Trump’s attempt to extort Ukraine's leader followed a months-long fight inside the admin that sidelined national security officials and empowered Trump loyalists — like Rudy Giuliani and Victoria Toensing — to exploit US' relationship with Ukraine.
#Maddow wapo.st/2lly8eD
The sequence involved the abrupt removal of the US ambassador to Ukraine, the circumvention of senior NSC officials, and the suspension of $400M of aid — all as key officials struggled to piece together Giuliani’s activities from news reports.

Recall from May: Trump allies have been attacking US Ambassador to Ukraine, career Foreign Service officer Marie Yovanovitch, as part of their ongoing effort to link Ukraine to Joe Biden to help Trump's 2020 reelection effort.

As @RitaKonaev notes, "Mattis had no problem disagreeing w/Obama about transgender people in the military or women in combat but won’t criticize Trump for asking foreign powers for dirt about political opponents.

This isn’t about him being above politics. This is his politics."
Excellent point here, and makes you wonder why Mattis' deference to the commander-in-chief is selectively applied in this manner 🤔
7 freshman House Ds, all with natsec experience: "If true, we believe these actions represent an impeachable offense ...

We call on our colleagues in Congress to consider the use of all congressional authorities available, including inherent contempt."

#Giuliani Renews Pressure On #Ukraine to Investigate Trump’s Political Opponents nyti.ms/31TI2ne
Amazing. #Giuliani says Kurt Volker & the State Dept helped him press #Ukraine to launch criminal probes of Trump's political opponents. Even if they're just trying to placate Rudy, this shows how profoundly corrosive it is to have corruption & moral bankruptcy at the top of USG.
@kenvogel @jheil There's so much grotesquely wrong with Giuliani's abuses in Ukraine, not the least of which is HIS own well-known work for suspected organized crime & corruption in Eastern Europe. @anders_aslund names a few of them here ⬇️
