Trump Pressed for Ukraine Envoy's Removal, She Tells Lawmakers

Commenting for the first time on what she called a “concerted campaign” against her, Marie Yovanovitch, a career diplomat whom Mr. Trump removed from her post in May, said she didn’t know why she was targeted by Trump allies outside the administration, including his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani. But she drew a link to the two Giuliani associates who were arrested this week on campaign-finance charges in the U.S., saying she suspected the men stood to benefit financially by sidetracking an ambassador who had spoken out against corruption in Ukraine.

Trump's E.U. ambassador to testify in impeachment inquiry, defying State Dept.

"Notwithstanding the State Department's current direction to not testify, Ambassador Sondland will honor the Committees' subpoena, and he looks forward to testifying on Thursday," Sondland's attorneys, Robert Luskin and Kwame Manley, said in a statement.

2 ANON sources here....

And really, that's what the email said?

Quote:

"We are not concerned with any information Yovanovitch might share, because the President did nothing wrong," the White House email meant for Republicans said. "But we are concerned that Schiff is putting her a precarious position by having her testify in secret without State Department lawyers be present."


Where's the copy editor?


There should be an "in" before "a precarious position".

Garbage tier.

Trump decided to pull American troops out of northern Syria, but did it in precisely the way that would cause the most chaos to both the United States and its allies. And that’s what he’s gotten.

And in yet other news, after blowing up negotiations with the Taliban in Afghanistan because he didn’t understand what was going on, Trump is now trying to start them up again. Good luck with that.

Oh, and Trump’s buddy who served as roving ambassador to Ukraine is apparently prepared to testify that the only reason he said there was "no quid pro quo" required for Ukraine to receive its military aid is because Trump told him to say that. He himself has no idea if it was true or not.

Trump has delivered what Russia wants in Syria — at zero cost — and 'Putin likely can't believe his luck'

"Putin continues to get whatever he wants and generally doesn't even have to do much," a NATO official told Insider. "He got to sit back and watch the Turks and the Americans unravel five years of success, and not only did it not cost him anything, he didn't even have to try to make it happen. Small wonder he'd interfere on Trump's side in an election."

I'd go "Meh", too, if I did not understand that only one phone call to the President of Turkey from Trump could undo five years of work in Syria. And release 785 ISIS prisoners. And Trump did it all on Sunday night. And he didn't even have to try hard.

"Trump: Mexicans Are a Bigger Threat Than the ISIS Prisoners I Let Escape in Northern Syria." Meanwhile, the president has vowed to punish Turkey for the killings he sanctioned.

www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/10/donald-trump-turkey-syria-sanctions

Donald Trump has made a lot of exceedingly stupid decisions in the 78,000 dog years he’s been in office, but few compare, in impact and the speed with which they blew up in his face, than the one to withdraw troops from northern Syria, paving the way for Turkey to invade the region and kill our Kurdish allies, leading to one (completely predictable) consequence after the next.

Now that the situation has descended into unstoppable chaos, Trump is naturally acting as though no one could have predicted any of this, and threatening retribution that experts say will do little to stop the unmitigated disaster he set into motion.

Trump’s explicitly declared position in the scandal consuming his presidency is that pressuring a foreign power to “investigate” a leading domestic political opponent absolutely falls within his rightfully exercised authority. Trump has said this, and so has his White House counsel, making this the White House’s official political, substantive and legal position.

But this defense is cracking up. That’s because we’re now learning, one after another, that all of the people around him knew that it was grievously wrong — that is, all except for those who were carrying out Trump’s corrupt scheme.

As this becomes more public, Trump’s position will grow increasingly unsustainable — not just as a rhetorical matter but also in terms of whether he’ll be able to keep the support of Senate Republicans, his final line of defense.

The latest domino to fall is John Bolton. In July, Bolton grew so alarmed by efforts to pressure Ukraine to launch “investigations” into Joe Biden and his son that he instructed an aide to alert White House lawyers.

That aide is Fiona Hill, a former senior White House adviser on Russia and Europe. Hill testified this week about this exchange to House investigators as part of their impeachment inquiry. Hill told them that Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland, Trump lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani and acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney had run what The Post calls a “shadow” campaign to pressure Ukraine to do Trump’s political bidding.

“I am not part of whatever drug deal Sondland and Mulvaney are cooking up,” Bolton reportedly told Hill to tell White House lawyers.

Another man is arrested in probe of Giuliani associates

NEW YORK (AP) — A Florida man wanted in a campaign finance case involving associates of Rudy Giuliani is in federal custody after flying Wednesday to Kennedy Airport in New York City to turn himself in, federal authorities said.
David Correia was named in an indictment with two Giuliani associates and another man who were all arrested last week on charges they made illegal contributions to politicians and a political action committee supporting President Donald Trump. Giuliani, a former New York City mayor, is Trump's personal lawyer.

