House Intel Chair Adam Schiff appears to be threatening Ukraine over its ongoing corruption probe of the Biden family. During the impeachment hearings on Tuesday, Schiff claimed Ukraine’s investigations into the Bidens could influence U.S. politics.
He suggested Ukraine should leave the Bidens alone.
“The real message to Ukraine — our U.S. policy message is: don’t engage in political investigations,” stated Schiff.
Republican lawmakers have suggested Democrats, rather than President Trump, have tried to pressure the foreign government.
“If the Democrats and the media are suddenly so deeply concerned about bribery, you would think they would take some interest in Burisma paying Hunter Biden $83,000 a month,” said Representative Devin Nunes. “And you think they would be interested in Joe Biden threatening to withhold U.S. loan guarantees unless the Ukrainians fired a prosecutor who is investigating Burisma — that would be a textbook example of bribery.”
Crowdstrike, the one word I have not heard in the questioning or testimony yet. That tells me Hillary and Obama are still in control.
What testicles?
Interesting that they don’t want the Bidens investigated - the Democrats don’t want it, and neither do the Republicans.
Biden as a Presidential candidate is nothing. He is fading fast.
What are they so worried about? What ELSE will an investigation of the Bidens in the Ukraine reveal?
Tip of the iceberg.
Senate GOP: “Investigating the Bidens is like rolling a hand grenade into the Senate, don’t you dare”
I watched Schiff testify Yesterday, he made a pretty compelling case to Criminally Prosecute Joe Biden and Barack Obama for Bribery.
America has NO ROLE WHATSOEVER between those two, nor should we.
If the Euroweeinies want to step up, go right ahead and spend some of those Volkswagen. Daimler and Allianz profits on military aid and have a nice little proxy was against Russia. But they CAN'T. Because they import massive energy from Russia, and will need MORE since Germany is decommissioning every single nuke reactor! So Europe better make nice with Russia too!
But we have our own gas, our own border and our own deficit. We don't have the money nor the financial interest in getting involved with Ukraine and Russia any more.
When they say “for the children,” they don’t mean “on behalf of the children.” They mean “for the procurement of children.”
You cannot investigate a corrupt politician for taking bribes or other crimes as that might influence an election regardless if the politician is an incumbent or not.
Therefore, always be running for office and steal like h*ll as you can get away with it. Insane
Schiff says they President is not above our laws BUT a Democrats Vice President is.
Sounds to me as though he’s threatening an ally?!
So are Hillary and Bill Clinton.
OMG Me too! I want to watch him perp walk bug eyed in front of the cameras....
I wonder how the impeachment cabal would react now if Russia launched a full scale invasion of Ukraine?
Too late. AG Barr is already looking into Crowd Strike and the origins of the debunked Russia collusion delusion fraud. There is an ACTIVE criminal investigation underway.
There is never going to be a full house vote on impeachment...period.
I thin that Congress views their main job is to provide cover for the people bleeding this country through any foreign country they can corrupt. Truman said it best when he observed that no one gets rich in government unless they are crooks.
I think Congress bank accounts need to be checked quarterly.
To fit his rhetoric, he should have asked them not to release the results of the investigation Trump ordered.
Little prick thinks he is the president. Can Prince Philip take him for that sidecar ride with Prince Andrew?
Asking for a friend.
Quid pro quo, Shifty?
You effeminate POS traitor?
YOU should be investigated
What are you hiding behind your dresses and corsets?
