Todd Ruger, Roll Call: Out of the impeachment, into the fallout
The trial ended Wednesday with acquittal, but investigations and court fights continue
The acquittal of President Donald Trump ended his impeachment trial Wednesday the way it always appeared it would, but the battle’s lasting fallout is just beginning for congressional power, the nation’s political landscape and ongoing legal fights between Trump and House Democrats.

ReplyDeleteFLASHBACK: Top Romney Advisor Served on Board of Burisma with Hunter Biden
ReplyDeletehttps://pjmedia.com/trending/flashback-top-romney-advisor-served-on-board-of-burisma-with-hunter-biden/
Was the advisor qualified or an access man?
I'd say "access man." The corrupt chump Ukrainian coup plotters gained access to American muscle by bribing these men. The coup plotters probably threw some nonsense about "democracy" into the sales pitch as well. Ideologues are easy to manipulate.
DeleteIn pursuing this policy, our leadership exacerbated Cold War 2. This is a war we don't need, can't readily afford, may not be able to win, and even if we do "win" we gain nothing of value.
Esau sold his birthright for some stew when he was starving Hunter Biden sold out his country for 50K month. I wonder how much it took for the Romney associate to sell us out.
