Oct 31, 2019 at 3:02 comment added Yozarian22 @phoog Congress decides what money to allocate, but executive cuts the actual checks. If they held it too long there would be controversy, but it's not clear how that would resolve. rollcall.com/news/…
Oct 26, 2019 at 1:31 comment added phoog "As long as he remains president, he can still withhold that aid money at any time": is that actually true? Is the distribution of foreign aid left to the discretion of the executive, or is it dictated by the legislature?
Oct 24, 2019 at 8:51 comment added Dohn Joe Zelensky would be a first-hand source, however, he wouldn't be an objective one. If Zelensky declared, that he was being pressured, then he has little hope to be met with any favour in future interactions with a Trump-led US government. If Zelensky declared, he wasn't being pressured, then people might still be suspecting that he is withholding information to save his working relation with the Trump government.
