I'll say it because no one else will: the prospective Apr. 12 diGenova-Lutsenko contract; the prospective Apr. 15 diGenova-Shokin contract; the HPSCI call record; and Yovanovitch's testimony establish that Trump tried to buy Biden dirt off Poroshenko in exchange for endorsing him
2/ It'd take a 100-tweet thread to cover all the evidence, and I'm won't do that. But Trump's legal advisers—at a time they were in contact with the White House—were trying to buy Biden dirt from Poroshenko agents the *very week* Poroshenko desperately sought Trump's endorsement.
3/ What this should tell you—especially if you've read the diGenova contracts, the HPSCI call records, and Yovanovitch's testimony—is that the Democrats are impeaching Trump *only* based on the *very tip of the iceberg* of the bribery case involving Trump and corrupt Ukrainians.
4/ The one thing everyone knows: Trump never commits a crime once. He exhibits patterns of conduct. *Beginning in 2016* there's evidence of Trump soliciting bribes involving Ukraine. He did it again in 2017, 2018, and *many times* throughout all of 2019. The evidence confirms it.
5/ The fact that this impeachment is happening and "BLT Club" isn't a household phrase tells you how little America is being told about how bad this is; the Club was a group of Trump allies who began meeting to conspire to bribe the Ukrainian government *all the way back in 2018*
6/ As ever, I'm only taking information from major media: here the Wall Street Journal, the Daily Beast, even—of all places—the Washington Examiner. America does not realize how much of this story we're missing because of the rush to get everything done before 2020 voting starts.
7/ I think the Democrats have been told to only talk about what Trump did in the simplest possible terms because—I guess—they figure he's not going to be convicted anyway. Maybe—more intelligently—they know these harrowing details are going to keep dribbling out through November.
8/ Mark my words: based on the testimonial and documentary evidence, it's clear that Trump sought to solicit bribes from Poroshenko before he even knew that Zelensky would be president and he'd try to solicit bribes from *him* instead. It's all as disgusting as you could imagine.
