    All of this is only happening because we took back the House in 2018, so no matter what happens between here and next election, VOTE!

    Congratulations Republicans, this is what you wanted! In fact, you wanted it so bad not a single Republican votes for it.

    This story is breaking, but here is an excerpt of some important points provided by a user named Slakmehl on Reddit.

    Feel justified in never reading the documents you requested?

    A claim based on nothing of course. All that you have left, so who can blame you?

    Umm. What exactly do you expect us to take away from that?

    Giuliani met with sime guys from Ukraine

    Trump wanted a new ambassador

    Trump talked to the Ukrainian president about what he thought might be criminal activity on the part of Biden..

    Nothing wrong, nothing illegal.

    Schiff has told reporters that two more transcripts will be released tommorrow.

    The transcripts include interviews with former special envoy for Ukraine Kurt Volker and US Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland.

    So you're advancing the theory that US government getting involved in Ukraine politics in 2019 is bad, but they were fine when the Obama administration did it.

    What's Obama up to nowadays? Campaigning for Trudeau and Macron?

    I recall you cheering Kerry traveling to Iran to meet the mullahs and circumvent US policy.

    I hope that you will read for yourself instead of thinking that a misleading summary will be useful.

    They're so cute when someone told them to think this is something.

    Irony.

    We did read it.

    This is typical US involvement in foreign affairs.

    Haven’t had a chance to check them just yet. Do they indicate that they are memorandums and are incomplete documentation of events?

    No one believes that you read ~20 hours of testimony. Pretty much everyone knows that you read 0 minutes of the testimony.

    His "transcripts" release to a CNN article if that tells you anything.

    It is very big of you to admit this is the result of power.

    So pointing out ellipses indicate missing information is inaccurate?

    What do you think it should tell me? You’re making a bunch of implications. Hardly a sound argument.

    Did you read your own sources, because that's all they say.

    Some Ukranians wanted political pull so are accused of campaign finance laws, and some leftist's in the State Department didn't like Trump's foreign policy.

    What else do you think you have here?
