    Like with "butter emails" and "benghazi",

    Biden/son "corruption" case is fabricated bull , slander, by Repugs and all The Usual Suspects in the rightwing hate media, to attack Trash's probably candidate.

    The real corruption is with Trash and his mafiya, with his corrupt capo Julie Annie working with even more corrupt Ukraine criminals.
    Boo, you would have credibility if you were actually able to admit when someone on "your side" did something shady. It might not have been illegal but Burisma in Ukraine and the Bank of China/BHR deals with Joe's crackhead son were clearly attempts to buy influence with Papa Joe whether it actually worked or not.

    influence peddling/seeking, quid pro quos, back scratching, insider info, cheating, fraud, back stabbing, bad faith, double-crossing is what make politics and business function. Apparently, hedge funds run almost completely on insider info.

    Whatever Hunter Biden did may be illegal, but illegality rules, OK,

    and has nothing to do with your boy Trash using taxpayer $100Ms to screw one of his political rivals.

    Sorry.
    Things DO NOT get a pass if you are ignorant AND President.
    If he knew exactly what he was doing with Ukraine, he had no clue about the possible consequences. Releasing and admitting that he had performed the act was the height of punching oneself in the face. He royally ed up. Just because he now has his party scrambling for him does not mean he is a brilliant strategist.

    you are overthinking it

    let me help you

    you MUST put your mindset to “how would a criminal think/how would a criminal approach it”

    anytime he commits his crimes/ ery


    he released his “transcript” for this reason;


    he scrubbed what he thought was the crime - directed his minions to hide/bury the really bad

    and

    released the least serious crime he committed

    he will hide the entire call (the entire 32 minutes) with the same fervor he hides his taxes


    in other words “the criminal did what criminals do when caught- he tried to cover up as best he could”


    none of this has anything to do with him just being incompetent or unaware of right and wrong
    he knew what he was doing was wrong

    this is why he had julie-yanni run a shadow foreign policy and this is why he bullied all the career professionals
    and got rid of the “bad apple” fiona hill

    pompeo had bullied the state dept and thought he could muscle his subordinates into staying silent to cover up the crimes
    but he didnt count on patriots standing up and honoring their oath

    Ivanka's china patents (for a company she closed) is the only thing I have heard of that was obviously questionable. Please tell me how they have made hundreds of millions off of being related to Trump

    Ukraine's military aid wasn't the only thing the Trump administration held up. Democrats want info

    Ukraine’s participation in the “generalized system of preferences” program,

    which allows developing nations to avoid import tariffs on some products,

    had been partially suspended by the Trump administration in 2017 due to concerns about digital piracy and intellectual property violations.

    Over the summer, Lighthizer recommended restoring Ukraine’s participation by one-third because the country had addressed some of the concerns that had led to its suspension.

    But then-national security adviser John Bolton warned him that Trump would reject the move,

    and Lighthizer withdrew the recommendation.

    After The Washington Post reported on that about-face, Wyden and Menendez followed up.

    They want to hear from Lighthizer about any discussions of U.S.-Ukraine trade he might have had with Trump or with Rudy Giuliani or Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland,

    One-third of the GSP benefits were restored to Ukraine just last week.

    Newly revealed Trump letter promises ‘unwavering’ support for Ukraine — as Giuliani was cooking up shakedown scheme

    President Donald Trump promised “unwavering” support to Ukraine —

    even as his attorney Rudy Giuliani was undertaking efforts to pressure the country’s newly elected president to investigate anti-Democratic conspiracy theories.


    The U.S. president sent a letter May 29 that

    contradicted his back-channel efforts to hold military aid and a White House visit

    as leverage over Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky in exchange for political assistance,

    THE PERSISTENT INFLUENCE OF TRUMP’S “SHADOW ADVISER” ERIK PRINCE

    THE WALL STREET JOURNALreported on Tuesday that the Trump administration approached Blackwater founder and Trump shadow adviser

    Erik Prince about potentially buying a Ukrainian aerospace company that the U.S. government wants

    to prevent the Chinese government from acquiring.

