BIDEN AND UKRAINE

I had not planned to rant about this but the lunacy has gotten to the point where it is necessary. First, there is video of Joe Biden saying that if Ukraine didn’t fire the prosecutor looking into the company paying his son $50,000 a month to be on its board even though Hunter Biden had absolutely no experience or expertise in the gas industry, he would withhold a billion dollars from Ukraine.

Now the left is saying that Trump violated something by suggesting that Ukraine should investigate Hunter Biden. There is absolutely no evidence that Trump promised a quid pro quo if they did. The “whistleblower “ who bought this issue up apparently wasn’t even on the phone call at issue. He heard something second hand and this is the supposed basis for the complaint. That’s not how it’s supposed to work. (As an aside, I have litigated several whistleblower cases and none would have been allowed to go forward with an allegation that was heresay.).

But the reason I am ranting is because the statute that the left and idiots like Romney, who should be primaried as soon as possible, are saying requires that the whistleblower allegations need to be provided to Congress, a swamp composed of Schiff and Nadler, doesn’t apply. The statute covers people raising issues about actions of people under and repotting to the Director of National Intelligence. Trump doesn’t report to the DNI. It’s the other way around.

Just remember when you hear this nonsense that what they’re about is absolutely false.
