It's a refreshing novelty to have a member of the media cut through the BS instead of fomenting it... The MSM & Dem. leadership are bound to squirm in reaction to these series of tweet by WSJ's Kimberly Strassel. Perhaps the biggest lie being spun is that the "favor" is in reference to Biden - Clearly the favor is in reference to investigating the 2016 election tampering. There is a contextual flow to the conversation, ya don't just get to cut & paste snippets in creating 'a narrative' but not 'the narrative'... 1) Having read DOJ’s Trump-Ukraine release, here’s the real story: This is another internal attempt to take out a president, on the basis of another non-smoking-gun. — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 2)As to call transcript itself: Trump’s actual “favor” is that Ukraine look backward, to what happened in the 2016 election. This is a legitimate ask, since election meddling looks to have come from both Russia and Ukraine. — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 3)(Indeed, this is a big enough issue that we find out this morning that U.S. Attorney John Durham is looking at what role the Ukraine played in the FBI investigation.) — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 4)It is actually Zelensky who brings up Rudy Giuliani—saying they can’t wait to “meet him.” And it is Zelensky who references “that investigation,” as he goes on to promise that “all investigations will be done openly and candidly.” — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 5)Trump says “good” and expresses worries that a “good” prosecutor was “shut down.” Mentions “Biden’s son” and that Biden bragged he “stopped the prosecution.” Ends that bit with “It sounds horrible to me.” — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 6)Trump's several references to Giuliani are mostly to say what a great guy he is. He says he will have Giuliani and AG Barr call. He asks Zelensky to speak/work with both. — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 7)And, never mind, because: DOJ in statement says the President has not spoken to AG about investigating Biden and has not asked the AG to contact the Ukraine. Also, Barr has not communicated with Ukraine—“on this or any subject.” — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 Meanwhile, the IG back in August referred this to DOJ as potential violation of campaign finance law, based on whistleblower complaint. Criminal Division evaluated and determined no violation: “All relevant components of the Department agreed with this legal conclusion.” — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 9) Whistleblower? Look at this nugget, referenced in the OLC opinion. The IG’s review found "some indicia of an arguable political bias on the part of the Complainant in favor of a rival political candidate.” — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 10)Media got all this so wrong. And Democrats look all the more partisan and radical to have moved toward impeachment. — Kimberley Strassel (@KimStrassel) September 25, 2019 Now that's a Smack down, lol. https://americanlookout.com/wall-st...s-democrat-talking-points-on-ukraine-debacle/
Of course not. He had someone else relay the message. Rudy probably did it like Lewendowski was supposed to with Sessions.
The Dems love taking things completely out of context, and spread misinformation. The ironic part in their lust for "something" - it might have backfired a great deal, and exposed Hunter Biden to great liability. Something that might have been able to be handled under the radar is bright and exposed now, and it calls into question Joe's motives in withholding billions in aid A lot of what we are seeing now, after the transcripts have been released is deflection by the left
Well there you have it! "Someone else" probably relayed the message! (Who?? Do you have proof??) And "Rudy probably did it"! ("Probably"??) "Someone" and "probably" definitely sound impeachment worthy
Wouldn't ya know, the battle rages on even within the same FOX network, pathetic (Shep), lol... Yet again, telling 'A story' & not 'The story'... FOX NEWS CIVIL WAR? Tucker Carlson Hits Back at Crybaby Shephard Smith (WATCH)
The democrats went full impeachment on a news report of second hand information. I don't think they care what happens to Biden if they can take down Trump since Trump's DOJ is looking into all the shenanigans that went on during 2016. They want that covered up.
It's basically a nothing burger recipe. She's effectively destroyed the narrative... because that precisely what progressive MSM and Democcrats are pushing... a narrative, it's a legit fake news festival.
No, you don't get it. Trump is the whistleblower who blew the whistle on his own phone call because he is secretly working for the Democratic progressives that would like to see Biden out of the primary!
The Dems don't care if Biden is sunk. They don't like him anyhow as he isn't "progressive" enough. They don't think he can beat Trump (true, Trump would tear him apart), he's embarrassing with his gaffes or whatever those are, and the other presidential candidates expect to get some of his supporters. I love it when liberals consume themselves!