    “Motor Sich is a leading maker of helicopter and airplane engines and the U.S. wants to scuttle its pending sale to a group of Chinese companies to keep Beijing from acquiring vital defense technology,” according to the report.

    “A U.S. government official sought out Mr. Prince in Washington earlier this year.

    Mr. Prince expressed interest in Motor Sich, as long as the company remained a Ukrainian en y and he could receive its client list, the U.S. official said.”

    Prince is an interesting choice if the White House wanted to prevent China from acquiring the firm.

    Prince’s latest venture, Frontier Services Group, is a Hong Kong-based company and

    largely controlled by the Chinese government’s powerful investment arm.

    Trump wanted Barr to hold news conference saying the president broke no laws in call with Ukrainian leader

    The president has mentioned Barr’s demurral to associates in recent weeks, saying he wished Barr would have held the news conference,

    the Justice Department has sought some distance from the White House, particularly on matters relating to the burgeoning controversy over Trump’s dealings on Ukraine and the impeachment inquiry they sparked.

    those close to the administration also concede that the department has made several recent maneuvers putting it at odds with the White House at a particularly precarious time for the president.

    From the moment the administration released the rough transcript, Barr made clear that whatever the president was up to, he was not a party to it.

    After Rand Paul asked media to unmask alleged whistleblower,
    Russian media did just that

    Very quickly after Sen. Paul tweeted out an article that speculated in considerable detail about the iden y of the whistleblower—with a photograph, a name, and details about the purported political history of a CIA professional—Russian state media quickly followed suit.

    As if on cue,

    the Kremlin-controlled heavy hitters—TASS, RT, Rossiya-1—disseminated the same information.

    But unlike Rand Paul, one of the Russian state media outlets didn’t seem to find

    the source—Real Clear Investigations—to be particularly impressive,

    and claimed falsely that the material was published originally by The Washington Post.

    Wow. Thanks for that, Rand. Great to see you’re such a principled guy.

    Ukraine had agreed to announce a Biden investigation — blowing a massive hole in Trump’s defense

    The New York Times is reporting

    that Ukraine ultimately agreed to President Donald Trump’s demand

    to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his family, but those inside Ukraine didn’t have any follow-through.


    In early September, Ukrainian President Volodymyr

    Zelensky was faced with Trump’s demand to investigate the Bidens

    in exchange for the sale of 150 Javelin missiles and

    10 launchers to fight back against Russian invaders.


    According to The Times report, Zelensky agreed to it but it never happened.

    Volker’s deputy told Congress Ukrainians found out Trump froze their military aid ‘very early on’ — before the public knew

    a special adviser for Ukraine and deputy to Kurt Volker, testified that

    Ukrainian officials became aware of President Donald Trump’s decision to freeze military aide appropriated by Congress “very early on” — and long before the public became aware of the delay.

    Croft, according to the transcript,
    told the House that

    Ukrainian officials “approached me quietly and in confidence

    to ask me about an [Office of Management and Budget] hold on Ukraine security assistance,” and that

    she was taken aback by how quickly they became aware of it.

    Rick Perry Exports His Pay-to-Play Politics to Ukraine

    Perry has talked about his aspirations for Ukraine to become “the Texas of Europe.” On the corporate cronyism front, he may just have succeeded.

    It appears that

    Rick Perry exported his pay-to-play politics from the Texas governor’s mansion to the notoriously corrupt Ukrainian oil and gas sector,

    where, as President Donald Trump’s energy secretary, he has played an outsized role in opening up the industry to private investors.

    As the Associated Press reported on Monday,

    two of Perry’s longtime political patrons won what could be an immensely profitable drilling contract on a sprawling patch of land owned by the Ukrainian government.
