Perhaps you could tell us why the identity of the WB is now relevant.

Someone to scapegoat. That's all they have now. Attack the process. Attack the witnesses. Facts are against them so they do not matter.

Based on how this is playing out, Im highly suspicious that WB is Taylor...

which, if confirmed, would then reveal that he met, planned and co-ordinated this whole

scam with Schiff and his aides.

Just the little matter that the facts of his career don't tally with what is known about the whistleblower.

Why should he resign?  Because demanding election help from a foreign source is illegal.  Because blackmailing a foreign leader by holding up Congressionally approved aid is an abuse of power.  Because supporting a discredited conspiracy theory about the Democratic server being in Ukraine in order to clear Russia of crimes that all US intelligence agencies and investigations concluded Russia is guilty of is evidence that Trump is in Putin's pocket.

 

Are you factually impaired or just a troll?

None of this has yet to be shown to actually be true. The transcript he produced while not verbatim does not support your assertion either. Old news. Now we have this career diplomat throwing himself on his sword. The Ukraine states nothing of the sort occured.

 

Hunter Biden ....now there's a smoking gun.

of cource they don't have Trump on tape actually telling the ukrainians to dig up dirt on biden in exchange for foreign aid... it's just an accusation made by some staffer.. so the impeachment will go no where again..

By the ridiculous standard of evidence you set, almost no one would ever be convicted of a crime.

Adam Schiff agenda wide open. Already monumental blunders. This is the first issue of any substance to crop up in the witch hunt. Happy Halloween.

It is quite a lot of substance though. isn't it?

 

An impeachable offence on it's own, especially when it has been so vociferously denied?

If Zelensky who said he did not want to be a pawn in US internal politics has no tapes, he really is a comic

Another coddled State Department employee says something in secret, supposedly.  Another nothing burger.

 

The process is flawed and the "impeachment" won't withstand the test if it ever gets to the Senate.

you really expected the Ukrainians to say something to incriminate Donald ??? the same Ukrainian that was kissing Trump's ass when they last met at the G20, the same Ukrainian that stays at Trump hotels, the same Ukrainian that's a puppet of the same oligarch that was contacted by Giuliani whom happens to be a supporter of Trump.... sure they all will come out and tell the (their) truth..... get real man, stop the bs, a crook always a crook

Identify the parts you think have not been proven.  Is it the part about foreign election assistance is illegal? The fact that foreign aid was being held up until Zelensky publicly announced Ukraine was investigating the conspiracy theories? The fact that the conspiracy theories Trump wanted "investigated" were debunked? 

 

While you're at it, identify what laws Hunter Biden broke.

During Nixon Watergate it was discovered that the white house had a secret taping system that recorded every word in the white house.  It was there during LBJ & Kennedy..  Nixon thought it was privilidged and no court would dare ask for it, they did and the putsch to get him out of office was successful.. The taping system was then dismantled and in every successive impeachment attempt.. particularly Iran/Contra will fail because they would need that much evidence to impeach.  With clinton, they had enough to prove he lied about having sex, but lying about haveing sex is not most peoples definition of high crimes so that failed as well..  This case alot weaker than Iran Contra-that's for sure,

Trump abusing power in an attempt to discredit a political opponent is bad enough, but I find more disturbing was his attempt to promote a conspiracy theory that is complete nonsense:

 

"Setting aside the fact that there is no missing server, the conspiracy has roots in some fringe beliefs that Ukraine coordinated the DNC hack to frame the Russians. That conspiracy grew on internet sites like Reddit and 4chan, and has slowly trickled into the mainstream over the past few years. It’s been amplified by conservative and Russian media outlets, social media and even the criminal trial of Roger Stone, a former Trump adviser."

 

"The theory itself is bunk."  https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2019/sep/27/trump-mentioned-crowdstrike-conspiracy-during-his-/

 

Trump is determined to ignore the conclusion of his intelligence agencies, the Mueller Report, and both House and Senate investigations that Russia hacked the DNC server as part of its election interference.  His determination to obscure Russia's guilt in election interference is very suspicious.

