🚨BREAKING: in late August, the WH trade rep withdrew a recommendation to restore some trade privileges to #Ukraine after John Bolton warned that Trump likely would oppose any act that benefited #Ukraine.

BOLTON must testify‼️

#Ukrainegate @RepAdamSchiff
washingtonpost.com/business/econo…
🔥This abrupt reversal on #Ukraine trade occurred in the SAME time frame that Trump and his cronies withheld $391,000,000 of aid to #Ukraine to pressure Ukraine to investigate his political rivals.

It is not clear if Trump directed Bolton to intervene or was even aware.🧐
Bolton’s intervention came as ”Trump was telling WH aides that any assistance for #Ukraine depended upon (its president) publicly stating that his government would investigate Hunter Biden’s role as a board member of...Burisma,” according to Ambassador Bill Taylor’s testimony.🔥
So not only did Trump withhold $391,000,000 of aid, his administration worked to HURT #Ukraine on trade.🤬

Bolton MUST testify before @HouseDemocrats and answer: “What did the president know, and when did he know it.”

TOTAL #corruption.

💣BOOM💣

Decorated @USArmy veteran LTC Alexander Vindman plans to tell @HouseDemocrats that he heard @realDonaldTrump ask #Ukraine’s president to investigate @JoeBiden, and reported it to a superior out of what he called a “sense of duty.”

What a hero!🇺🇸
nytimes.com/2019/10/28/us/…
🔥Vindman—the 1st WH official to testify who listened in on the July 25 #Ukrainegate call—is the TOP #Ukraine expert on the NSC and raised internal objections TWICE about how Trump and his cronies were treating #Ukraine.

#Ukrainegate
Vindman: “I did not think it was proper to demand that a foreign government investigate a US citizen...I realized that if #Ukraine pursued an investigation into the Bidens and Burisma it would likely be interpreted as a partisan play” that would HURT #Ukraine.

To help TRUMP.🤬

🚨BREAKING: Democratic presidential campaigns targeted by #Russia🇷🇺on Instagram were UNAWARE until Facebook announced it publicly—with NO forewarning by FB or the government.

Trump has NO strategy to combat it, because he NEEDS it to win.🤬

#TrumpRussia

“Democratic campaign officials said they were stunned to **learn from media reports** that their candidates had been potentially affected and wondered why they had not been briefed by Facebook or law enforcement.”

Yeah, why weren’t they forewarned?🤔

washingtonpost.com/politics/as-ru…
Many of the #Russian🇷🇺accounts set their location to **swing states** critical to the 2020 election.

🚨Red alert to friends in #Florida, #Wisconsin, #Michigan, #Pennsylvania, and elsewhere. These #Russian posers are coming for us.🤬

🔥QUID PRO QUO🔥

At least 3 officials—Bill Taylor, Fiona Hill, Gordon Sondland—told @HouseDemocrats: a WH visit for #Ukraine’s president was explicitly conditioned on his agreeing to investigations that could help Trump’s re-election.

#Ukrainegate
nbcnews.com/politics/trump…
🚨When Trump sycophant Gordon Sondland was asked point blank, under oath, whether that constituted a "quid pro quo," even he did not dispute it.

👋🏼Hello, @GOP. Got your #QuidProQuo right here!

#Ukrainegate @SpeakerPelosi @RepAdamSchiff @tedlieu
After ~65 hours of testimony — along with public comments from Trump and his cronies — a “portrait is emerging of a #QuidProQuo that evolved over time, with Trump **progressively upping the ante when his demands were not met**.”

What a baby.🙄

1)
 U.S. President Donald Trump has fired John Bolton as his national security advisor.

My take:
Bolton's positions on various issues were in high contrast with others in the Trump admin, including the President.
2)
 #Iran apologists/lobbyists will be celebrating.
Yet I believe it will be short lived. Never forget that Trump is in charge & Trump is not Obama, no matter who his advisors are.
3)
 It is true that U.S. President Donald Trump may be thinking of November 2020 in this decision.
However, if he softens up on #Iran, he can easily be labelled as another Obama. Thus, whoever is appointed as the next White House NSA, Trump's #MaximumPressure policy will continue.

🚨‼️John Bolton fired as Trump's national security adviser – theguardian.com/us-news/live/2…
The Bad News: Trump fires John #Bolton as National Security Adviser (after Bolton resigned over Taliban fiasco).

The Worse News: #Putin is still Trump’s National Security Adviser.

The Worst News: #Trump is a national security threat and he’s still president.
Oh. Trump didn’t fire his National Security Adviser over the Taliban or ideological beliefs (DJT has none). It was his giant throbbing butthurt ego >> Trump thought #Bolton leaked the story about him wanting to nuke hurricanes. cbsn.ws/2lOqGbq

#BREAKING Trump’s lead lawyer is out. John Dowd Resigns in Special Counsel Probe. This comes days after Fox News conspiracy theorist Joe diGenova joined legal team. (Dershowitz would complete the TV team, no?) nyti.ms/2GebgG9 #Mueller #RussiaInvestigation #TrumpRussia
Seems clear where Trump's now headed. He hired diGenova to FoxNewsify his defense. It may work on those already awash in toxic Fox propaganda. But it won't work on Mueller. He'll have to be fired+/Trumpists will manufacture some crisis to end Russia probe. WHERE RU GOP CONGRESS??
UGH John Bolton was seen at the WH today. Is another Fox News blowhard propagandist about to get hired by Trump…to replace McMaster as National Security Adviser?? @ColinKahl is right. We're all gonna die.

What is GOP Congress waiting for? Are they complicit w/ Russia too??
