Yeah, this seems significant:
Of course, the key GOP talking point for the past two weeks has been “no quid pro quo” — and they’ve repeated it ad nauseam.
That seems to be out the window now.
And, of course, we all know that Trump was holding up aid to Ukraine as leverage against its government — not because Trump is suddenly concerned about “corruption.”
Mother Jones:
The Trump administration appears to have been holding two things over the head of Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, as it demanded investigations into both the Bidens and the origins of the FBI’s Russia investigation. One was military aid, which Trump held up until late summer. The other was a potential face-to-face meeting between Trump and Zelensky, something the new Ukrainian government seemed to want badly in order to showcase its close relationship with the United States.
Corrupt to the core. That’s our Trumpy.
Is Trump still chafing your arse-cheeks? Then Dear F*cking Lunatic: 101 Obscenely Rude Letters to Donald Trump and its breathlessly awaited sequel Dear F*cking Moron: 101 More Letters to Donald Trump by Aldous J. Pennyfarthing are the pick-me-up you need! Reviewers have called these books “hysterically funny,” “cathartic,” and “laugh-out-loud” comic relief. And they’re way, way cheaper than therapy.
