CLAIM: If President Donald Trump really cared about corruption in Ukraine, he would have raised it before. But he never did.
VERDICT: False. Trump raised it specifically — even lecturing the former Ukrainian president about it in 2017. Lead House impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) claimed on Tuesday in President Donald Trump’s Senate impeachment trial that Trump did not care about corruption in Ukraine except when it allegedly involved his potential rival in the 2020 presidential election, former Vice President Joe Biden.
Schiff said:
You might ask yourself: if the president was so concerned about corruption, why didn’t he did he do that [withhold aid] in 2017? Why didn’t he do that in 2018? Why was it only 2019, there was a problem? Was there no corruption in Ukraine in 2017? Was there no corruption in Ukraine in 2018? No — Ukraine has always battled corruption. It wasn’t the presence or lack of corruption from one year to another. It was the presence of Joe Biden as a potential candidate for president. That was the key change in 2019. That made all the difference.
In fact, President Trump did raise the issue of corruption in Ukraine in 2017, the first year of his administration. He did so prior to releasing the Javelin anti-tank missiles, the lethal aid that President Barack Obama had refused to provide.

Why is Schiff above the law. He gets to lie to the senate.
Schtt: “Ukraine has always battled corruption”
We know...
“In April 2014, Devon Archer, a former senior adviser to the John Kerry 2004 presidential campaign, and Hunter Biden, an attorney and the son of then-US vice president Joe Biden, joined the board.[32][36] Archer left the company in 2018[37] and Biden left in April 2019.”

A communist lied? Say it ain’t so.
Schiff is a proven liar..
Made up president’s phone call with Ukraine President
Said he didn’t know who the fake whistleblower was..
Said he had undisputed proof that Trump was guilty.
Let’s compile a list of Schiff’s lies... it will be long.
Isn’t Schiff under some kind of oath?
Not unlike Pinocchio, except instead of his nose growing when lying,
Schiff’s eyes come out of their sockets.
What bothers me the most about watching the impeachment is the level of stupidity and lack of integrity of the Democrats.
It makes me wonder how long our country can last with people like this making decisions for our country.
If it were not for my faith in God I would not have hope.
Is there any crime with lying to the Senate?
Schiff-head is NEVER UNDER OATH. Yes, it is true. This psychopath can say anything he wants and he knows the filthy MSM will not report it.
Watched 30 seconds today, all I could stand, all interrupted my wife watching it while I ranted.
Schitt? The only time the sob lies is when his lips are moving.
Nah...compile a list of his “truths”...much easier
The media seem positively giddy about how good impeachment will be for their ratings.
I don’t know what they are smoking. This is horrible television and I am bored with it already. The average Joe will hear a summary of the day and shrug.
What a waste of time and energy!
In a just society the networks would go broke and fade into oblivion. In our society they may go broke and the gooberment will bail them out with what was our money.
Don’t worry. They’re looking stupid on national tv. Only democrats watch it
