In the weeks before Hill left government, she had become concerned that figures close to the president, including his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, were trying to pressure Ukrainian officials for personal and political favors.

Perhaps you could post an article that is not anti-President Trump.

Eric Ciaramella is the treasonous Deep Stater who was part of the attempted coup of a sitting President. He needs to be held accountable.

The Washington Post is a unit of the propaganda arm of The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate.

Ciaramella was a politicized operative in the CIA who created a narrative for the Dems in Congress to use to impeach their common political enemy. The sleazy Washingtom Post creates their phony narrative making this stupid kid a conflicted man of conscience.

My goodness. What a ponderous combination puff piece on this POS and throw-it-all-at-the-wall attempted hit piece in Trump this is. I can’t say I read it all.

What I can say first is that we all know his name. I don’t care enough to go back and look but it’s Italian and begins with “c”. Here the Post continues to treat his identity as sacrosanct. Remember Roberts would not allow it even to be mentioned at the impeachment trial. The permanent (though ineffective) shielding of his name is not sanctioned under the law. And compare the treatment of him to the treatment of whistleblowers such as the Hunter IRS whistleblowers who have come forward since, including the FBI whistleblowers. They haven’t exactly been accorded the same respect and
deference .

Which bring me to my point. Libs have what I call “insufferable self-righteousness “ this joker has it in spades. They really do believe their own BS. That’s why we must not become complacent. We must crush them on 11/5 because, to paraphrase, I think C.S. Lewis, their consciences fully approve all the wretched and dishonest things they do

I suspect that the real reason Mr. Trump was impeached, was that the D@mocrat party couldn't afford to have a Republican president take an interest in Ukrainian corruption...

The IC Inspector General only has the power to receive and investigate complaints regarding activities and individuals under the authority of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI).

The President of the United States and his actions are most assuredly not under the authority of the DNI.

So Ciaramella (sp.?), as IC IG, had no authority even to receive the allegations, let alone “investigate.”

Hill has deliberately smeared President Trump and
his advisors with the criminal activities of the
Obama/Biden administrations. The Post/NYT will do or
say anything to protect their pet DemocRATS!
Curses be upon them!

Of all the presidents who’ve been impeached, none has ever been convicted. And of those impeached, only one was impeached for a absolute, verifiable, no getting around it criminal acts, and that was Slick Willy’s perjury before a grand jury, obstruction of justice and witness tampering in the Semen-Stained Blue Dress Affair.

As I read this story and, and more importantly, the comments, I am stuck by a couple of critical points.

1. The so-called Democrats are the badly misplaced focus of the majority of comments. It ain’t just the Dems. It’s them PLUS. It’s the deep state bureaucrats and their like-minded friends in both parties (can anyone say Liz Cheney, Mitch McConnell and a host of others). Not knowing who your enemy is can be deadly.

The Dems have plenty of co-conspirators. They don’t got no monopoly on this sleaze.

2. This bi***ch Fiona Hill is one more huge snake in the grass, along with the wimp Vindman.

In the end, Trump won with the release of the transcript but it didn’t change much of “the rest of the story.”

The “whistleblower” was a Democrat operative who was paid to make up this bs.

P.S. Keep posting these articles, I like to see what the other side are saying.
