Key Diplomats Set To Testify On Ukraine As 2nd Whistleblower Emerges | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Trump will love that orange jump suit.
Actually federal is Blue. Per Paul Manafort’s outfit last time he was on TV.
@Mathieu Ebassua Guess they’ll have to take away Dotard’s bigly red tie…afraid the orange puke will pull a Jeffery Epstein with it.
What hair color and shape he will have?
@zevi kramer Bald, and grey.
I think Trump asked Ukraine to do something really bad, like he threatened to withhold $1 billion if they didn’t fire a prosecutor investigating his son, right ? Oh, wait a minute search that video, they caught him !!
Trump Prison 2020!! Come on America, we can really MAGA.
Dering the 2016 election turmp said i will build the wall wall going up fast i will lower taxes he lowered taxes i will rebuild military military powerfulest in world i will get AMERICA out of tpp we are out i will rebuild economy AMERICA is number one export of oil and gas i will get AMERICA jobs black unemployment lowest in history Mexican unemployment lowest in history then turmp said i will drain the swamp starting to get the hint you ignorant donkeys turmp 2020baby
No crime, NO impeachment happening… Dummy
@Darrin Myers too bad he doesn’t focus more on education. I knew you trump supporters are stupid like him. That’s why y’all love him. Y’all got something in common.
*By this time next year, there will be like 50 whistleblowers.*
@Above All, United ….. You are correct. The shortest time of the 2 confirmed prior full Impeachments and the other 2 Impeachments that came close to finishing, the shortest was 3 months and the longest was 10. Even if Trump gets by the end of the year which is possible, the longest would be 10 months from the official notices of the Impeachment enquiries. But we need to keep in mind, though it was not a official notice, Jerry Nadler did indicate months prior that Investigations were under way. But let’s say from the official start, the longest it should take would be sometime around June of 2020 which means Trump would not even be on the 2020 ballots.
*So wishful thinking Trump Supporters* . But I do hope these whistle blowers give America the best Christmas present they ever seen in their lifetime. I know it would be mine and I am not even a Democrat but a republican who is in favor of Mr. Weld that backs the Democrats Impeachment and Mr. Weld even wants Trump to be charged with Treason too. So to the Democrats, I am a brother from another mother sort of speak as if Mr. Weld supports you all as a republican presidenial canidate being that he is a former Veteran like myself and he is a former Governor of Massachusetts who taken both his oaths for our country seriously, then I am fully supporting the Democrats as well. I hope that Elizabeth Warren makes it for the Democrats and Bill Weld makes it for the republicans in the final debates. But I have no ill feelings towards Biden or Bearnie either.
Send your resume to Adam Schiff.com. !! He is hiring one whistleblower for each week in October !!
@Above All, United the presidency has already been destroyed !!
@Len Ovo …… Are you applying for work? Maybe as president soon? I heard America will be hiring. But you must be able to be a liar and ask International Countries for help all while chewing bubblegum at the same time.
Republicans don’t live up to the Founding Fathers’ expectations…defending the Constitutions.
They can not fight themselves out of soggy wet toilet paper wrapped around one time with a single layer let alone fight anything else for the nation. I would not expect them to defend the country as they can’t defend theirselves.
@Florida Crypto R You’re correct, they can’t defend themselves, nor can they defend their actions. (and their inaction in some cases as well)
@David Druckman ….spot on David, thank you. Without question you are correct and I hate to say it but I am republican myself who was raised since childhood in a republican home. When I mention comments like this, I am saying it towards the way the majority of the republicans in Congress and the Senate are supporting trump. The difference is Trump no longer has the public supporting base that he once had but he does in Congress and the Senate which is a total shame. Both Republican Presidenial canidates, Mr. Weld and Mr. Walsh are totally against Trump. I do not think honestly Mr. Walsh would be good for the Country however. His background in what he did in his career is indeed filled with very shady people.
Though he is in favor of Trump’s Impeachment, he gives no real reason other than trying to mimic Mr. Weld. Mr. Weld is a former Vet like I am and former Governor of Massachusetts meaning he had taken his two oaths very seriously for protection of America , respecting the Constitution with his life and not once violated his oath of office nor the national security who has violated every one of these things putting our country in harm’s way.
Bill Weld is currently leading all republicans in the republican chapter meetings many of us go to in person and I have the internal ballot and Internal polls numbers from the regional republican chapter meetings on me right now. Even Mr. Walsh is leading Trump in these but that’s not saying much. There is things discussed in these meetings that only bits and pieces are mentioned online but not in detail that are very disturbing such as two crimes brought up with strong evidence way before Trump was president that had to do with Epstien but it did not reflect with sexual relations but still highly disturbing 3 months ago. Hardly anything , but bits and pieces is online of it. He was not charged with these two crimes due to the time lapse expiring the statute of limitations to charge him. But these things are brought up in both the regional Democratic and regional republican chapter meetings every other month and all a person has to do is sign up and attend.
The same internal polls and internal ballots are unaltered and the other party can not have input. They are the most reliable sources of information out there for both parties. But anyways, Mr. Weld supports the Democrats Impeachment process and Mr. Weld is encouraging Congress charging Trump with Treason. With Mr. Weld wanting this, I firmly support the Democrats myself kinda as a brother from different mother. Trump was not here for the country at the time of the draft and putting our country in harm’s way today. The entire country should not be there for him during Impeachment and he should go down in his sinking ship with anyone that supports him. You can see where I am accused daily of being a leftist. I just want what is right for the country I sworn on that dotted line to protect, not for someones greed and not for someones Political interest ever.
