    Do the dimms realize that the Republicans control the Senate. They will never get a conviction. Trump will surely win reelection...lmao

    I really don't get the Dems point I guess they think they have nothing else to throw at him. Last week it was Kavanaugh the week before It was obstruction before it was collusion and now its a phone call to Ukraine. They are splitting hairs and if I were Trump, I'd sue.

    It's almost as if Trump has set up this whole thing himself and, largely due to thier hysterical and unhinged far left base, they can't help but walk srtaight into his trap.

    It's so absurdly stupid.

    Nancy Pelosi and Company all know it’s a joke but it’s strange how they are taking this path just because of their hatred for Trump. Can anyone imagine if the GOP did this to Obama?

    They were probably right about that but they wouldn’t dare act on it.

    https://consortiumnews.com/2019/09/21/if-the-facts-come-out-it-could-spell-the-end-for-joe-biden/

    When the corruption in which the former Vice President and his son Hunter were involved in Ukraine becomes more widely known, the press wants to be in position to “show” that it’s all the fault of President Donald Trump and his lawyers for trying to derail Biden’s candidacy by exposing him. If past is precedent, the media will largely succeed. The question is whether enough people will, nevertheless, be able to see through this all-too-familiar charade.

    In an interview with The National Interest, Joe Lauria put this episode in context:

    “’It was in February [2014] when Yanukovych was overthrown, and just a few months later (in May), Joe Biden’s son and a close friend of John Kerry’s stepson, they both join the board of this Ukrainian gas company. And the name of that was Burisma Holdings,’” said Joe Lauria, editor of Consortium News and a former correspondent for the Wall Street Journal. “’So just after an American-backed coup, you have Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden and this John Kerry family friend joining the board of probably the largest private gas producer in Ukraine. They installed the new government, and as the bounty of this coup, Joe Biden’s son personally profited. He would not have gotten that job if Yanukovych was still in power,’” Lauria toldThe National Interest.”

    Will U.S. voters have any way of putting these dots together, and also in discerning, for example, how much truth there may be in charges that Vice President Biden pressed hard for the ouster of Ukraine’s Prosecutor General, Viktor Shokin, who was canned after investigating corruption at Burisma Holdings Ukrainian gas company of which Hunter Biden was a board member?

    In this video Biden admits on the record to essentially using a billion dollar line of credit as a bribe to get the prosecutor fired.

    Biden and his family are corrupt as ********, but they're Democrats so it doesn't matter. Remember, Ted Kennedy murdered a woman.

    https://thegrayzone.com/2019/09/23/bomb-extremist-us-soldier-fbi-ukrainian-nazi-azov/

    A far-right US soldier arrested by the FBI for plotting domestic bomb attacks sought to join Ukraine’s neo-Nazi Azov Battalion, which was directly armed and advised by the American government


    While serving in the US military, this right-wing extremist gave fascist militants in Ukraine and other countries information on how to build bombs, including what he called “cell phone IEDs in the style of the Afghans.”

    The FBI said he had also planned to travel to Ukraine in order to join the Azov Battalion, a neo-Nazi militia that has for years been directly supported by the US government.

    In its court filing, the FBI described the Azov Battalion as a “violent far-right paramilitary group.” Yet it failed to disclose that this fascist militia has been armed and advised by American military officials in order to turn up the heat on Russia.

    Publicly available photos show US military advisers directly meeting with the Ukrainian neo-Nazi militia — but the complete lack of critical coverage from a compliant mainstream media has ensured that few Americans know about their government’s double game with fascists.

    The shocking arrest of the US soldier is the latest example in a long list of cases of what intelligence agencies refer to as “blowback,” when US government support for extremist foreign proxies fuels violent terrorism back at home.

    In online messages with an FBI informant, Smith discussed carrying out terrorist attacks inside the US, and said he was looking for fellow far-right “radicals.” He also talked about killing members of Antifa, a decentralized anti-fascist group.

    According to the filing, Smith had since at least 2016 been in regular communication with Craig Lang, an American far-right extremist who traveled to Ukraine to fight with the neo-fascist militia the Right Sector.

    Smith had initially hoped that Lang could help screen him and get him approval to join Ukraine’s radical right.

    Smith told Lang in June 2016, before he enlisted in the US Army, “No former military experience, but if I cannot find a slot in Ukraine by October I’ll be going into the Army… To fight is what I want to do.”

    Apparently unable to find an opportunity in Ukraine, Smith joined the US Army in June 2017.

    While in the US military, Smith repeatedly shared tips and tricks with Lang and other right-wing extremists in social media chats on how to build bombs.

    Following the arrest of Jarrett William Smith, CBS reported that the US Army soldiers had discussed “traveling to Ukraine to fight with a violent far-right group.” Like other corporate media outlets, CBS offered nothing more than a perfunctory account that failed to identify the specific extremist Ukrainian militia.

    Neo-fascist Ukrainian groups like Right Sector and Svoboda played a major role in this Western-backed regime change operation. In the violence following the putsch, these forces cohered into neo-Nazi militias like the Azov Battalion and C14 (named after the white supremacist “14 words” slogan).

    In 2014, the Azov Battalion was directly incorporated into Ukraine’s National Guard, merging the explicitly fascist militia with the Ukrainian Ministry of Interior and military.

    The United States strongly backs Ukraine and has given it significant military support. Many of the weapons provided by Washington have ended up in the hands of avowed neo-Nazis.

    It's amazing how MSM manages to twist a story around that shows clear corruption on the part of one of their favourites and the liberal sycophants eagerly eat it up. They did the same thing wrt the Clintons and Russia. Fvcking disgraceful.

    I'll be surprised if any mention of Burisma Holdings or any Democrat corruption in Ukraine appears in the msm. This will all be about Trump. Pelosi and the gang seem very confident on tv making announcements about this latest attempt to oust Trump. They know the media will play along.

    According to the Dems & MSM, looking into Biden's corruptness is political. Nothing criminal about it.

    They will never talk about this excerpt from the book nor will it be in the movie "The Irishman" coming out in late November.

    “In the fascinating biography of Teamsters and Mafia hit-man Frank Sheeran, “I Heard You Paint Houses,” the lifelong thug describes a favor he performed while he was president of Teamsters Local 326 in Wilmington, Delaware.”

    “In 1972 Sheeran received a visit from ‘a very prominent lawyer’ he knew who was “very big in the Democratic Party” in Delaware. The November general election was approaching, and the race for the U.S. Senate seat held by a Republican was expected to be close. The lawyer wanted help in preventing the distribution of a paid Republican political ad – an insert in the Delaware-wide newspapers – that would run for a week and expose the campaign misrepresentations by the Democratic challenger. Sheeran promised the operative that he ‘would hire some people and put them on the picket line.’ He added, ‘People nobody would mess with.'”
    “The picket line went up, the papers were not delivered all week, and, as Sheeran said, ‘The day after the election the informational picket line came down, and the newspaper went back to normal and Delaware had a new United States Senator.’ His name was Joe Biden. Thereafter, said admitted extortionist, thief and murderer Sheeran, of Biden, ‘You could reach out for him, and he would listen.'”

    Just look at how many times these scumbags have brought up the Mafia the past few days never mentioning once Biden's connection to Russell Bufalino who was Sheeran's boss.

    I seriously don't see how this whistle blower whomever he or she is, isn't held accountable? Whatever Trump did or didn't do, how can someone who works for him turn against him and how is that legal? Shouldn't a president have immunity as many others have throughout history and isn't it illegal or to publicly go against head of the state?
