Yovanovitch is the guy that lied about Yovanovitch's "do not prosecute" list. OAN is the network that pushes conspiracy theories and is completely in bed with Trump. Right-winger like @commodre who watches OAN are living in a deep deep echo chamber.
Do you know I how I know that people like Rudy, Trump and Nunes knows that this Biden-Ukraine thing is nothing more than a conspiracy theory? They don't trust US law enforcement and career prosecutors would find enough evidence for legal warrants hence they didn't trust having the proper legal channels handle an investigation. That in itself proves that they weren't searching for some truth out of altruistic desires for justice but rather a narrative to sell for the American public for the upcoming election. If Trump truly cares about finding justice, he wouldn't have sent a loon tv lawyer to run around Ukraine talking to failed Ukrainian prosecutors known for actual corruption trying to hunt down a narrative. No, if there was actual "there there", the FBI would be handling this ****, not political goons like Rudy who have no affiliation with the government. It would be like Obama sending Bill Maher to Mexico to find dirt on Mitt Romney a year before the 2012 election because he knows no credible law enforcement agency would find actual evidence that would back up Obama's narrative he desires for the upcoming election. Very legal, very cool. Another dead give away that Donald Trump is hunting for political dirt rather than seeking justice his him trying to get Zielinski to investigate Crowdstirke, a straight up QAnon conspiracy debunked by Trump's OWN INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES and pushed by RUSSSIA. He keeps on calling Crowdstirke a "Ukrainian server" when it's a god damn publicly traded American based cyber security firm that the GOP ****ING hires also for their own cyber security measures. So Donald Trump when trying to start investigations on his political rivals doesn't get his intelligence from his own staff, or US intelligence agencies, US law enforcement agencies but God damn right wing conspiracy sites and you want us to pretend that Donald Trump is doing all this for altruistic reasons to find justice. How dumb do you think people are?
Call it whatever you want but using a loon tv lawyer instead of career prosectors, the FBI, DoJ etc along with the courts to issue warrants is clear evidence that Trump was doing this for personal political reasons rather than a genuine concern for "corruption". You don't fight alleged corruption with actual corruption.
You do realize Trump had reason to not trust the people surrounding him especially the FBI right? For what it’s worth Trump doesn’t need “dirt” on Biden to beat him.
Ya, when a leader of a country doesn't trust their own justice system and trusts a grifting tv lawyer, that is what we call early stage fascism. Saying that he doesn't "need" dirt on Biden is your own subjective opinion. If Trump finds an avenue to extort a foreign country to publicly state they are investigating his competition for reelection, I doubt his head is thinking "I got this in the bag, no need to run up the score to make sure I'll win". It's silly Trump bootlicking logic.
It’s all opinion, just like your expert analysis of the “Trump Ukraine Scandal”. I thought your take on the “Trump Russian Collusion Scandal” had much more substance but not all is lost you can step up your game on the next impeachment scandal. Although I am curious to see how this plays out if it goes to the Senate.
What, the nunes/jordan/republican congressional report contained lies in defending trump? Say it ain't so... Seven Outright Falsehoods in GOP Staff Report on Impeachment https://www.justsecurity.org/67658/seven-outright-falsehoods-in-gop-staff-report-on-impeachment/
At least he's making an argument on the facts of the case instead of banging his fist on the table and b****ing about process. Even though its an embarrassment of a defense. The Republicans shouldn't be allowed by the media to put the Democrats on trial as a defense. I get it... everyone hates the Dems. That's not the point. They cannot and will not argue the facts of the case. Allowing them to just b**** about Democrats lets Trump off the hook for what he did.
...weren't the Republicans also floating around the idea that it was "un-American" and "tacky" and "classless" or whatever, to vote for impeachment of a sitting President with Christmas just around the corner, or something? ...I'm sure I remember them saying something like that once before.. ..."tis the season, I say!
