And a good thing too. I believe CIA officers take an oath to protect America from enemies both foreign and domestic.
And the orange menace and his unlawful behavior right now constitute one of the biggest domestic threats to the USA.
What is terrific is, this whistleblower is no hack. He(she) is a seasoned professional, with a background in exactly the kinds of sins Trump committed here. Trumpees are trying to portray this person as a clerk who got their information second hand, and this is anything but that.
No matter how Trump and his minions try to spin this one, this is serious business, and they know it. My guess is, Trump will hear the words "You're FIRED !" (how apropos ! ) and will cut a deal with Pence to give him a full pardon, if he leaves peacefully.
Since the precedent has been set that a President's conversations with other leaders are for public consumption, and that such conversations cannot put pressure on foreigh leaders, just wait for the hundreds of Obama calls doing so much more to be declassified and published. In fact, Trump should declassify every single communication from the WH from 2008-2016.
Do you always live in a fantasy world? How you know this how ?
I doubt Trump will be able to drain the swamp but he sure the hell is exposing it for all to see. No more pretending it isn't there. What we end up doing about it will ultimately be up to the voters.
And his cabinet and kids are at the head of the line of swamp things.
You guys are a hoot, getting so ruffled because Trump asked a foreign leader to investigate corruption when Obama's administration had the FBI investigating Trump and everyone around him at the height of the 2016 election campaign, to the point of wiretaps and surveillance.
You want to impeach Obama too? Have at it.
"But the Democrats" deflecting is totally irrelevant. Unless you just want to argue for a total abandonment of rule of law.
Do you think it's OK for a president to withhold promised aid(taxpayer funds) then ask for a favor to be followed up with his personal attorney regarding investigating a political rival?
Hunter Biden was not a target of the prosecutor. Ukraine's prosecutor general said he had no evidence of wrongdoing against either Biden.
This was more than a lone whistleblower. He mentions that as many as a dozen of White House operatives were providing him information. That more than suggests that this was a coordinated effort to get the word out to Congress and the American people about the risk they perceived to our nation from Trump's behavior. I wonder where Bolton was in this?
The CIA has alot of bad actors in it placed by the vicious actors in the left wing. The rotting deep state needs to be rooted out.
No surprise John Brennan is it admitted communist, voting for a communist president in the United States in the 70s. Who actually does that? I know of nobody that has. To our leftist here voting for a communist is normal, of course they support him.
And his cabinet and kids are at the head of the line of swamp things.
No kidding !! How America allowed this to happen to us is something scholars will debate for decades. If you sweep everything else out of the way, like Trump's corruption, his dishonesty, his nepotism , his playing footsies with foreign governments, etc., the one thing that no one can deny is that Trump SIMPLY HAS NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL HE IS DOING IN THERE !
He has never had any experience with being in government or politics, all he has done is buy and sell real estate, and run his mouth for his entire life. He thought this would be so easy, come in, make a few deals with other countries, stoke the fires of discontent with things like "The Wall", and it would be like buying a building somewhere. Well, I guess he found out differently, didn't he ?
He found out he has people to answer to now, people watching his every move, he has to play by the rules, and he can not wheel and deal like he did in his former life.
America needed this past almost 3 years to shake us up and show us that we can not take our Democracy for granted. We felt impervious and safe, and here comes a wannabe Hitler, and he actually gets a toehold into our freedom and way of life. I just hope we learned a lesson here, and do not ever let this happen again.
