You can't ride on the "Trump Train" and stay clean Mikey …. good luck with your senate hopes cause everything … everything … that Trump touches … DIES


McConnell says he envisions Senate trial if House passes articles of impeachment

​

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was among officials who reportedly listened in on the July 25 call.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was among administration officials who listened in on the July 25 phone call between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, a senior State Department official said Monday, a disclosure that ties the State Department more closely to the House impeachment inquiry.

Mr. Pompeo’s participation on the call hasn’t been previously reported. Last week, a State Department official disputed the contention in a complaint filed under federal whistleblower laws by a Central Intelligence Agency officer that another top State Department official, counselor Ulrich Brechbuhl, listened in on the call.

House Democrats have opened a their inquiry focused on Mr. Trump’s dealings with Ukraine, and lawmakers are focusing on the whistleblower complaint and a record of the call released by the administration.

Three House committees on Friday subpoenaed Mr. Pompeo for documents related to the inquiry; the secretary has until Oct. 4 to produce them. Separately, the committees plan to depose five current or former State Department officials regarding Ukraine.

House committees on Monday also subpoenaed Rudy Giuliani, Mr. Trump’s private lawyer, for documents related to his efforts to pressure Ukraine to undertake an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden, the president’s political rival. The panels are seeking documents related to his communications with Trump administration officials about his efforts in Ukraine, as well as any other documents related to that effort.

Mr. Giuliani has given mixed messages on whether he would testify before a House committee. Speaking on ABC News on Sunday, he said he wouldn’t cooperate with House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D., Calif.) but then said “I will consider it.”

Earlier Monday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he would hold a trial in the Senate if the House approved articles of impeachment for Mr. Trump, addressing doubts he may circumvent Senate procedures.

“I would have no choice but to take it up,” the Kentucky Republican said Monday on CNBC. He added: “How long you are on it is a different matter, but I would have no choice but to take it up based on a Senate rule on impeachment.”

It was the first time Mr. McConnell has directly addressed the topic since House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) said the House would begin an impeachment inquiry focused on allegations Mr. Trump sought to use the powers of his office to push Ukraine to investigate Mr. Biden, his Democratic rival, and that White House officials acted to conceal evidence of the president’s actions.

I remember when Giuliani was going over to Ukraine to look for information concerning Biden’s son and Biden himself on President Trump’s behalf. I believe most people was like what in the world was he doing going over there bypassing the State Department to investigate this matter. Giuliani was beside himself that he was doing Trump’s dirty work and didn’t care that if anyone knew why he was going to Ukraine to look for dirt. That shit is crazy because this is classic giving a person enough rope to hang themselves. But Giuliani was so giddy to sit at the big boy table he didn’t care if he became a liability to everyone around him. It was definitely amateur hour from the jump but I guess that up to that point Trump was getting away with everything he probably thought he was going to get away with this. Smdh.

Trump already had Giuliani as the fall guy, too bad Giuliani wasn’t in on it and that’s why you see him now throwing the State department and Sec of State under the bus talking about how he got text convos and recordings

Him caving and holding that unanimous vote may be a sign that the turtle shell is starting to crack ...
