    So here is the height of hypocrisy by the left. They were all for looking into alleged corruption by Trump leading up to the 2016 election but now think it is a crime to look into democrat corruption leading up to the 2016 election.

    AG Barr and Durham just visited Rome to talk to Italian secret service and listen to taped testimony by Misfud that the Mueller report claimed worked for Russian intelligence yet it turned out Misfud was working for Western intelligence. Misfud set Papadopolous up for the kick off of the investigation into Trump.

    Now we have an obvious quid pro quo by Biden pressuring another country to dance for the Obama administration and the lefties are claiming any investigation into corruption leading up to the 2016 election is a crime.

    You just cannot make this stuff up.

    Any investigation CANNOT be dependent on the Ukrainians getting their approved military aid...

    There's a famous latin phrase for that, but it escapes me at the moment...

    AG Barr is legally conflicted from that "investigation."

    You know, the one which aims to fabricate dirt on trump's domestic political opponent.

    Sure it can, you defend Biden threatening Ukraine unless they did his bidding but think that it is corrupt to look into that.

    I'm curious if anyone who supports Trump is willing to say that they're fine with these texts.

    Of course you cannot identify why. Biden bragged about pressuring Ukraine to do his bidding but now you are claiming it is a crime to look into that. Such hypocrisy.

    Well, of course, since it applies to you and you are blind to it.

    If you say you're fine with Bidens, I'll say I'm fine with Trump.

    Curious if you'll do that.

    Multiple domestic and international investigators have found zero evidence of wrongdoing by the Bidens.

    The fact that trump has suddenly jumped on this ship at the same time as polling demonstrates him losing to Biden in a general election demonstrates his desperation.

    The fact that Republicans continue to excuse trump's willingness to request an investigation from a foreign leader against his domestic political opponent while simultaneously and unilaterally holding hundreds of millions in military aid or by refusing to publicly discuss politically damaging matters for that country demonstrates their loyalty to trump before the United States.

    Do it. Investigate them all. But for the love of God, stop pretending that Trump gets a pass when you obviously don't give out passes to the politicians you don't like.

    Yes, I can identify.

    Trump mentioned AG Barr, by name, in the phone conversation wherein he requested Ukraine look into the Bidens. That makes Barr a fact witness. You can not lead an investigation while also being a fact witness to allegations of wrongdoing.

    No, I am perfectly capable of identifying the numerous differences between those situations.

    Trump requested an investigation from a foreign government against his domestic political opponent while he simultaneously and unilaterally held up hundreds of millions in military aid and then tried to hide, lie about, and obstruct the investigation.

    A fact witness to the abuse of power allegation against trump.

    Requesting a foreign leader to investigate your domestic rival while you simultaneously and unilaterally held up hundreds of millions in military aid and then try to hide, lie about, and obstruct the investigation is an abuse of power.
