Humbling, really, to hear her read a synopsis of her professional resume before the likes of Nunes and Jordan. They should be ashamed of themselves.
Is it possible that Zelensky was involved in her ouster? Any evidence of it either way?
Alternatively, any chance that Zelensky had something to do with the quid pro quo story breaking? It makes sense that his best play after being pressure by Trump to play along or lose the aid was to out Trump via back channels and cutouts. A smart, patriotic, honest leader would have done that.
Ah, but they won’t be, utterly lacking that gene. They would have made wonderful Nazis.
Can’t wait to see Nunez and Jordan get put in their places on live TV.
Trump’s heinous, corrupt administration is nothing more than a mafia organization. It’s Cosa Nostra with the leader literally being a “Don”. We should never be surprised by the criminality, the deceit, the thuggery that Trump and his minions engage in; any more than we’d be surprised to find out that Al Capone had someone beaten or killed.
