I'm sure your preferred news source suppressed the information but Biden was guilty. He withheld aid to Ukraine unless they fired the prosecutor who was investigating the business his son worked for and a real investigation should have started a long time ago. I don't blame Trump for pulling the same dirty tricks the Democrats have been pulling for years.
Hello alll,
Well, is'nt that special...BIden did withhold the aid, he did it with the sanction of congress, the sate dept. and many eu countries ok.
As to sholkin, he was not investigating burisma, the case was on hold. That was part of the reason why he was corrupt.

Hah! Yeah, surething!
Actually, it is the network behind The 'Trump Agenda' that impresses me the most. But, how can I not respect Trump? He is baddass and has made fools of all of my foes. I love that. I love knowing that all these Deep State neo-nazis are deeply considering suicide right now.
Thanks for the concern, but anti-Trumpism is more cultlike than anything I've witnessed in a long time.

Anti-Trumpism is just calling a spade a spade.
Just like how people who have been abused as children very often become child abusers themselves, people who feel like they have been conned and lied to all their lives run to a conman for warmth and comfort.
Hello all,
Fact check: Trump makes at least 20 false claims in Fox & Friends interview

Trump falsely says kids are 'almost immune' from Covid-19
Trump falsely says kids are 'almost immune' from Covid-19 01:22
Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump did another interview with the Fox News show "Fox & Friends" on Wednesday morning.
As usual, he treated viewers to a dizzying quantity of false claims.
His dishonesty was centered on his now-familiar array of recent favorite topics: the coronavirus pandemic, mail-in voting, protests, China, and former Vice President Joe Biden.
We're still going through the transcript, but Trump made at least 20 false claims -- most of which he has uttered before. Here is a preliminary list:
Content by CNN Underscored
Everything you need to make ice cream in a Mason jar
Did you know that with just two ingredients and a Mason jar, you can create your own ice cream?
The coronavirus pandemic
Children and Covid-19: Trump said of the coronavirus: "If you look at children, children are almost -- and I would almost say definitely -- but almost immune from this disease." He added, "They don't have a problem. They just don't have a problem."
Facts First: While children are, on the whole, less likely to get seriously ill or die from the coronavirus than adults are, they are certainly not "immune;" children get infected, transmit the virus, and do sometimes get seriously ill or die.
Here is a longer article on the subject.
CNN holds elected officials and candidates accountable by pointing out what's true and what's not.
Here's a look at our recent fact checks.
Testing and cases: Trump said, "By the way: when you do a lot of testing, you have more cases."
Facts First: Testing does not create coronavirus cases, just reveals their existence -- and, in fact, testing is a pandemic-fighting tool that is supposed to help reduce the number of actual cases.
The virus: Trump said schools should open despite the coronavirus pandemic because "this thing's going away. It will go away like things go away."
Facts First: There is no evidence the virus is "going away." The US had 57,540 confirmed new cases the day before Trump spoke, according to Johns Hopkins University data. And the virus may never disappear entirely; Dr. Anthony Fauci told Congress last week, "I do not believe it would disappear because it is such a highly transmissible virus."
The state of the pandemic: Trump said, "Much of the country's in really good shape." He then broadened the claim, saying, "The country's in very good shape."
Facts First: This is nonsense. The country remains in the grips of an uncontrolled pandemic. Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus task force coordinator, said on CNN on Sunday that "what we are seeing today is different from March and April. It is extraordinarily widespread. It's into the rural as equal urban areas."
Ventilators: Trump claimed that the US had "nothing" in terms of ventilators before the Trump administration hiked production this year, adding, "You go back four months, we didn't have any."
Facts First: As Trump's own health department has acknowledged to CNN, Trump inherited about 19,000 ventilators in the national stockpile, about 16,660 of them in working order. Last week, the White House itself tweeted a graphic that said there were 16,000 ventilators in the stockpile in January, seven months ago.
Testing in India: Trump claimed that India has conducted just 11 million coronavirus tests.
Facts First: India had conducted more than 20 million tests as of Sunday.
Mail-in voting
New York congressional primaries: Trump claimed that there has been voter fraud in New York congressional Democratic primaries in which the vote-counting was slow, saying, "They're fraudulent votes."
Facts First: There is no evidence of voter fraud in the New York races; the counting was plagued by administrative and technological problems, which have nothing to do with fraud.
Absentee voting vs. other mail voting: Trump again tried to create a distinction between absentee voting and other mail-in voting, saying "absentee is okay because you have to go through a process."
Facts First: There is no real difference; many states, like Florida, where Trump himself votes by mail, make no distinction at all between people who vote by mail while in the state or while out of the state. All mail ballots are subjected to a security process.
Nevada's plans for mail-in voting: Trump said that, under Nevada's plans for mail-in voting, "anybody that ever walked will get" a ballot.
Facts First: Nope. Nevada plans to send ballots to all active registered voters, who can only be adult citizens.
Nevada and ballot-counting: Trump said that, if Nevada goes ahead with its plans for mail-in voting, we might not know the election results not only for "months" but "actually, it could be for years."
