REP. LIEU: [Taylor’s] opening statement, which is now in the public domain, is devastating to Donald Trump. It shows, in fact, that there were two quid pro quos – that Ukraine had not only to have to go and investigate the Bidens, they also had to go ahead and make it public which essentially so that the Trump campaign could then use that publicly, and they also had to investigate the DNC and that crazy conspiracy theory for the 2016 elections. It was very damning for the president. - PoliticusUSA

We are now beyond impeachment, that is a foregone conclusion. Now we're looking at how badly tRump as the Republican Brand's albatross, stains conservatives everywhere and for how many generations.

Republicans are proving to be the truly diabolical criminals we've all been warned to look out for.

1. That "crazy conspiracy theory" was being pumped up to shift blame for 2016

away from Russia and onto Ukraine. Then all Russian sanctions could be lifted.

5. remember TrumPutin delaying sanctions?

Aiding and giving comfort to our enemy, Vlad.

Trump and McConnell are guilty of treason as defined in the U.S. Constitution.

2. Here is the scary part.

Trump planned a Hot News Flash on CNN to amplify his phony claims. So,is the CEO Zucker in this criminal operation?

We do know,that Zucker was one of the Guy's who worked the Apprentice B.S. thing. Was it not CNN who went wall to wall with the Clinton E-Mails after Tobin wrote his NYTimes piece?

4. Trump and his mob underlings

wanted Zelenskyy to make a statement about opening an investigation of the Bidens during an interview on CNN. That would have been part of the “deal.”

This was a shakedown and it’s absolutely nuts.
