You're talking about counter narcotics and humanitarian aid, not loan guarantees for economic development.

No, I don't believe there was an investigation of Burisma active or pending at the time.
You do love your conspiracy theories though.

i ask questions, regardless of politics. you support everything from the left, nothing from
the right.
if that’s not true, please tell
us some major policy issues, where you don’t agree with the left.

I don't know why you think Biden is done, if anything the odds of impeachment just went way up.

I was not aware he had extorted a foreign government. Certainly this can not be good. Let’s launch another investigation.
Oh,and did you mean lose or loss? Spellcheck,cheaters ,or just extra stupid still?

If this story doesn't change direction and quick it very well could be. Looks like the whistle blower might testify this week.

@RepAdamSchiff
We have been informed by the whistleblower’s counsel that their client would like to speak to our committee and has requested guidance from the Acting DNI as to how to do so.
We‘re in touch with counsel and look forward to the whistleblower’s testimony as soon as this week.

you can google it. it’s being reported that the whistleblower didn’t hear the call firsthand.
but as we see with kavanaugh, hearsay is sufficient to punish conservatives
trump also said he’s release the transcript of the call.

Meanwhile Trump tweets: I am currently at the United Nations representing our Country, but have authorized the release tomorrow of the complete, fully declassified and unredacted transcript of my phone conversation with President Zelensky of Ukraine....
And Michael McFaul tweets: This is a big mistake -- terrible precedent, as no foreign leaders in future will speak candidly with the president on any future calls. Don't release Trump-Zelensky or Trump-Putin transcripts of calls. Instead, release whistleblower's complaint to Congress, as required by law.
The complaint is rumored to be about multiple instances, one transcript does not tell the whole story. Perhaps that's the plan?

so the rumors that there were multiple calls is good enough for you, but you question the rumor that the whistleblower didn’t hear the call. interesting.

Reported on Faux, repeated by the Town Hall, Daily Wire, McCarthy, Nunes, Trump and the rest of the chorus.
Odd that the IG, a Trump appointee felt it was credible and urgent.

Someone with access to sensitive information like that isn't hearsay Jim, there's no way the IG would have deemed the complaint urgent if it wasn't sourced.
I haven't done this in a while but I'm mooting your post.

look at percentage of favorable/unfavorable coverage of obama and trump, for fox and every other American tv station.
fox has a major clown in prime
time, sean hannity. cnn and msnbc have nothing but sean hannity-like ideologues, throughout prime
time.

i’ll ask again for a list of
meaningful policies, for which you disagree with liberals. or admit there aren’t any.
i think conservatives are dead wrong on gay marriage and the death penalty, and i think conservatives are too fanatically opposed to gun control.
you call me a trumplican. show me you’re anywhere near that independent.

it’s hearsay if the person reporting it, isn’t the one with access to the information. if they are repeating what someone else claims they said or heard, it’s hearsay. like the last kavanaugh accusation. in that case, hearsay was enough for all the major presidential
candidates to demand his impeachment.
let’s have the hearing, one more circus.
any chance you can ever list things you disagree with liberals
on? or at least admit that you wouldn’t dare disagree with obama
on anything, which is why you disappeared here for a month after the election, hiding under your bed s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g your thumb.

How do you know that? So you think a non-partisan IG is going to forward a potentially impeachable or criminal complaint without being damn sure it's credible? This is stretching reality.

It's a silly question as most issues fall on a spectrum. As for your other remark my brain was focused elsewhere for a bit, had nothing to do with the election.

i don’t know if it was hearsay, but it’s being reported. that’s why i asked you a question, that’s what that “?” thing at the end of a sentence implies.
it’s not remotely a silly question. it gets at whether or not you have the ability to think for yourself, or if you’re the exact mirror image of sean hannity.
do you think i believe your absence after the election, was a coincidence? give me a little credit.

More likely it's because if the GOP looks like they're engaged in a cover up they'll lose the Senate.

in all seriousness, have you seen which seats are up? favorable
to which side? 2018 was a dream board for the gop and they didn’t do much. i’m guessing the 33 seats up this time are more favorable to democrats.

I heard they've tried to impeach every republican president since Eisenhower so this should not surprise anyone....
