Trump Whistleblower Saga
An explosive whistleblower complaint that is threatening to paralyze much of Washington, D.C., now may upend the 2020 presidential campaign. This week it was reported the complaint involves President Donald Trump asking Ukraine's president to investigate the son of Joe Biden. The Wall Street Journal reported Friday, citing sources, that Trump asked Ukraine's leader eight times during a July phone call to investigate Biden's son and his work in Ukraine. The Washington Post reported that while the call did not contain an explicit quid pro quo, it is "part of a broader set of facts included in the whistleblower complaint." The complaint was significant enough to prompt the intelligence community's inspector general to bring it to the attention of the director of national intelligence, who has not made it available to Congress in part because of objections from the Department of Justice. Shortly after his election, Ukraine's new president, Volodymyr Zelensky, and his team found themselves being pressured by Rudy Giuliani, Trump's lawyer and confidant, to further an investigation into whether Biden may or may not have applied pressure to curtail an investigation into his son Hunter's role on the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian gas company. Trump Admits Asking Ukraine to Investigate Biden's Son President Donald Trump admitted on Monday morning that he told Ukraine's president that the U.S. would withhold $250 million in military aid for Ukraine because of "corruption" - an apparent reference to efforts to dig up dirt on the role Joe Biden and his son Hunter are alleged to have played in Ukraine several years back. In the past week, news reports have revealed that in a recent phone call, Trump pressed the new Ukrainian leader, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, to investigate whether Joe Biden intervened on his son's behalf to fire a prosecutor who was allegedly being harmful to his business interests. News reports have shown that Biden did not play such a role. Shep Smith Lays It Out For Fox News Viewers Smith laid it out: "The real issue here is the phone call. The claim that the president pressured a foreign leader to investigate a political rival and the failure to pass the whistleblower complaint to Congress. Now, among the Democrats, the pressure to impeach this president is building." According to The Washington Post, Trump ordered acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney to delay nearly $400 million in military aid to Ukraine ahead of his phone call to Zelensky. ------------------------- The GOP are now: Guardians Of Pedophiles |