There’s a massive amount of evidence now that Trump has spent nearly a year obsessing over how to get Ukraine to investigate a political opponent. He has co-opted Rudy Giuliani, Mick Mulvaney, Gordon Sondland, Rick Perry, and probably many others in this campaign, and he has used as bait both military aid and a personal meeting with Ukraine’s president at the White House. This was no off-the-cuff effort.

This is as clear a case of abuse of power as anyone could imagine. How is it possible to leave a man in office who does something like this?

‘Get over it’: Mulvaney’s twin admissions put Trump at the center of emoluments and Ukraine controversies

First came the lengthy infomercial touting President Trump’s private golf resort in Florida as “far and away the best” site in the country to host next year’s Group of Seven summit of world leaders. Then, an admission: Trump did, in fact, withhold aid to Ukraine because he wanted the government there to investigate Democrats.

Typical Trumpian move. First deny, then admit and claim so what, everybody does it. After that it's up to his minions to make that case. Not with evidence but instead with innuendo and lies.

The missing piece is our local trolls now admitting they were full of shit in their denials of Trumps guilt.

Signym wanted a "loose cannon" for President. I see no reason for Signym or 1kiki to abandon Trump. He has become a dozen loose cannons. Everyday there are more and more loose cannons crashing around and breaking things. Calling Trump a bull in a china shop does not do justice to how many things he breaks:

When a politician is prepared to remove a fundamental underpinning of shame and ethics from his political personality, there's almost no limit to his destructive political behavior.

The President's brazen willingness to do exactly what he wants -- key to his appeal to voters angry with the political establishment in 2016 -- shone through a wild few hours that briefly stole the spotlight from the Democratic impeachment inquiry.

First, Mulvaney blew away the cobwebs in the White House Briefing Room by announcing that the President would hold next year's G7 summit at his Doral resort in Florida.

Even for an administration that has redefined the concept of conflicts of interests, this is a staggering move. Mulvaney insisted with a straight face that Trump would not profit from the summit, even though millions of dollars from foreign delegations will flood into the coffers of the struggling resort and bring a worldwide branding boost.

Then Mulvaney made an even more unabashed declaration, admitting that Trump did freeze nearly $400 million in aid to coerce Ukraine into investigating his Democratic opponents.

It will be such a terrible burden upon me if Trump wins because I'll have to go to the bank with a bigger truck to deposit my money.

Trump is complaining that the news isn't allowing him to walk off with an extra $7 million in Federal money (He says it's "free"; I say he is full of baloney):

It's fine with me if 6ixStringJack has aligned himself with the elderly. I'm elderly, so, thank you for voting GOP, although I don't:

"It’s overly simplistic to say that older Americans vote Republican, they’re just a lot more likely than younger voters to do so. Exit polls show that in 2012, 56% of voters age 65 and over voted for Republican candidate Mitt Romney compared to just 37% of the youngest voting group, those age 18 to 29.

In the last presidential election, 72% of Americans age 65 and over voted, compared to just 41% of those age 18 to 24. Though that gap in turnout is huge, the fact that it exists is hardly surprising – it’s a pretty well-known fact that the older an American is, the more likely they are to vote.

But that wasn’t always the case – as recently as 1990, Americans age 45 to 64 were as likely to vote as those age 65 and over. And in the elections of 1964 and 1968, Americans who were 25 to 44 years old were slightly more likely to cast a ballot than the oldest voters."

www.theguardian.com/news/datablog/2016/sep/23/older-americans-vote-rep
ublican-fact-check-election-2016


"Trump's biggest risk in 2020 isn't losing young people. It's losing their grandparents."- www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/trump-s-biggest-risk-2020-isn-t-losing-y
oung-people-ncna1018216


People 65 and older have long been solidly Republican, serving as reliable voters who can be counted on to not only turn out more than other blocs, but also do so with less effort on the part of campaigns. Their support was evident in both the 2010 and the 2014 midterm elections, when the GOP won these voters by 21 and 16 points respectively. So, too, was it visible in the last two presidential elections, as senior voters backed Mitt Romney by 12 and Donald Trump by eight points.

However, in 2018 the GOP managed to win voters 65 and older by just two points.

There are signs that this is not a fluke, and that the Trump era has caused senior citizens to abandon the GOP in numbers big enough that could produce huge electoral consequences for both congressional Republicans and Trump alike.

WTF Pelosi? Let's get the ball rolling before the GOP takes the house back, huh?

Do Right, Be Right. :)

No, 6ixStringJack. The longer Pelosi tortures Trump about the 100 things he has to hide, the better it is. The more anxious Trump is about being revealed naked, the more fun will be had at his expense.

