I take it you're lol'ing because other than peoples' assertions and opinions that such was the case, there's no actual direct evidence of that.

But if you feel like as such about that assertion, how does it make sense not to feel same about the linchpin allegation of expectation of personal gain against political opponent, which also is only supported by assertions and opinions, there being no actual direct evidence??

The Biden shenanigans in Ukraine is probably why Obama has been less than enthusiastic that his former VP is running.

Looks pretty legit to me, i.e. it isn't an opinion piece.
Of course it is. Everything Solomon wrote at the Hill was opinion. This is the byline on that very article:
quote:

By John Solomon, opinion contributor — 03/26/19
The views expressed by contributors are their own and not the view of The Hill.



Witnesses who testified in the House Hearings said that Solomon reporting was false.

"It was primarily non-truths and non-sequiturs,” said George Kent, a senior State Department official, in reference to a key Solomon article from March 2019.

Solomon later admitted that his March 2019 interview with Lutsenko had been set up by Parnas, the Ukrainian operative who was working with Giuliani to spread disinformation against Biden.

Solomon was fired by The Hill when his reporting was found to be fabricated.

That is as much a hard news reporting article as any hard news reporting article you will find on CNN or any of the others. It is not an opinion piece, and what I mean by opinion piece is editorializing.

Let me know where there is editorializing or opinion-giving in that article. There's a set of questions at the end that Solomon suggests the foregoing reporting raises, maybe that's "opinion" in that someone else may suggest a different set of questions, but that's certainly not going to deem it an "opinion piece" in my view.

Again, I suppose you could suggest that the reporting in the article is wholly fictitious, but I don't see myself going with that assertion.
