Even with the overwhelming evidence of the president’s Ukraine scheme that has already accumulated, numerous questions remain — particularly about the potential involvement of top administration officials. We’re still seeking answers. americanoversight.org/the-ukraine-in…
We know that VP Pence had two engagements with President Zelensky during and immediately following the withholding of Ukraine aid, and had been originally slated to attend Zelensky’s inauguration in May 2019. americanoversight.org/the-investigat…
Documents we obtained from the State Department show a clear line of communication between Pompeo and Rudy Giuliani in March 2019, as the smear campaign against Amb. Marie Yovanovitch was heating up. americanoversight.org/state-departme…
Secretary Pompeo has acknowledged that he listened in on the July 25 Trump-Zelensky call, and two of the “three amigos” (Volker and Sondland) tasked by Trump to execute Ukraine policy with Rudy Giuliani were Pompeo’s direct reports.
The third “amigo,” former Secretary Perry, attended Zelensky’s inauguration, and handed him a list of recommended advisers for the Ukraine energy company Naftogaz. Giuliani associates also pushed for Naftogaz reorganization.
This week, as Trump’s politicization of the DOJ reaches new depths, AG Barr confirmed the department had “established an intake process” for “information...about Ukraine.” We’re suing the DOJ for Ukraine-related records, and will be expanding our investigation.
We also want to know whether and to what extent members of Congress coordinated with Trump’s Ukraine efforts or obstruction of the impeachment inquiry.
The paper trail is getting longer: Just this week, @just_security reported on unredacted OMB emails revealing the extent to which the office misled Congress about withholding Ukraine aid. americanoversight.org/the-facts-are-…

More questions remain — and more answers are coming.

BREAKING: "Final decision rests with POTUS."

New Ukraine emails released to American Oversight tonight reveal that Pompeo, Esper, and Bolton agreed Ukraine security assistance should "continue as planned."
americanoversight.org/final-decision…
The August 26, 2019, email from a senior career Pentagon official states that there was “no interagency review process with respect to the [Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative]” — contradicting what OMB officials repeatedly told DOD about the aid freeze americanoversight.org/final-decision…
On July 25, 2019 — the day of President Trump's infamous call with President Zelensky — a top OMB official emailed DOD that the administration planned to "review assistance to Ukraine" and directed the Pentagon to withhold further funds "pending direction from that process."

As Trump moves to install loyalists and purge dissenters across the government, he's hired a college senior to help run the personnel office.

We obtained the resume of the new operations director of the influential Office of Presidential Personnel, James Bacon, when he previously worked for Sec. Ben Carson at the Department of Housing and Urban Development. documentcloud.org/documents/4608…
In case you're curious about his qualifications, we have his resume: documentcloud.org/documents/4608…

The administration’s efforts to hide the Ukraine pressure campaign from the public are well-known. We know of the secret backchannels, the shadow foreign policy, the obstruction of congressional investigations. There was also the misuse of FOIA redactions. americanoversight.org/when-the-gover…
Ukraine-related documents released to @publicintegrity in December contained heavy redactions — redactions later revealed to be discussions about the withholding of aid to Ukraine. publicintegrity.org/national-secur…
@publicintegrity The government says the obscured information is protected under the “presidential communications” and the “deliberative process” privileges. Here’s why many of those privilege claims are just plain wrong:

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 !

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

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.

Fiona Hill to target Republican argument Ukraine influenced 2016 election. "This is a fictional narrative perpetrated and propagated by Russian security services... I refuse to be part of an effort to legitimize an alternative narrative that the Ukrainian govt is a US adversary..
"President Putin and Russian security services operate like a Super PAC. They deploy millions of dollars to weaponize our own political opposition research, false narratives. When we're consumed by partisan rancor, we cannot combat these external forces as they seek to divide us"
.@DevinNunes criticizes Hill before her opening statement, noting 2018 Republican House Intel report that found "Russia conducted cyberattacks on US," "Russian-state actors and 3rd-party intermediaries were responsible for dissemination of docs, comms stolen from US pol orgs"

THREAD

Today, the Ohio Democratic Party released an updated timeline of @senrobportman 's intense involvement in the Ukraine crisis that is now the center of the impeachment inquiry.
@senrobportman 2/30

The bottom line is that as chair of the Ukraine Caucus, Portman didn’t only have a front row seat to the entire ordeal — it appears that he was directly engaged with all sides of what was a deeply problematic conversation as that conversation occurred.
@senrobportman 3/30

Portman owes Ohioans and all Americans a full and transparent account of what he knew, when he knew it and what steps he took once it became clear what Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani were up to.

New evidence suggests #Ukraine played a key role in creating Trump-#RussianCollusion narrative at the behest of @BarackObama officials
theepochtimes.com/joe-biden-obam…
As #Ukraine underwent dramatic changes in 2014, then-VP @JoeBiden played a critical role in the @BarackObama admin’s involvement in the revolution that ousted #Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych.

Following the revolution, Biden would use his influence to help force the…
… creation of the troubled National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU). Notably, during the 2016 elections information leaked from NABU on Trump’s campaign manager #PaulManafort that helped to create the false #RussianCollusion narrative.

Live: The trial in #Ukraine convicts in absentia #Yanukovych to 13 year sentence for treason and crime against peace. The court decision was expected since the judicial system in Ukraine is not independent but is under control of the Poroshenko government.
Court decision ignored #Maidan massacre even though it was mentioned in charges against him. Court refused to allow video testimonies by first president of #Ukraine about "Ceaușescu plan" to assassinate Yanukovych during Maidan & by ex-Right Sector sponsor about Maidan snipers.
I found out that large parts from unauthorized translation of my Snipers' Massacre on the Maidan in #Ukraine paper, which was presented at 2015 Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association, were read at the #Yanukovych trial (11:55-37:45).
