So, apparently, one person calling it a “theory” makes it “debunked” as if that peron’s opinion - Fiona Hill - ranks superior and definitive to anyone else’s view?

Well, O.K., I realize NBC has to follow the party line, and commit their network revenue 24/7 as in-kind contributions to the Dim’s.

I turned off the “News” back in the 80’s. After much international travel I knew they could not be trusted. took me another decade to determine why.

“Ukraine, not Russia, interfered in the 2016 presidential election”

This is a true statement, Ukraine didn’t interfere. They were assisting the current corrupt regime here and being told what to do.

Clearly, BOTH Russia and Ukraine attempted to interfere in the 2016 election. The UK interfered with our elections. Italy and Australia have apologized, advising they thought they were receiving legitimate requests from U.S. intelligence services.

Russia has been attempting to interfere with U.S. elections for a century. It’s annoying, but baked in. Usually it has been *heavily* in support of the Democrats, but always in support of domestic chaos. In this case, Russia appears to have spent at most about $4 million, including for a lot of useless stuff - in a context of $1.5 Billion officially spent by the Clinton campaign.

That said, Ukraine had only a minor effect - acting in concert with the Clinton campaign - and Russia had what appears to be even less of an effect than usual. The main effect was towards getting Manafort charged for crimes and tax avoidance irrelevant to the campaign.

The definition of “debunked” is anything the Democrats deny.

Crowdstrike is owned by an officer of The Atlantic Council. It is right up there with the Brookings institute as being an enemy of Trump. A now famous member of Brookings, Fiona Hill was brought onto the white house as a mole by McMaster.

A KEY player in all of these Ukraine crimes is GEORGE SOROS.

Has GEORGE SOROS' houses been hit with a PRE-DAWN RAID yet?

Maybe ABC has never heard of Paul Manafort, Fusion GPS, Crowdstrike??

Why would ABC allow 10 yr olds to write pieces for them in the first place.

I think of all the ones talking, she un-nerved me the most. Maybe it was her mouth, her voice, accent...smirk...

Maybe it was knowledge of her prior writings that called for NOT giving military aid to Ukraine.

In general, none of these people really impressed me, and some down right were scary...

Kent, Taylor, Hill and Holmes strike me as not the best people to protect our assets and best interests. I found them very naïve and ill informed about things, that most of us knew about here.

Sondland, was a nincompoop. I mean a total bozo.

Morrison, impressed me the most, but he and Volker came across as never Trumpers for the most part.

collectively they propbably represent over $5 million dollars in annual salaries, when you add their expense accounts and support staff.

I have never actually read about how it was “debunked”. Just that it was. Says who?

It was “debunked” by the people who are deeply involved in the coup. The main takeaway from the hearings is that it is now verified that there is a Deep State, they worship George Soros, and they are extremely self-righteous and open in their disdain for anyone who tries to stop them.

Conspiracy theory is the favorite word of the synagogue of satan. Hopefully soon, what they have done to this country will come to light.
