Because it has to be done.
In one interview, Portman lied and dodged his way through serious and legitimate questions by the @daytondailynews about the Ukraine scandal.
Following are all the lies and dodges he loosed in ONE interview.

Portman "says the impeachment fight is making it harder to work on bipartisan legislation — it’s 'taking a lot of the oxygen out of the room' on issues w bipartisan support, such as expanding...background checks or a...red flag law..."

@daytondailynews The truth: McConnell has stalled these reforms forever, including reforms already passed in the House, and Portman has not voted for ANY meaningful legislation on background checks or other serious reforms for his entire time as a Senator, despite tragedy after tragedy

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.

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.

House and @RepAdamSchiff may need to call @senrobportman as a witness.
His Senate floor speech reveals how in the thick of this he was.
Goes to Ukraine, meets w Zelensky, and later brags that he told him that “fighting corruption” was a condition of getting aid.

If Portman had any knowledge of what Trump and Giuliani were up to at the time (and Ukraine said some Senators were aware of it), then Portman has a huge problem to address.
This also might explain his truly bizarre behavior through all this.

Like Portman, Senator @ChrisMurphyCT traveled to Ukraine.
On Murphy’s trip, Zelensky was quite open about the situation and how confused he was. Would be odd if he hadn’t shared the same w Portman.

The Night Before Christmas, 2018
'Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the land
All Americans were stirring
Because of one man.
The stockings were hung
By the chimney with care,
And hopes that 401ks
Still would be there.
'Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the land
All Americans were stirring
Because of one man.
The stockings were hung
By the chimney with care,
And hopes that 401ks
Still would be there.
The children were nestled
All snug in their beds,
While parents stared at each other Consumed with dread.
And Mama in her ‘kerchief
And I in my cap,
Had just settled down
For a long winter’s nap.

When, on twitter
There arose such a clatter,
I jumped on line
To see what was the matter.
Off to @realDonaldTrump
I flew like a flash,
Tweets came so fast,
Requiring constant refresh.
