n<p>By admitting that he is conducting these negotiations in secret, and committing the nation to agreements that haven&#8217;t been seen by anyone but him, Trump is confessing to yet another set of impeachable offenses. He doesn&#8217;t have the authority to negotiate in that capacity, nor to obligate the nation to the terms of an undisclosed agreement. Congress needs to put an end to this tyrannical behavior. And the only way to do that is by including these offenses in the Articles of Impeachment that they should already be drafting.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><strong>How Fox News Deceives and Controls Their Flock:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00QSSMOES\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B00QSSMOES&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=newscorpsecom-20&#038;linkId=TLI6JC2OYE22MUTS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><br \/>\nAvailable now at Amazon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is already an abundance of evidence that Donald Trump has broken numerous laws that warrant, at the very least, an impeachment inquiry.
