Actually it does matter seeing the transcript clearly says the favor if for crowdstrike...
Why do you not want the ones leaking the information not brought to Congress?
Trump has the right to face his accusers...
Why does it matter who made the complaint? Trump will have plenty of time to face his "accusers," the Congress.
Holy shit!
Good to know, so someone with no firsthand knowledge made the complaint based off of second and thirdhand conversations...
Your answer is who cares as long as Trump is impeached because I hate him...
Show in the transcript where Trump directly asked for the favor to be on Biden and his Son and let see if you can be totally honest here?
Who cares who exposed Trump for
a. Trying to pressure a foreign president to make dirt up about his political opponent
b. Try to cover it up by hiding the transcripts in a place meant for only top secret national security shit
This is classic mafia shit. Someone snitches and all the mafia bosses care about is who is the rat. They never want to talk about the crimes they committed. They're more mad at the rat.
Trump got busted. I like it that there is a spy in the White House telling on them when they break the law.
Remember when Trump said
Trump: I'll choose the best people for my administration
Really Don? Because everyone has either quit, been fired or been arrested or is a rat.
1. You wrote in another post that Donald Trump put up 50k for the snitch name and it was another two people and not him.
It is those like you and old lady that enjoy making stuff up daily while screaming " who cares where the information came from " ...
So it was not Trump that offered the 50k for the name.
2. In the transcript the favor was for crowdstrike and not Biden.
Yes Biden name did come up a little time later when discussing Biden role in the firing of the Ukrainian Prosecutor which Biden gleefully admitted he had a hand in.
Was Biden name in the conversation?
Yes...
Was the favor to dig dirt up on him?
Unless you can show me where Trump stated he wanted another favor then no.
3. Whistleblower account is from other sources so yes they must come forward and support the whistleblower accusations, and it make me wonder why do you want them to stay in the shadows?
You are acting like a Stalinist with your dirty little spies everywhere and keep them hidden from Congress for some reason...
Maybe you should have gone on 60 minutes last night because the Republican who went did a horrible job. The interviewer didn't let him dodge the question he asked.
McCarthy struggled to defend
President Donald Trumpâs phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky
Asked if he believes itâs appropriate for the president to seek foreign assistance to investigate his political rivals, McCarthy wouldnât answer directly but claimed Trump did ânothing in this phone call that is impeachable.â
âKevin McCarthy again displays his unique brand of incompetence and dishonesty,â Amash tweeted Sunday night with a clip of the interview.
Rep. Justin Amash Slams GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy's 'Incompetence And Dishonesty' | HuffPost
âEvery day, President Trump and his defenders tell us not to believe our own eyes and ears,â Amash tweeted Thursday. âWe read or hear the presidentâs words, and weâre told to reject the natural and ordinary meaning. We see evidence of wrongdoing, and weâre told it proves virtue.â
In the â60 Minutesâ interview, McCarthy flailed as he tried to defend Trumpâs actions. At one point, he awkwardly â and falsely â accused CBSâs Scott Pelley of adding another word to the White Houseâs transcript of the call:
Pelley: âWhat do you make of this exchange? President Zelensky says, âWe are almost ready to buy more Javelins from the United States for defense purposes.â And President Trump replies, âI would like you to do us a favor though.ââ
McCarthy: âYou just added another word.â
Pelley: âNo. Itâs in the transcript.â
McCarthy: âYou said, âIâd like you to do a favor though.ââ
Pelley: âYes, itâs in the White House transcript.â
McCarthy then slammed former President Barack Obama for not selling an anti-tank military weapon to Ukraine during his presidency.
Asked how he expects Trumpâs defense to roll out, McCarthy responded, âThe defense of what?â
âWell, thereâs an impeachment inquiry,â Pelley reminded him.
McCarthy, avoiding the substance of the question, responded by describing the difficulty of voting to go to war.
âYeah, thereâs an impeachment inquiry going forward,â he told Pelley. âIt probably never would move forward had the speaker waited 48 hours to have the transcript. We vote on important things every day. But there are certain votes that are different than others. Sending men and women off to war is the most difficult vote any member of Congress would ever make.â
Pelley continued to press McCarthy, âIâll ask you again, how does the defense of the president in your view roll out from here?â
This time, McCarthy said thereâs no need to move forward with impeachment and that Trumpâs call isnât something that needs defending.
âThe president did nothing in this phone call that is impeachable,â he claimed.
The whistleblower, as well as Democrats, say Trump pressed Zelensky to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a front-runner in the Democratic race to challenge Trumpâs reelection, and may have withheld military aid to Ukraine as leverage.
The White House tried to cover up the phone call by storing records of the conversation in an electronic system meant to handle classified information regarding national security issues, the whistleblower complaint alleges.
But McCarthy during his â60 Minutesâ interview denied Trump had pressured Zelensky.
âWhen I read the transcript,â he said, âI see two leaders having admiration, not intimidation.â
If you didnt see the interview it was shocking. Republicans really have no defense in light of the evidence. Do you see how McCarthy is all over the place?
McCarthy then slammed former President Barack Obama for not selling an anti-tank military weapon to Ukraine during his presidency? What the **** does that have to do with anything?
Then again, McCarthy, avoiding the substance of the question, responded by describing the difficulty of voting to go to war. Huh? He is a total idiot!!!