Weak and defenseless, Trump bows down in the face of ‘Crazed and Irrational Hostility’

Like most other old trolls, it’s easy to tell when tweeter Trump is whipped: “Based on both Media & Democrat Crazed and Irrational Hostility, we will no longer consider Trump National Doral, Miami, as the Host Site for the G-7 in 2020. We will begin the search for another site, including the possibility of Camp David, immediately.” - https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1185735579327193093

The problem with Trump’s explanation is that if he really believed that all he was up against was crazed and irrational hostility, why would he back down? What happened to his famous counter-punch?

It turns out that the president who never tires of expressing his contempt for alliances, is becoming increasingly aware that if he loses his GOP allies on Capitol Hill, he’s advancing towards impeachment.

In that event, he probably won’t receive Nixon’s fig leaf of an honorable departure: a red carpet to the presidential helicopter, followed by a final Air Force One trip back to his family home.

The reason Trump dropped his Florida resort as the next G7 venue is the opposite to the one he tweeted. The switch was actually prompted by irate Republicans.

Trump sleeps like a baby at night.

He has zero concern over the games the Democrats are playing.

It's not about page counts JO. It's about posting what I see as pertinent information that's being reported. On topics I deem relevant. Facts that show what the trolls are posting here is bullshit.

That said, I'm not getting into a back and forth with the trolls. It's very rare that I respond to anything they post. It's been year after year with nothing but bullshit posts from them. I already know what they'll say because I've heard it all before. I post updated facts that are in the news. Truths that expose their aversion to posting the truth.

I rarely go to threads created by trolls because I don't wish to engage with them. Why would I. All they do is lie and troll.

When I see you or G start a thread I try to stop by. I try and post something supportive of you and move on. It appears for the most part both you a G do the same. Only SECOND shows a real interest in going back and forth with them consistently.

U.S. diplomat who questioned 'crazy' Ukraine policy to testify in Trump probe

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. lawmakers conducting an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump will hear on Tuesday from the top U.S. official in Ukraine, who once said it was "crazy" to withhold military aid for the country for domestic political reasons.

It's a legitimate question.


Did you call SGG JO because you are drunk?

Did you call SGG JO because you believe one is a sockpuppet of the other?

Did you call SGG JO because you are stupid?


Only one of those three answers are correct. Which one is it?

While we're on the topic of approval ratings, it should be mentioned that Trump's current approval rating dwarfs both that of congress and trust in the Legacy Media.

The desire of House Democrats to avoid confusing the issue by turning their impeachment inquiry into a sprawling investigation or a comprehensive accounting of Donald Trump’s crimes is understandable. And certainly if Senate Republicans indicate that they are prepared to hold Trump accountable in exchange for Democrats agreeing to act swiftly so that the country can move on, Democrats should do the responsible thing and remove Trump from office ASAP.

But there’s no indication that’s happening. Instead, among Republicans, only Sen. Mitt Romney has spoken about Trump’s misconduct with any degree of clarity, and even Romney hasn’t said he deems the total subversion of American foreign policy to necessarily be an impeachable offense.

If Republicans are going to stand by Trump regardless, there is absolutely no reason to cut the impeachment inquiry short or artificially limit its scope.
The volume of leaks coming out of the Trump White House sometimes creates the impression that we have visibility into what’s really happening there. The moral of the Ukraine story is that isn’t true. A whistleblower’s memo brought new facts to light that were previously being covered-up. And the memo itself was nearly covered up. The launching of the formal inquiry has brought forth fruitful testimony from government officials who were apparently planning to stay silent otherwise.

It’s certainly possible that Trump’s corrupt dealings with Ukraine is the only example of him attempting dirty deals with foreign leaders. But it’s also quite possible it’s just the only example we happen to know about.

What we know for sure is that there are other call records that have been inappropriately kept on a super-classified server in order to shield their contents from other people in the government. Unless Republicans start showing some immediate interest in removal over Ukraine it would be political malpractice to not look into what’s happening during Trump’s calls with leaders of countries like Turkey, Russia, and Saudi Arabia.

Trump keeps breaking with bipartisan sentiment in Congress to defend Saudi Arabia — three of his four vetoes as president have been about this. The public message on this is that he does it for the sake of American defense contractors whose Saudi contracts he doesn’t want to imperil.

And maybe that’s all there is to it, but we’ve also known for a long time now that Trump conducts diplomacy with Saudi Arabia through irregular channels overseen by his son-in-law. There’s no particularly clear reason why you would do things that way, and Congress should ask whether Trump is really the selfless defender of arms dealers’ profits that he portrays himself as or is he cutting himself in on the deal.

Trump frustrated as White House effort to defy impeachment inquiry fails to halt witness testimony, advisers say

After weeks of dismissing the impeachment inquiry as a hollow partisan attack, President Trump and his closest advisers now recognize that the snowballing probe poses a serious threat to the president — and that they have little power to block it, according to multiple aides and advisers.

This isn't just about Trump being corrupt. It's also about his putting this countries security at risk for personal gain. It's about collaborating with foreign entities to corrupt our elections.

No, it isn't just about Trump. It's also about the republicans assisting and enabling him to do so.
