“Rudy said he never brought up aid to Ukraine. He said Trump does this with every country concerning aid - he wants to make sure aid does not foster corruption.
Rudy said Trump was concerned about Ukrainian corruption, the same as any of us would be if we got briefings by the CIA regarding Ukraine corruption. Rudy said the briefing basically said everyone was corrupt according to our CIA and DOJ.”
Thanks for posting your summary. Well done! Trump should be saying this.
I listened to this before I went to work this morning. Your summary is excellent! They ARE over the target. If anyone has the last 15 minutes please post an additional summary.
More Quid Pro Quos to investigate.
“What was Obama doing for 8 long years with little to show for it? Well, we now know he was busy behind the scenes TRANSFORMING our agencies, military, and etc. by installing SUBVERSIVES dedicated to the overthrow of the USA.”
George W. Bush did not clean house from the Clinton Administration.
Barack Obama stated during his campaign his goal was to fundamentally change America. He was ready to go when he moved into the White House. He fired Republicans and had his nominees ready to go. The Republican Senate acquiesced and rapidly confirmed most of them.
Trumps greatest failure was to name Chris Christie head of his transition. Christie should have vetted people and had an entire administration ready to present to the Senate for approval. Instead, not even key cabinet members were identified. Trump fired Christie and then went scrambling to find and vet people to fill key positions. As far as filling the lower level appointed positions, Trump had no time to assemble a team so he had to carry on with Obama operatives and professional bureaucrats aligned with Democrats or moderate Republicans.
This massive failure to be ready to go on inauguration day has handicapped President Trump to this day. Watching the impeachment hearings I’ve seen a parade of ambassadors and State Department officials who clearly hold the President in contempt. Had Christie done his job, perhaps Trump loyalists would be in these roles.

‘There is no way this man can testify in an open forum’

Beck then showed how the U.S. government was funding George Soros-backed groups — such as the Open Society Foundation and the Anti Corruption Action Center — in Ukraine in 2013 before the Ukrainian revolution in 2014.
