In his interview with Cuck Wallace, Steve Scalise said that the Aid Package Law stated that President Trump had to ensure corruption was being rooted out BEFORE any tax payer money was sent to any shite holes. If that is true, sounds like President Trump had a lot of flexibility in negotiations. So what is the issue?

Regardless, I think the better question is, why in the F**K are we sending Ukraine half a billion of our money? Who cares about them?

The issue is that he is asking for an investigation into allegations that an American Vice President acted corruptly. No allegations that Ukrainian officials were complicit. No allegation against the Ukraine government at all

Here's the letter certifying that sufficient progress had been made to release the aid btw. LINK

The short answer is so that Russia doesn't invade and take over Ukraine.

This is interesting because as we all know Trump has been accused many times of being a Russian Agent or sympathizer. I would love for someone to explain why a "Russian Agent" would give defensive aid to Ukraine?

FIFY. Outside of humanitarian aid (and even that is questionable since it usually ends up lining some dictator's pockets).

It wasn't an allegation, it was a FACT THAT HE BRAGGED ABOUT!

And it was a FACT, a fact that was so serious that the Odumbf*ck administration briefed and PREPPED Odumbf*ck's hand picked ambassador about prior to her confirmation hearings.

Anyone with this stance should be wanting OBAMA and his cabal to be brought before the nation and forced to explain their susequience to RUSSIA allowing them to seize the Crimea while reneging on their agreement with Ukraine to defend them from such an invasion - and then not providing them with the 'lethal' aid promised in order for them to give up their own defensive forces.

He bragged about a foreign policy win that had enjoyed bipartisan and international support.

Then Parnas, Fruman, DiGenova, Toensing, Solomon, and Rudy Giuliani went to work trying to make it smoke.

shite man. That really is a problem. investigating alleged corruption of a former dem VP is the real issue.

You must not look into Obama admin corruption, at all.

Trump had every right to protect the American interests jowever he saw fit. Its logical if Biden or his son acted improperly there would ahv ehad to be complicity by Ukraine officials. Biden himself admitted a quid pro quo.

If Trump had inquired about anyone else there would be no impeachment process ( at least for this, but no doubt the Democrats would craft something). However, at the tim eof the phone call Trump and Biden were not engaged in any policial race so the whole premise he was seeking dirt on a political rival fails. Biden is curently a political rival of othe rDemocrats and likely will not be matcheed against Trump next year as he is fading fast.

Biden was the clear favorite for the Dem nominee in July/August

So, why did he have to lie about it so many times?

At first, he didn't even know that his son was on the board. THEN, well, he "barely" knew and they NEVER discussed it -- until his son admitted they discussed it. Then, we're told that SEVERAL people told the "office of the Vice President" about it and expressed concerns.

THEN, we're told that Yovanovitch was actually PREPPED on it before her confirmation hearings.


Are you really STUPID ENOUGH to think that everything the Biden's did in the Ukraine was all on the up-and-up?

Do you really think that it's plausible that some corrupt oligarch who runs a corrupt energy company would hire the cokehead, sister-in-law-f*cking, Navy druggie failout to sit on a board of directors for a company and industry that he knew NOTHING ABOUT (and didn't even speak the f*cking language) to the turn of $85K/MONTH -- and that there's NOTHING TO SEE HERE?

Are you REALLY THAT F*CKING STUPID???

It STINKS to high f*cking heaven.

How in the world could Yovanovitch say with a straight face that she was there to help root out corruption when Biden's complete LOSER of a son is participating in that corruption -- AND SHE KNEW ABOUT IT BEFORE SHE EVER ACCEPTED THE GIG?


And, you want to impeach the President because he merely wants that investigated?

If so, you are a F*CKING RETARD.

The bmy thief is a hack. Better to ignore him or if you know what agency he works for let them know he is stealing taxpayer money.

Are you surprised that people with influential last names get placed into powerful and/or high paying positions? Irrespective of political beliefs the elite have always looked out for themselves.

It's funny:
The prosecutor who Biden allegedly had fired for corrupt reasons (Shokin) says in his affidavit that he heard for the first time in Solomon's Ukraine piece that Biden bragged about having him fired. And that “This is when it became clear that the real reason for my dismissal was my actions regarding … Burisma and Biden’s personal interest in that company,”
