re: Whistleblower(?) Bill Taylor has ties with Burisma & with McCain/Steele Dossier

Sorry, I should have said "there is no legitimate reason", you are right.

As I have said before, I think that, when taken as a whole, the evidence that pressure was being applied to Ukraine for a reason that COULD have been improper is reasonable enough that it bears investigating.

Do I think the fact that the House took up this investigation at all is directly tied to the fact that there is a Democratic majority currently? Of course, which is sad on its' own.

Do I think it should be done the way it is being done? No.

Do I think that the providence and legitimacy of the complaint need to be investigated with the same vigor. Yes of course.

Do I think that the complaint (not the investigation) was some sort of conspiracy perpetrated by the deep state and Democrats? No, I think they spoke up because they felt that what was occurring is improper, whether they are right doesn't poison their intent. However, I do not understand why a seasoned intelligence official would knowingly throw the legitimacy of their complaint in jeopardy by not following the proper WB procedures by contacting Schiff's office first. So that needs to be investigated as well.

Do I think they are going to be able to PROVE that the desire for the investigation is for use in the 2020 election, and not some other legitimate purpose? Not unless Trump himself comes out and says it.

Do I think that claims that Biden targeted Shokin because of a Burisma investigation, and not because he was failing to prosecute corruption should be investigated as well? Absolutely.


I am not some leftist progressive. I want our elected officials to be act in the best interest of the country, and follow the laws they swear to uphold. Do I like Trump? No not, particularly, but no more than I dislike Pelosi, or Schumer, Hillary, McConnell, or Bernie.

They are all terrible. All I want is as much of the truth as we can get.
