LOLWhy is it their fault you're too brain damaged to comprehend they said they "strongly encourage you to reverse course" in regard to them being "disappointed that some in Kyiv appear to have cast aside these principles in order to avoid the ire of President Trump." ... ?Are you going to apologize to the forum for posting the lie that the letter by Menendez, Leahy & Durbin included the quote, "U.S. assistance" was at stake, when the words, "U.S. assistance" don't even appear in that letter?So IF this sad story of "mafia tactics" on the part of Mendedez, Leahy and Durbin IS shown to be true -- YOU would certainly want them removed from office as well... AMIRITE? [/USER] Lakhota Faun
Unlike the frantic rabid partisans, I'll wait for confirmation of any evidence because I DO still believe in evidence and legal process... But I'm pretty sure the MAJORITY of people in Congress ARE compromised by acts that are either illegal or GROSS ABUSE of power..
This nuclear exchange of guilt on BOTH sides could take YEARS to even write about....

And do you see now what happens when you blindly and idiotically put your trust into a biased site which relies on op/eds instead of news?
LMAO, we've been supportive, but you must reverse course. As I said the implication was very clear, no reversal, no support. Deal with it commie.

I read the letter, I paraphrased, much more accurately than adam (bug-eyes) shit did on the Trump conversation, I might say.

You're such a dumbshit (i.e., typical conservative)
The NY Times reported that help from Ukraine in Mueller's case against Manafort was being halted due to fear of retribution from trump.
Ukraine, Seeking U.S. Missiles, Halted Cooperation With Mueller Investigation
KIEV, Ukraine — In the United States, Paul J. Manafort is facing prosecution on charges of money laundering and financial fraud stemming from his decade of work for a pro-Russian political party in Ukraine.
But in Ukraine, where officials are wary of offending President Trump, four meandering cases that involve Mr. Manafort, Mr. Trump’s former campaign chairman, have been effectively frozen by Ukraine’s chief prosecutor.
The cases are just too sensitive for a government deeply reliant on United States financial and military aid, and keenly aware of Mr. Trump’s distaste for the investigation by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, into possible collusion between Russia and his campaign, some lawmakers say.
The decision to halt the investigations by an anticorruption prosecutor was handed down at a delicate moment for Ukraine, as the Trump administration was finalizing plans to sell the country sophisticated anti-tank missiles, called Javelins.
Now you admit you read ...
"We have supported that capacity-building process and are disappointed that some in Kyiv appear to have cast aside these principles in order to avoid the ire of President Trump. If these reports are true, we strongly encourage you to reverse course and halt any efforts to impede cooperation with this important investigation."
... but don't understand it.
Dumbfuck, they were encouraging them not to not halt helping with Mueller's investigation "if these reports are true," that they were doing so out of fear of Trump.The letter doesn't even have anything to do with Mueller's investigation of Trump. It was in regard to Mueller's findings on Manafort's illegal connections with Ukraine.
Poor thing, is the ny slimes the best you got. Besides Manafort had nothing to do with Muellers primary mission of Russian interference. Ukraine on the other hand could provide valuable information on the genesis of intel attacks on Trump. That was the favor he asked.
