Dems Jumping the Gun on Impeachment

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi once famously said of the Affordable Care Act, "We have to pass the bill so we can see what's in it." Yesterday, she jumped the gun again by caving in to her radical wing and announcing that the Dems in the House were going to begin an impeachment inquiry against President Trump. Since the Russian collusion thing never panned out, Michael Cohen never panned out, and Michael Avenatti and Stormy Daniels never panned out, the desperate Dems have now come up with this whistle blower complaint, which apparently has to do with a phone call Trump placed to the president of Ukraine asking him to investigate the whole Burisma, Joe and Hunter Biden scandal. That, according to Pelosi et all, is high crimes and misdemeanors meriting impeachment.  What Pelosi and the compliant media want to overlook is the verified fact that then-VP Biden, while in Ukraine, threatened the then-Ukrainian president with loss of one billion dollars in US loan guarantees if he didn't fire the chief prosecutor investigating Burisma and its strange relationship with Biden's son, Hunter, who was put on Burisma's board of directors to the tune of some 3 million dollars over three years-even though Hunter had no expertise in Ukraine or energy. The prosecutor wanted to interview Hunter, but that all went away when he was fired and his replacement closed the case.

Today, the White House has declassified the transcripts of the call between Trump and the current Ukrainian president. It indicates that while Trump requested a re-opening of the case, there was no pro quid quo and no threat. To be accurate, there is no recording and it is based on the memories of those who were present during the call. So you can attack that all you want, but the Democrats are still left without any proof of wrongdoing by Trump, who was fully justified in requesting an investigation. It's a different story with Biden, who stupidly bragged about his own actions at a public appearance and was captured on videotape!! There's your smoking gun! In effect, the Dems are accusing Trump of doing something for which they lack proof while hard proof does exist for Biden's transgressions on behalf of his shady son. In addition, the so-called whistle blower reportedly has no first-hand information, rather second and third hand information. But the Democrats in the House are going full speed ahead, stupidly announcing an impeachment inquiry before the facts are in.
