They now want to bring up AmbJohnBolton book. When will they concede that there's No Defense for the ongoing CORRUPTION tactics of realDonaldTrump his crimes supersede anything the country has ever seen as He singlehandedly destroys the legacy of the entire GOP and theirs🗽

Supposed reports. The media has been pretty good at reporting 'bombshells' that turn out to be nothing. Ukraine got the aid. No investigation happened.

The American people know the truth. What the Republicans in the Senate need to decide is what their legacy will be. Enabling a tyrant that thinks he can do whatever he wants and be despised wherever you go, or be someone who is a hero that upheld Democracy for future generations?

WH legal team sure is failing Trump and GOP come elections.

Hysterical editorial and makes me think twice about reading the journal. “Trump changed his mind about the aid?” You forgot to mention AFTER HE GOT CAUGHT AND CONGRESS WAS INVESTIGATING. Paid propaganda?

Spit the truth, if they more truth.. careful what you wish for. The truth is there, we see it. More info will expose further corruption in the previous administration.

Funny how Bolton’s mustache is what finally took down trump.

Trump impeachment trial live updates: President's defense team attacks BidensTrump attorney Pam Bondi brings the argument back to Hunter Biden and the questions from Republicans about whether his role with the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma was a conflict of interest with his father's position in the Obama administration. The sheer audacity of Trump supporters criticizing nepotism is just frankly beyond me. Undeniable. Pam Bondi alleges that Biden's pressure campaign to dismiss a Ukrainian prosecutor was part of an effort to protect his son, Hunter. But the prosecutor faced criticism from domestic and international anti-corruption advocates, who say Biden was justified.
