Just off the back of the envelope ...


* Giuliani blabs to the media he'll be investigating Hunter Biden early 2019.
* Congress appropriates $390mn of aid to the the Ukraine in Feb 2019.
* The US Pentagon says Ukraine's done a lot to clean up corruption.
* Trump stalls aid to Ukraine due to unknown circumstances in June after saying they would in May.
* Pence suddenly cancels on Zelensky's inauguration in May.
* In mid July, Giuliani is connected to Zelensky's top advisor through Volker.
* On July 25th, Donald Trump asks "for a favor though" to investigate the Bidens on a phone call with Zelensky listened in by the national security advisor to Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo, etc.
* On 9/9, there are text messages between Sondland/Taylor writing about withholding financial assistance for political benefit. Let's not forget, that was the day the complaint was most likely known in the WH.
* Two days later, the financial aid was released to the Ukraine.

There are texts, actions, phone transcripts, and lord know what else to support the timeline and actions. The our President doubles down saying he wants both China and Ukraine to investigate his political rival. Furthermore, Pompeo at first denies knowing about the call. Barr is running around the world looking for lord knows what. Giuliani, Trump's personal lawyer, says the State Dept asked him to investigate Biden (his story changes every minute).

This is just off the back of my head. There's so much information, it's hard to keep up. Read the texts. Read the phone transcripts. Look at the actions of the involved parties. Look at the timeline. There is no spin. Even Trump can't spin the underlying issue. He asked a foreign government to give dirt on a political rival using taxpayer money as financial leverage. That's why he's attacking the messenger and process, but not the underlying issue.

Use some common sense. JUST LOOK AT THE FACTS. Where is the line from delusion to reality?
