I created this on Oct. 14th, 2019. I am sure over time there will be more Evidence for these Acticles.

ABUSING POWER FOR PLITICAL GAIN - The Single most Dangerous threat to any Democratic System is that the Ruling Party will use its Governing Powers to entrench itself.

EVIDENCE:

1. The Ukraine Scandal is fundamentally about the President Abusing his Authority be wielding his Power over Foreign Policy as a Cudgel against his Domestic Opponents. The President is both Implicitly and Explicitly Trading the U.S. Government's Favor for Investigations intended to create Adverse Publicity for Americans who Trump wishes to Discredit.

2. During his Campaign, he Threatened to Impose Policies Harmful to Amazon in Retribution for Critical Coverage in the Washington Post. He has Pushed the Postmaster General to Double Rates on Amazon, and the Defense Department Held Up a $10 Billion Contract with Amazon, possible at his Request.

3. He has Ordered his Officials to Block the AT&T-Time Warner Merger as Punishment for CNN's Coverage of him.

MISHANDLING CLASSIFIED INFORMATION - As he does with many other Laws, the President enjoys Broad Immunity from Regulations on the Proper Handling of Classified Information, allowing him to take Action that would Result in Felony Convictions for other Federal Employees. President Trump Mishandling of Classified Information is Not merely Careless but a Danger to National Security.

EVIDENCE:

4. Trump has Habitually Communicated on a Smartphone highly Vulnerable to Foreign Espionage.

5-29. He has Reversed 25 Security-Clearance Denials, including for his Son-in-Law, who has Conducted Potential Compromising Business with Foreign Interests. We still don't know what Level of Security he has.

30. He has turned Mar-a-Lago into an Unsecured Second White House and once handled News of North Korea's Missile Launch in Public View.

31. He gave Russian Officials Sensitive Israeli Intelligence that Blew the Most Valuable Source of Information on External Plotting by the Islamic State, the Wall Street Journal Reported.

32. He Tweeted a High-Resolution Satellite Image of an Iranian Launch Site for the Sake of Boasting.

UNDERMING DULY ENACTED FEDERAL LAW - President Trump has Abused his Authority either by Distorting the Intent of Laws Passed by Congress or by Flouting them. He has Directly Ordered Subordinates to Violate the Law and has Promised Pardons in Advance, Enabling him and his Staff to Operate with Impunity. In these Actions, he has Undermined Congress's Constitutional Authority to make Laws.

EVIDENCE:

33. Having Failed o Secure Funding Authority for a Border Wall, President Trump Unilaterally Ordered Funds to be Moved from other Budget Accounts.

34. He has Undermined Regulations on Health Insurance under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Preventing Insurers from Charging Higher Rates to Customers with more Expensive Risk Profiles.

35. He has Abused Emergency Powers to Impose Tariffs, intended to Protect the Supply Chain in case of War, to Seize from Congress its Authority to Negotiate International Trade Agreements.

36-37. He has Ordered Border Agents to Illegally Block Asylum Seekers from Entering the Country and has Ordered other Aides to Violate Eminent-Domain Laws and Contracting Procedures in Building the Border Wall.

38-39. Twice Promising Immunity from Lawbreaking through Presidential Pardons.

OBSTRUCTION OF CONGRESS - The Executive Branch and Congress are Co-Equal. Each intended to Guard Usurpation of Authority by the Other. Trump has Refused to Acknowledge any Legitimate Oversite Function of Congress, insisting that because Congress has Political Motivations, it is Disqualified from it. His Actions and Rationale Strike at the Constitution's Design of using the Political Ambitions of the Elected Branches to Check One another.

EVIDENCE:

40. Trump has Refused to Abide by a Constitutional Demand to Release his Tax Returns, despite an Unambiguous Law Granting the House this Authority. His Lawyers have Flouted the Law on the Spurious Grounds that Subpoenas for his Tax Returns were issued to harass President Trump. to rummage through every aspect of his personal finances, his business and his family, and to ferret about for any material that might be used to cause him political damage. Trump's Lawyers have said No Authority can Investigate the President. Courts have said Otherwise.

41. He has Defended his Refusal to Accept Oversight on the Grounds that Members of Congress aren't Impartial People. The Democrats are trying to Win 2020.

42. The President has Declared that Impeachment is Illegal and should be Stopped in the Courts.

OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE - By virtue of his Control over the Federal Government's Investigative Apparatus, the President along with the Attorney General, is uniquely well positioned to Cover Up his Own Misconduct. Impeachment is the sole available Remedy for a President who uses his Powers of Office to Hold Himself Immune from Legal Accountability. In particular, the Pardon Power gives the President almost Unlimited Authority to Obstruct Investigations by providing him with a means to Induce the Silence of Co-Conspirators.

EVIDENCE:

43-52. The Muellar Report contains Ten Instances of President Trump engaging in Obstructive Acts. While none of those succeeded in stopping the Probe, Trump dangled Pardons and Induced his Co-Conspirators to Lie or Withhold Evidence from Investigators. Former Trump Lawyer Michael Cohen testified to Congress that Trump had Directed him to Lie to it about his Negotiations with the Russian Government during the Campaign to Secure a Lucrative Building Contract in Moscow. When Cohen stated his Willingness to Lie, Robert Costello, an Attorney who had worked with Rudy Giuliana, emailed Cohen assuring him he could sleep well tonight because he had Friends in High Places. Trump has Publicly Praised Witnesses in the Russia Investigation for Refusing to Cooperate.

53-60. Trump has Exercised his Pardon Power for a series of Republican Loyalists. Roger Stone said: The Special Counsel has Awesome Powers, as you know, but the President has even more Awesome Powers.

PROFITING FROM OFFICE - Federal Employees must follow Strict Rules to Prevent them from being Influenced by any Financial Conflict. Conflict-of-Interest Rules are less clear for a Sitting President because All Presidential Misconduct will be Resolved by either Re-Election or Impeachment. If Trump held any Position in the Federal Government below the Presidency, he would have been Fired for his obvious Conflicts. His Violations are so Gross and Blatant they merit Impeachment.

EVIDENCE:

61. He has Maintained Private Businesses, as Majority Owner, while holding Federal Office and Not putting his Interests into a Blind Trust. As President, the Constitution says he can Only have his Salary and No other Income, while in Office.

62. He made Decisions that Influence those Businesses.

63. Accepted Payments from Domestic and Foreign Governments and Entities who have Interests in his Policies. He also has bypassed Congress that are Required to Approve Each Foreign Gift or Monetary Value.

64. He has Openly signaled that these Entities can Gain his Favor by doing so.

65. He has Refused to Disclose his Interests, which would at least make Public which Entities are Paying him.
