Thanks for pointing that out.
One thing I've noticed about all the witnesses is, to a person, they appear to be smart, accomplished and moral. Not that earning a living as a butcher, baker, candlestick maker or in real estate don't deserve credit but these people at the witness table are extraordinary people who would excel in any field they chose to commit to but are devoting their talents for the betterment of all of us.

For someone to denigrate that tells us everything we need to know about the critic's own moral compass.

Yeah... just stop.

Strange that these witnesses who consider themselves experts on Ukraine had no idea Biden got the prosecutor fired for investigating his son.
They are the only" experts" that Adam Schiff could gather up in his Rush to Judgment. He recruited them , prepped them , and delivered them for the cameras.

The problem with your quote.... Pot meet kettle. This whole "hearing" should tell us that the US Government is as corrupt as Ukraine or Russia. Both sides of the freakin aisle....

Please stop.

I personally know of a former Democrat Legislator, Military , Law Degree , Fancy School , who is a drunk and beat up his parents. He looked great on camera all the time.

You only know what you are seeing. They have been prepped.

These people are career military and diplomats who have excelled at their professions, with decades of pertinent experience, and some, like George Kent (American diplomat serving as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, AKA as the guy in the bowtie) are savvy, experienced, and sophisticated enough that someone like Gym Jordan had to tread carefully, lest Kent make him look like a fool.

Well, Poroshenko may have agreed but he never acted - where he got an official resignation letter from Shokin - without additional effort from U.S. senate, IMF. That took another 2 months.

Even then Shokin attempted to unfire himself and actually showed up back in the office after officially resigning announcing he'd been on extended leave. That was a month after his resignation was officially announced. A couple of weeks later the Ukrainian Parliament finally acted.

Firing Shokin was like playing whac - a - mole.

Solomon takes this ^^^ and inserts various events to create false narratives, Nunes etc. then following Solomon.

Biden was speaking informally giving an anecdote in response to a question.

Why shouldn't we take Biden at his word? He bragged about getting the Ukraine's prosecutor fired within 6 hours.

AG Barr announced he heard nothing about this from Trump, and was not aware of the proposed investigation. He was out-of-the-loop. It was Giuliani who was the point man.

Funny that other witnesses statements state that Trump wanted them to open an investigation. One heard it on a phone call inn a restaurant between Trump and Sondland. The exact statement from Trump was "so he's going to do the investigation"
