White House releases transcript of Trumps first call with Ukraines Volodymyr Zelensk
The White House on Friday released the transcript of President Trumps first call with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky in which he congratulated him on a fantastic election.
The president had promised several times to release the transcript of the April 12 call, which he described as more important that the one about two weeks later in which Trump asked Zelensky to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.
That call prompted a whistleblower complaint that led Democrats to launch an impeachment inquiry. The probe centers on whether Trump abused his power by withholding almost $400 million in security aid to put pressure on the US ally.
Id like to congratulate you on a job well done, and congratulations on a fantastic election, Trump told Zelensky.
As you can see, we tried very hard to do our best. We had you as a great example, the Ukrainian leader said.
Trump continued: I think you will do a great job. I have many friends from Ukraine and they think frankly expected you to win. And its really an amazing thing that youve done.
I guess, in a way, I did something similar. Were making tremendous progress in the US. We have the most tremendous economy ever. I just wanted to congratulate you. I have no doubt you will be a fantastic president.
Zelensky said his country is an independent country, and independent Ukraine were going to do everything for the people.
You are, as I said, a great example. We are hoping we can expand on our job as you did. You will always, also, be a great example for many. You are a great example for our new managers.

“Uhh, say, wasnt it Eve who ate the apple?”
They both helped.

Well so far in these two days it's a series of... “I don't know”....and now ....”I felt”......
Shiffs strategy today: Feel-ey touch-ey empathy cards in play.
Perino does not belong among this group. Shes not a Never Trumpers.

Personally I don't use that silly phrase, "Never Trumper". It is meaningless and vacant. Do people sign up for that lame designation?
Dana cares about her dog, her dog, her dog, and her family. She has no REAL interest in Donald Trump's success with this nation's future.
She is a self interested little woman ....... who loves her dog.
God .... I hope that dog lives forever.
The author knows his theology. It was Adam’s sin and not Eve’s that led to the downfall of the human race. Eve was deceived by the serpent. She did eat the apple first and then gave it to Adam. Adam knew exactly what he was doing so therefore Adam’s sin was far greater.
Eve ate the apple first. She then got Adam to eat the apple. Eve is excused because she’s a woman. Adam should have known better.

I've never really read that story in the "good book". It's not my way.
But let me ask you. What the heck difference does it make who ate the apple first?
;-)
Adam should have barbecued that rib...
Trump: Let’s tell the truth about the Bidens, Pelosi’s, obama, Clinton’s, Romney, Kerry etc.
Evil sounding name Volodymyr Zelensky: Ya
Democrats: Let’s frame and impeach Donald Trump!!
“Uhh, say, wasnt it Eve who ate the apple?”
I thought the same thing.
I have absolutely wondered that same thing. Slow Joe trying to create cover?

CAUTION: A Memorandum of a Telephone Conversation (TELCON) is not a verbatim transcript of a discussion.
That’s correct about the DNC hiring Crowdstrike. The DNC didn’t let FBI investigators examine the server.
One of the founders of Crowdstrike is Russian born Dmitri Alperovitch for what that’s worth.
Giuliani has stated he already had sworn affidavits, implying that he had them before this began. The phone call between Trump and Zelensky was not a good reason to attempt to harm the President, since it is unlikely the Democrats and Schiff were unaware of what Giuliani and Trump's people had already found. Their move to use this for impeachment was countered before this started.
If I were Biden, I'd be mad as hell at Schiff over this.
May I copy this and post to Facebook?
I have no doubt
Be my guest!
Good luck, FB will probably fire you.
