Moreover, the House analysis of the information they do have raises key points we should all consider carefully:
That withholding aid to Ukraine while Ukraine is at war with Russia undermined the strategic position of our ally, and strengthened our adversary;
That even when many of Trump’s advisors raised their concerns about the damage to Ukrainian and U.S. security by withholding the aid, Trump refused to listen to them;
That Trump’s promotion of Putin’s propaganda that Ukraine interfered in the 2016 U.S. election delivered two victories to Russia —

2nd: Trump, wanting Ukraine to investigate Ukraine’s 2016 election involvement, held up Ukraine military aid when Ukraine was at war with… Russia. [6/6]
