Impeachment 'whistleblower' was in loop of Biden-Ukraine scheme Trump wanted investigated

Link to article…
The "whistleblower" who sparked Donald Trump’s first impeachment was deeply involved in the political maneuverings behind Biden-family business schemes in Ukraine that Trump wanted probed, newly obtained emails from former Vice President Joe Biden’s office reveal.
In 2019, then-National Intelligence Council analyst Eric Ciaramella touched off a political firestorm when he anonymously accused Trump of linking military aid for Ukraine to a demand for an investigation into alleged Biden corruption in that country.
But four years earlier, while working as a national security analyst attached to then-Vice President Joe Biden’s office, Ciaramella was a close adviser when Biden threatened to cut off U.S. aid to Ukraine unless it fired its top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who was investigating Ukraine-based Burisma Holdings. At the time, the corruption-riddled energy giant was paying Biden’s son Hunter millions of dollars.
Ciaramella’s role – including high-level discussions with top Biden aides and Ukrainian prosecutors – is only now coming to light thanks to the recent release of White House emails and photos from the National Archives.
The emails show Ciaramella expressed shock – “Yikes” is what he wrote – at Biden’s move to withhold the $1 billion in aid from Kyiv, which represented a sudden shift in U.S. policy. They also show he was drawn into White House communications over how to control adverse publicity from Hunter taking a lucrative seat on Burisma’s board.

This seems significant. Still haven’t heard the story on the news.

But we were told that if we stared into the bathroom mirror as the lights were off and said his name 3 times, the ghost of Ronald Reagan would appear add $3T to the national debt.

The irony being that Biden admitted on tv that he did the same thing to shut the investigation down.

You won’t. The Ministry of Information is working overtime to rewrite the story to either blame Trump, erase it, or discredit the story altogether.

Just listening to the calls of Biden and the Ukraine president should put any politician in jail. I mean he even physically threatened him in one called about shutting the bank down before Trump came looking.

My point has been on Peach Mint I is that while Ciaramella was a willing operative for the Democrats ,Trump's personnel team was incompetent in allowing so many holdover from the Obama/Biden administration to still be in the White House even in 2019.
Also Trump was STUPID to to mention this request out loud on a line where he and his aides had to know there were neighbors listening in and preserving it . Trump should have said that there were some details that should be discussed going forward and that his people would go to Kiev and meet with Zelensky and his people to work out the details.
Then go and get the dirt on Biden and all the other politicians who were using the place as a honey hole.
That was amateur hour at the highest.....and it began the process of turning me off to Trump because the guy cannot hold his tongue and can't stop trying to wave his dick around.....so he trips over it.

"Since I have TDS, I'm going to deflect from the actions of the democrats and shift the blame to Trump."
You are seriously blaming the President for using a phone to talk to foreign leaders instead of personally sending a delegation. Let's blame Trump for talking in English while we're at it. He should have created his own language and personally taught it to every world leader so the IC wouldn't know what he is saying.
It would be great if you people would hold all politicians to the same ludicrous standard you hold Trump. Hell, just start by holding democrats accountable for breaking the law. That's less important to you than attacking Trump for some reason.
People like you also love to claim that the Republican party is being divided, but you still can't figure out why.
