violation of Emoluments clause, coercing a foreign government into investigating a political rival in exchange for military aid, obstruction of justice, using a personal lawyer for interfering in foreign affairs, threatening a whistle blower.....and so on so forth
A newly unearthed document shows that Ukrainian officials had opened a new probe into the firm linked to Hunter Biden months before President Trump's phone call with that country's leader, Fox News contributor John Solomon reported late Tuesday.
Solomon said Tuesday on "Hannity" that the U.S. government knew Ukraine was planning to look again into activities at Burisma Holdings, an energy company that employed then-Vice President Joe Biden's son as a member of its board of directors, early this year. The report is noteworthy because President Trump has been accused by Democrats of threatening in July to withhold foreign aid to Ukraine unless its new president pursued an investigation into the company and the younger Biden's role there.
"The U.S. government had open-source intelligence and was aware as early as February of 2019 that the Ukrainian government was planning to reopen the Burisma investigation," he claimed. "This is long before the president ever imagined having a call with President Zelensky," he added, noting Petro Poroshenko was still Ukraine's president at that time.

They wanted someone who was impeached back in the WH. Think about that one for a minute.

I am a liberal Democrat and socialist. I get your point the media is full of spin-meisters. However, sometimes you have documentary evidence coming directly from witnesses:
The evidence:
Sullivan: "Soliciting investigations into a domestic political opponent, I don't think that would be in accord with our values"
A week later, Taylor was even more concerned, texting Sondland: "As I said on the phone, I think it's crazy to withhold security assistance for help with a political campaign."
Vindman: "I did not think it was proper to demand that a foreign government investigate a U.S. citizen, and I was worried about the implications for the U.S. government’s support of Ukraine"
Vindman: "I am a patriot, and it is my sacred duty and honor to advance and defend OUR country, irrespective of party or politics"
I don't think you can claim these quotes are being spun by a so called "liberal" media. These are witness statements of what actually happened from their perspective. These quotes seem to me to carry a little more weight than some talking head's spin analysis.

Is this the fat Soldier popping out of his uniform. If he was in my unit the CO would have given him 3 months to get in shape. He a terd head. He should be ashamed wearing that uniform being that obese.
His highest award is a Purple Heart. I have one of those. Not my highest award though. This guy has been in the military forever and his highest award is a Purple Heart, the one award no Soldier wants. He should have awards higher than that being a COL and working on all these high profile jobs. That right there says a lot about him.