@Florida Crypto R Wow, a republikkklan with integrity, you guys are as rare as hen’s teeth.
@enhaxed X …… More times than often I feel the same way you do when communication is online only. The last two Regional Republican Chapter meetings across the country happen every other month with internal polls, internal ballots and minutes of the board. There is actually more against Trump than for him. Over the last 2 bi monthly meetings, internal ballots and internal polls revealed 4% of all Republicans turned Democrat, 11% of all Republicans turned independent voters who will vote for either side but not for Trump, 51% are staying republican but for Mr. Weld and Mr. Walsh (Mr. Weld is leading by 7% over Walsh & 13% over Trump), and 35% are staying for Trump.
Doing the math, That is 65% against Trump and 35% are for Trump in total. These are similar to online polls. But when you add in the online polls ratios to the regional Republican Chapter Meeting bi monthly internal polls & internal bi monthly ballots, that drops Trump’s public support base to 32.5% to 33% average. Online polls are starting slowly to show this. So just because it’s rare to see online of someone in my position, the reason why is most that attend their regional republican or Democratic meetings go there for accuracy with facts and to avoid online drama. If anyone wants the same, simply attend your regional meetings and request from the board secretary the most recent results and minutes of the meetings. The same ballots and polls go nationwide for a overall result. Now with the Impeachment process taking place, these new internal polls and internal ballots should be very interesting at the next meeting in 3 weeks from now.
Let’s hope whistleblowers keep coming forward to call out this corrupt administration.
Watergate trump for jail
THE WHISTLE BLOWER’S SHOULD BE PROTECTED AT ALL COST !
THESE WHISTLE BLOWER’S WILL ULTIMATELY SAVE OUR COUNTRY BY THEIR PATRIOTISM HEROIC ACT !
Sam Lim I so agree. Look at the Russian whistleblower. Accidently fell from the fifth floor of Trumps Tower in Moscow. I trust none of them. Organized crime is in full tilt. Anything goes.
Glenys Thomson I agree with both of you. This is extremely serious.
Why is that…are ya’ll nervous for the three human beings who are going to MARS in 2025?🤨🤫
Yes, and they should CONTINUE to be paid handsomely by Adam Schiff !! If you hate Trump, send your hate resume to Schiff’s office. He is hiring new whistleblowers for each week of October !!
And now we have a 2nd whistleblower. LOL Guess who he is? Yes… it is the real source of the 1st Whistle Blower. This tactic of presenting a whistleblower and having a more credible one appear later is what the CIA calls a feedback loop. But the problem here is that we already have the transcript!! So there could be a 3rd, 4th, and 5th Whistleblower and we now know everything they know. So what??? Big deal!!! LOL
THIS LAWLESS FAKE PRESIDENT BECOMING SUBVERSIVELY DARING IN ASSAULTING AMERICA’S CONSTITUTION, DEMOCRACY, AND THE RULE OF LAW. ARREST THIS TRAITOR – DEAD OR ALIVE !
I think Trump asked Ukraine to do something really bad, like he threatened to withhold $1 billion if they didn’t fire a prosecutor investigating his son, right ? Oh, wait a minute search that video, they caught him !!
Kevin McCarthy is an ignorant republican, is there any other kind?
An accessory to Donnie Dotard’s crimes.
Kevin McCarthy was heard on tape saying trump was dirty. Waterboard that MF to get what he knows..
@Bobby Y What a fantastic idea…Donnie Dotard approves of waterboarding as I remember!
I think Trump asked Ukraine to do something really bad, like he threatened to withhold $1 billion if they didn’t fire a prosecutor investigating his son, right ? Oh, wait a minute search that video, they caught him !!
@Len Ovo Hey genius, Trump didn’t ask Ukraine to do something really bad. [HE] did something really bad, by asking Ukraine to investigate his political opponent. Learn the difference, and stop getting your all talking points from Fox News, it’s seriously damaging your IQ. Like Mark Twain said, “It’s easier to fool people, than to convince them that they have been fooled”.
Impeach then Imprison!!!
#Trump4PRISONdent2020
Start investigations into trump kids,all of them since they want to bring Bidens son down everything is fair game now
Kevin McCarthy is a weak, spineless bottom feeder no testicles corrupt infected infidels. Ms Lindsey Mae Graham What you do in the Dark is coming to the Light.
That was brilliant! Thanks for the chuckle! Lindsey Mae….funny!
The defenders of Traitor tRump need to be held accountable after these crimes have been prosecuted.
Fire the Liar in the Oval Office.
When trump is out we will celebrate like nobody’s business. Ticker tape parade for the whistleblowers!!!🇺🇸🎆🥳
Protect whistle blowers there heroes for not standing up to corruption.
I can’t believe Chuck Grassley is actually standing up for the right thing. Would have been nice if they would have extended that branch to Snowden.
*Lincoln isn’t rolling in his grave anymore he wakes up and shoots himself every day knowing how Corrupt his party has become, GOP has no Shame*
😱😱😅😅Laugh and cry (at heart ) at the same time but really love your joke.
I have a feeling that if enough whistle blowers come forward they can all relax because Trump is imploding before our eyes!
Kevin: the girls abused by Epstein never got a,chance.
JUST another pig man who saluvates,at the thought but acts all holy
The Pope needs to give these guts,a call.
why would the leader of the world’s oldest and largest pedophile cult care?
