1. Of all the scumbaggery of @LindseyGrahamSC @Potus, @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn et. al, has been their willingness to promote a corrupt Ukranian prosecutor - pushed out under financial pressure from the IMF, the EU and the USA - to advance their Biden conspiracy theories.....
@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn 2...it is hard for me to decide whether @LindseyGrahamSC @Potus @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn et. al. are stupid and unwilling to learn basic facts, or don't care about lying, or both. But, for those who actually want to live in reality, let's go back to 2015-2016 & tell the truth...
@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn 3...start with the basics. Even the slightest bit or research - including *Records of Congress* - shows that, just the timeline of their conspiracy theory is wrong. The prosecutor in question, Victor Shokin, was deemed as corrupt by not only Western govnts, but Ukraine itself....
@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn 4...let's take all of these events in reverse.
On February 16, 2016, corrupt Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin submitted his letter of resignation. This is GOP/Trump "hero."
On February 15: President Poroshenko asks for Shokin's resignation because he won't pursue corruption...

@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn 6...(continuing backwards)..

@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn 13...so, to sum up quickly, going the other way:
1. Shokin named Proseuctor General
2. Refuses to pursue corruption cases
3. Ukrain Parlament gathers signatures for his ouster because of his corruption...
4. Shokin arrests the head of Parliament effort. Signatures stop....

@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS @senatemajldr @JohnCornyn 17...because they find it politically beneficial, because they know Americans are largely ignorant of foreign affairs, and they can say literally anything
