I’m glad that Ukraine is cracking down on corruption!
Drain the Swamp!

Does NPR get government money?
If they do I'll happily quadruple my current monthly contribution to help them continue to exist without government support.
i love it when people who haven’t touched the Mueller report and just watch Fox news dismiss Russian intervention, the Trump campaign’s abnormal amount of Russian contacts, obvious call outs (“Russia if you’re listening...”), numerous campaign friends in prison/gearing up for trials, and Trump’s 11 cases of obstruction of justice as “Russian Fiasco.”
Lol “Fiasco.” Riiiiight.
"It can't happen here". Until it does....

It’s almost—and call me crazy— like the gangster government of Donald Trump, the supine Republicans in his Senate caucus, his eager political fellators in the House, and the degraded claque of Trump-right media ball-washers have decided to go all-in on the new Trump thugocracy now aborning.
And why not? The decision by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to make the Senate impeachment trial of Donald Trump an exercise in raw power politics is grinding toward its foregone conclusion.
The creation of a new form of American government, where the executive branch is permanently and utterly above the law, oversight, and accountability is upon us, and the exoneration of Trump in the Senate is the moment that historians will look back on and say, “There. Right then. That was the tipping point.”
The weaponization of the departments of Justice, State, and Treasury into formidable arms of the Trump Organization is nearly complete. Bill Barr isn’t an Attorney General; he’s the Enforcer General of the unitary and puissant executive branch.
And it’s all because Republicans in the Senate don’t have the courage God gave the common rat.
Senate Republicans are going to let Trump skate, and permanently realign the balance of power in the process, because they’re too chicken**** to stand up to his tweets, too terrified of a primary by some MAGA nutters, and too dumb to understand they’re ushering in an era that looks like nothing we’ve ever seen in this country.
This is a one-way ticket, a ratchet toward a system that rewards a culture of threats by bullies and thugs like Trump with their desired outcome. It peels back the cowardice and weak-dick posturing of the Senate GOP like little else. They’re willing to ditch it all because they’re scared.
This ranting is utter misinformation. If you want to impeach a sitting president, you need to allege and produce evidence of an actual crime. Alleging executive abuse of power over investigating Ukraine corruption is approaching the absurd.

Please more accurately describe what Trump was attempting to do in Ukraine, because "investigating Ukraine corruption" is an entirely dishonest way of phrasing that.This ranting is utter misinformation.

An investigation of Ukrainian corruption would be run through the State Department, not his personal lawyer.
An investigation would include an investigation, not simply an announcement of an investigation.
An investigation would not be a condition to release previously approved aid that IS NOT the executive's prerogative to withhold.
Try to be honest. Even a small attempt at honesty would look way better on you.

Face it. The entire Russian fiasco was very, very different than the story the people who were pushing it claimed it was going to be.
