Just before midnight on Tuesday, OMB released 192 pages of Ukraine-related records to us, including emails that showed top aides were laying the groundwork to freeze military aid to Ukraine even before President Trump’s infamous July 25 phone call: americanoversight.org/omb-releases-u…
Less than a day later, the documents we had obtained from OMB were on display on the Senate floor. Rep. Jason Crow, one of the House’s impeachment managers, held up a copy of a heavily redacted email from the production. americanoversight.org/news-roundup-e…
Just in case you haven't noticed, the Trump administration's stonewalling efforts are failing. We've already obtained several hundred pages of documents that have shed new light on the timing and implementation of the scheme to withhold military aid from Ukraine.
And more documents are coming.

The Energy Department has agreed to release multiple categories of Ukraine-related records next week:

President Trump may have been nominally acquitted yesterday, but the public still needs the truth about the administration's Ukraine dealings. We're suing the State Dept. for records related to VP Mike Pence's involvement in the Ukraine pressure campaign: americanoversight.org/document/compl…
We're asking for records related to VP Pence's communications with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, records from his August/September 2019 trip to Europe, and communications between the Office of the Vice President and top State officials: americanoversight.org/document/compl…
The president is not above accountability. The paper trail is going to continue to come out. We have five more Ukraine-related document production deadlines scheduled in the next six weeks: americanoversight.org/investigation/…

NEW Ukraine Documents: Tonight, less than a day before the Senate impeachment vote, the Department of Energy released 41 more pages of Ukraine-related records to American Oversight in response to our FOIA lawsuit. We'll be posting updates here: americanoversight.org/energy-departm…
This production contains emails between senior aides to former Energy Secretary Rick Perry and Michael Bleyzer, a Ukrainian-American investor and longtime Perry supporter, who was pursuing energy projects in Ukraine at the time. americanoversight.org/energy-departm…
The emails show extensive contacts between Bleyzer and top DOE officials in early 2019 as Bleyzer and a business partner were in the process of attempting to win oil and gas exploration rights in Ukraine — which they ultimately secured in July.

Another Ukraine document deadline is tomorrow.

The Energy Department is expected to release more Ukraine-related documents in response to our FOIA lawsuit.

More Ukraine-related documents are coming this month and next too.

These are the next deadlines in our #FOIA lawsuits.

TOMORROW: Energy

🔅Ukraine Corruption🔅
Thread 6
(1 to 5 pinned on profile)

Fancy Bear, the Russian Military Hackers that #Crowdstrike said with 0 evidence, was actually living in #Ukraine and was later arrested by Russia for
Treason working with Ukraine, hacking Russia
threadreaderapp.com/thread/1211464…
🔸2
Thread 6 was long but very important to the conclusion.
▫Fancy Bear was born is Russia but left a decade earlier.
▫Fancy Bear was on the run from Russia for hacking Russia's Prime Minister and Putin.
▫Fancy Bear was later tricked into crossing into Russia then arrested
🔸3
So why would #Crowdstrike
want to falsely accuse Fancy Bear?
▫Fancy Bear being in jail on treason in Russia for hacking Russian top officials, makes a perfect scape goat.
▫It can solve a long list of Problems : Buckle !

NEW >> Trump ordered #Ukraine aid freeze *an hour* after the “perfect” call. Emails also show he was asking about the military aid a month before the July call with Zelensky that went on to trigger the #impeachment inquiry. (Pretty sure Trump talked with Putin in late June too🤔)
Heavily redacted emails show Trump’s direct involvement in ordering aid freeze to Ukraine. Michael Duffey, OMB official (and potential #impeachment trial witness) wrote to the Pentagon saying he was tasked to follow up, adding to keep it quiet. apple.news/Ao1b1gFxoSO2_k…
Reportly only 2 Trump-Putin calls around Ukraine call: 1) days after on July 31, ostensibly about Siberian wildfires; 2) a long “reset” Russia relations call in May, after Mueller report, where Trump bragged they talked of “the Russian hoax. Assume they talked about Ukraine aid.

#Ukraine USAID Audit

@POTUS has the authority to without any foreign aid if financial corruption is suspected.

To prove that financial corruption has been going on within Ukraine, all we need to do is look at the audited USAID financial records for 2016.

#ImpeachmentBackfire

USAID is responsible for managing US foreign aid to civilian groups and some gov programs.

When it comes to military aid one of the main contacts for the dept of defense in aligning and structuring programs is USAID.

2016 Audit for USAID, Ukraine was done by:

Assistant Inspector General for Audit

#Ukraine #Embassy re cieved an email
Sept 14/14 : regarding #Military Aid and sanctions the US imposed on Russia.

The Ukraine cable discusses the upcomiby then President of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, who will be addressing Congress on Sept.18/14.

Militar y aid was previously requested from #America to Ukraine in order to defend itself from #Russia
🔅3
Poroshenko to most likely request military aid again, even though at that time Obama refused.
Ukraine's defense is not an option despite the fact that in 1994, Ukraine voluntarily surrendered its entire nuclear arsenal.

@JoyAnnReid #Ukraine is a top military arms EXPORTING nation.
Hundreds of million$ in U.S. military aid helps Ukraine sell their weaponry to China!
#Trump continually gives military aid to Ukraine to buy U.S. weapons, including #Javelins not used in #Donbas conflict.
threadreaderapp.com/thread/1194488…
@JoyAnnReid Do you believe Ukraine is now fighting for its survival against an invasion of Russian soldiers with thousands of casualties?
It’s nothing like that.
#ObamaBiden denied all military aid to #Poroshenko fearing that lethal aid would provoke Moscow.
washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/… #JoeBiden
@JoyAnnReid Any time you hear the #BidenProtectionMedia wailing that #tRump denied (delayed) U.S. military aid to fight off Russia’s proxy mercenaries (not Russian soldiers) remember #Biden’s impotence when #Poroshenko begged for military aid.

Even though for 2 decades #Ukraine
Has become an epicenter for illegal weapons and nuclear capable missiles @realDonaldTrump
Was supposed to just hand over Military Aid on faith?

#Ukraine a heaven for illegal weapons and heavy artillery, but #ImpeachTrump for making sure the US military aid was not going straight to the black market
themoscowtimes.com/2019/09/17/bel…
@POTUS thank you for the work you are doing.
#Ukraine has a bad reputation for corruption.
In the past has US aid ever been audited? Where does the black market get all these weapons?