Facts First: We can't definitively fact check the future, but "years" is obvious nonsense.
NATO
NATO and Germany: Trump said Germany is "totally delinquent" on military payments and owes money to "us" and "NATO."
Facts First: Germany does not owe money to the US or NATO over its military spending. While Germany does not meet NATO's target of each country spending 2% of gross domestic product on defense -- it was at an estimated 1.4% in 2019 -- that target is not about payments to NATO itself and does not create liabilities.
NATO and Obama: Trump said President Barack Obama, unlike him, did not even "talk about" the need for other NATO countries to increase their defense spending.
Facts First: Obama certainly used gentler public language than Trump has, but Obama did urge members to hike spending.
Protests and race
Monuments and penalties: Trump said he had signed a "bill" that "re-instituted" an old law that gives 10-year penalties to people who destroy monuments.
Facts First: Trump did not sign a bill and did not "re-institute" anything; he simply issued an executive order urging the government to prosecute people to the fullest possible extent under existing laws. Those laws include a maximum, not automatic, 10-year sentence for destroying federal property or certain monuments.
George Soros and protesters: Trump claimed "they say Soros and they say other people" fund Antifa, a loose collection of anti-fascist activists, citing protest signs that appear to be made "in a high-class printing shop."
Facts First: There is no evidence that liberal billionaire George Soros, a frequent subject of right-wing and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, is funding Antifa. The existence of nice signs does not mean protesters are illegitimate, and many protesters have carried hand-made signs.
The courthouse in Portland: Trump praised federal agents for protecting a Portland building around which protests in the city have centered. He said that this is a "$500 million" building.
Facts First: The courthouse was built for $129 million in the late 1990s, about $200 million in inflation-adjusted current dollars. Trump has previously called it a "billion-dollar building" and a "$600 million building."
Trump and Black Americans: Trump said he has done more for Black Americans than anybody else with the "one exception" of President Abraham Lincoln -- then, a bit later, suggested that Lincoln doesn't even deserve the exception.
Facts First: We give Trump wide latitude to express opinions, but this one is ridiculous. Lincoln, who emancipated the slaves and won the Civil War, is a certain exception; President Lyndon B. Johnson's monumental Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act clearly dwarfed the impact of any of Trump's policies. And we won't get into the contributions of other presidents or countless Black titans.
China
China and trade: Trump said no other president had taken in "10 cents" from China.
Facts First: Americans, not China, pay the cost of Trump's tariffs on imported Chinese products -- and the US has had tariffs on Chinese imports for more than two centuries; FactCheck.org has reported that US tariffs on China produced an average of $12.3 billion per year from 2007 to 2016, before Trump took office. You can read a longer CNN fact check here.
China's economic performance: Trump said that, before the pandemic, China had its worst economic year in "67 years."
Facts First: China's officially reported GDP growth rate in 2019, 6.1%, was the lowest in 29 years. Trump has habitually exaggerated how long it had been since China's growth was as slow as it was in 2019, steadily inflating the figure over time.
Joe Biden
Joe Biden and the presidential debates: Trump said of Biden and the presidential debates: "They're trying to get out, there's no question about that." Trump later conceded, however, that Biden himself "has not said that."
Facts First: Trump was more accurate here than usual, but there is no basis for the claim that Biden is trying to get out of the debates. Biden has repeatedly said he is excited to debate Trump, and Biden's campaign has formally committed to the three official debates to be held by the Commission on Presidential Debates.
The Biden-Sanders task force and immigration: Alleging that Biden has been captured by the far left, Trump said, "Look at the manifesto that he and Bernie agreed to. That's further left than Bernie ever was -- no borders."
Facts First: This is wrong. The policy task force appointed by Biden and former rival Sen. Bernie Sanders did not recommend "no borders," though it did call for a far less restrictive immigration policy than Trump's.
And this was just this morning.

Hello all,
Hey tRumphumpers, can you see it? Can you see the crack that is tRump that appears under your feet.
It is more difficult everyday to maintain the facade. The numerous flaws, the unbelievable moronic things he utters, the outright lies he inflicks upon his proselytized following.
Yeah, you can see it. I wonder, is it your ego that forestalls your rude awakening? Or just plain obstinate?
Oh well, guess I will huff another bag of thick clouds of a sweet cross of cookie glue grown loving in my back yard in the sweet climate of the triangle.

New impeachable Crime committed by Trump..
Trump tells ambassador to get there British open moved to his golf course. Ambassador does what Trump asks and is outed. He was warned to not do that as its unethical and illegal. The Ambassador did it anyway. The sate depart was notified and nothing was done. This is a crime to use the office of the President to make money.

I like Trump but I admit I Haven't listened to more then a combined 5 minutes of his speeches LOL.... He's a wild ride and has been the catalyst required to bring out the truth behind the media, till Trump came along I had no idea how tightly knit the news groups were to their selected party, to the point where these entities are nothing but party propaganda 24/7..
