    1. Not even close to knowing the real dealings and whose money is involved, this isn’t even a tip of the iceberg!

    1. Caramel So right. I remember that time very well. Watergate is like boys stealing candy bars next to this. I also remember the fascist times. Feels too familiar.

    2. Bruce Smith Liar, but never mind .You buy Trumps lies and ignore when someone has been cleared. Brainless fascist, racist fool.

    1. Lol. She should be listened to and her testimony should be given the appropriate weight I deserves. I think derving of a peace prize might be hyperbole.

    2. Nothing stop you to dedicate a prize or event to honour her, name streets to her honour or make a national hero day in her name.
      🙂👍

  1. The irony, we help stop the corruption in the Ukraine by the Corruptor-in-Chief and his lawless band of thugs. How Trumpian.

    1. @kcaj mortsnnew Biden was delivering an international message that put his son in jeopardy, because the new prosecutor did investigate Biden’s boss, whereas the previous corrupt prosecutor was investigating no one. Trump has been corrupt since before his parents shipped him off to military school.

    2. @kcaj mortsnnew lol….you are0 dealing with people far superior on this site. How about you attempt to make a coherent statement and provide evidence to support your position.

  2. And we thought the bar couldn’t get any lower, that fat orange cow manages to lower it even further. Shameful!

    1. Well I agree, treating an Independent Nation which is fighting for Democracy just like a mere “Colony” to be squeezed to the last drop just blows my mind !

  3. My hope by the end of this, is that Americans will understand that the republican party is also complcit and as corrupt as drump. I truly fear for our country, but for the bravery of these career diplomats I have deep respect and admiration.

    1. @Nathalie Dufour that’s a wishful thinking. The majority of white American electorate is so dumb and racist that I know for a fact that they will vote Republikkklans even if they start the nuclear war

    2. Now you know what it’s feel like to see an other country destabilized yours for its own interests. America has done that in so many countries around the world that I can’t even count. The American electorate was drinking the Kool head about the supposed democraty their country was extending around the world but make no mistake, America has never been about democracy around the world. America is only about predatory behavior for other countries resources.
      Now you know what destabilization feel like. I hope you will all open your eyes and question what your country is doing in other countries and stop drinking the fake propaganda use to justify America bases around the world

    3. @Miche Yahla China does the same, and everyone says they’re the bad guy.
      The only difference I see is that China is upfront about it

  4. Jordan was complaining about being locked out of the hearings and his name is on both as being in attendance

    1. I saw him on TV during the storming of the “Bastille” (Security Room)!!   He was all in your face with the reporters  ..  why wasn’t he in the room if he was supposed to be there??  Rabble Rouser  ..  that’s why!!

    2. Jordan where ever he represent’s “THEN NEED TO GET HIM OUT.” How can you voter’s have him represent your Country..Instead of doing what you put him there for your Country..instead he’s Repsenting TRUMP. What’s all that about voter’s…Vote Blue

    1. @snowflake liberal If the kids believe that, they are asleep. Do you know the truth so you can tell it to your 18 year old? Those kids are in a coma!

    2. @snowflake liberal If your kids were “WOKE” as you said, they would know that voting is a farce. Both parties sleep in the same bed. Do you get it now?

    1. @Angel White To a person who has no money 5$ is like a 100$.
      To a person who makes minimum wage taking 50$ is like taking 500$ to a billionaire taking 3million is like taking a billion in his mind but for the poor man if he had that much he would say, so what! That makes me poor?

    2. @Melvin Cohen – Let’s simplify this a little:
      The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour.
      At this rate, a full-time worker makes $58 per day, $290 per week.
      Subtract 20% for taxes and they get to take home $46.40 per day, $232 per week.
      Therefore, $50 is more than a full day’s take-home pay for these people.
      Also, at that wage, one’s annual pre-tax wages are $15,080 ($12,064 take-home after taxes) meaning that one would need to work more that 66 years to earn a million dollars before taxes, and and almost 83 years to amass that much money in after-tax, take-home pay.
      Furthermore, if one were to (hypothetically, of course) work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365.25 days a year, ($174 per day = $1,218 per week, $63,553.50 per year) they would require almost 16 years before taxes, and almost 20 years after taxes to reach that pinnacle.
      To put this into perspective, billionaires routinely spend a week’s worth of minimum wages on a single bottle of wine or champagne at dinner.

    3. @Dave Lindstrom I know this, and no one can live on minimum wage without government assistance.
      The whole point of tax cuts to the top 10% does nothing for the economy.
      Consumer demand is the major thing that drives the economy. Even Ronald Reagan found that out and altered his approach . So the more money the lower wage gets to take home the more That’s spent in goods and services.

  5. Read the depositions they called her at 1 a.m. and tell her to get on the next plane! That would scare the daylights out of anyone!

    1. Knowing what happened to Jamal Ahmad Khashoggi and this administration had no problem with it, made no effort to condemn it, I would be scared, too, if I were her. Who knows what they would or would not do to protect her or allow something to happen to affect her negatively.

  6. With all this breaking news, all these people testimonies, all these scandals and corruption, and yet Trump is still in power , there is something drastically wrong here !

    1. @Angel White obsessed much with the Clintons? They’ve been in the public eye for over 30 years if they were dirty wouldnt you think they would be in jail by now. Wake the fk up and stop covering your eyes and ears trump and his cronies are lying to you every day.

    1. @cloud lee Yep,Crime is what made America great,and crime will make America great again…..lmmfao/smmfh

  7. Republicans are okay with complete corruption in the government as long as Republicans are the ones committing the crimes.

    1. @Joseph Hill Corrected:
      I hope so! losing the toxic malignancy would boost the economy significantly.

      Note: as reported by wall street reps.

    2. They only wanted it when it wasn’t there, trust me now they are going to complain that it’s all to public.

  8. Has everybody forgotten Trumps first perfect call, when he was begging Mexico’s president to lie and say Mexico would pay for the wall, so Trump wouldnot loose face

    1. Mexico and the world are paying for the wall who do you think is paying for all the refugees to stay in Mexico .stop making asumsions before you lose face …

  9. Who , who is in his right mind, putting political parties aside, is not concern about what trump and his appointees are doing to this country?

    1. That’s the most disgusting part of it all. Country should come before policy regardless. Just sad times in America.

  10. “ Well she’s going to go through some things “ is a vile thing for the president to say,
    unless your name is Corleone.

    1. When you have Giuliani and his minion parnasus working for you…parnasus like to put gun barrels in people’s mouths and threaten them if they go to the police. Trump had all his bases covered. Didnt help that Yvonovich is a a smart, capable, accomplished woman…..the bane of trump’s pathetic existence.

    2. Exactly. And now we are beginning to see what he meant. Opposition research: if she´s had as much as a parking ticket 30 years ago, if she had a drink with a married man or her cousin smoked dope in college it will be front page news. Not to mention physical harrassment and death threats by Trump cultists. “It can´t happen here” people used to think. Not any more.

    1. Emily  ..  If he won’t pay them off  ..  then he’ll find other ways  ..  of that we can be sure!!

    2. @Raoul Fleckman The thing he should go thru is the jailhouse door. But considering 50k a year of taxpayer dollars per prisoners maybe let him eat himself to death. Go thru the ER doors