Yea, it boggles the mind as to why Trump doesn’t believe the intelligence agencies— like Mueller, Comey, Brennan, Clapper, McCabe, Rosenstien.

 

I just can’t figure that out!  Just doesn’t make sense, there is no reason whatsoever Trump shouldn’t trust them.

Or those evil Republican Senators:

 

Senate report details foreign meddling in 2016 election, urges Trump to take preventative measures for 2020

 

The Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday issued a report urging President Trump to warn the public about efforts by foreign governments to interfere in U.S. elections and take steps to prevent hostile nations from using social media to meddle in the 2020 vote.

The recommendations were part of an 85-page report that outlined Russia's large-scale effort to interfere in the 2016 presidential election. The group of bipartisan senators described the social media activities of the Kremlin-backed Internet Research Agency (IRA) as part of a "broader, sophisticated, and ongoing information warfare campaign designed to sow discord in American politics and society."

You gotta love the way Fox News played the headline. No mention of Russia until the 3rd sentence. I think it's called burying the lede. Still, there it is.

Yea, they have zero evidence for a non existent crime. That doesn’t matter though, they know how easily the public can be manipulated. Zucker at CNN was recently caught on tape telling his staff to keep the impeachment story front and center. When you have the 4th branch of government working for the DNC you don’t need to follow the law, you just need to create the illusion of following the law.

The reasons President Zelenski denied feeling blackmailed has been explained to you more than once.  The fact that you don't believe it is your problem.

Yes indeed, this whole impeachment  inquiry hinges on what the Ukrainian president says, cause we all know he would not lie.

It's really unfair to do it behind closed closed doors, right? ????

 

"Independent counsel Ken Starr conducted his probe of President Clinton using a grand jury, which by law conducts all its business behind closed doors. In Watergate, special counsel Leon Jaworski also used a grand jury to collect evidence that he eventually transmitted to Congress during its impeachment inquiry. Much of the legal work analyzing the evidence collected by Mr. Jaworski’s prosecutors was done behind closed doors by congressional lawyers.......

Under GOP leadership, the Senate and House intelligence committees conducted separate reviews of Russian meddling in the 2016 election, largely interviewing witnesses behind closed doors.

The Republican-run House also conducted an inquiry into the 2012 terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya, largely behind closed doors."

Even if Graham said the process is illegal and unconstitutional (you did not provide a link to Graham's comments) it does not change what the constitution says about impeachment; what the House is doing is in accordance with the constitution. 

 

President Zelensky is under duress; what he said can not be taken at face value.  How many times must that be explained to you?  Do you deny it?

Charges against Biden will be impossible to prove. He sat on boards on companies, made a fortune from doing nothing save for peddling influence and access. In his interview he candidly admitted that he had no qualifications or experience of what the companies did. He stated if it were not for his name he'd not be on the boards. He's resigned. What concl6can we draw?

Give examples of the influence peddling and access you claim Hunter Biden did.  While you're at it, explain why we should care if a Ukrainian company hired an unqualified board member. 

 

It's not like somebody gave an unqualified in-law of the President of the United States a job as a top adviser and made him responsible for solving the opioid crisis, bringing peace to the middle east, fixing the VA, etc.  Now that would be blatantly criminal, wouldn't it?

Are you unaware that Ukraine is at war with Russia and dependent on the US for support?  Do you not consider that duress?

 

Or do you need a reminder of what a baby Trump becomes whenever he is criticized?

I won't argue facts and reality with you:  Your sources are youtube and something called theepochtimes.com.  I'll let that speak for itself.

It looks like the Trump administration's pressure campaign against Ukraine may have gone further than freezing military aid

• The United States' move to stop sending critical assistance to Ukraine appears to have extended further than just the suspension of a nearly $400 million military-aid package.
• The Washington Post reported on Thursday that the US in late August withdrew its recommendation to restore some of Ukraine's trade privileges.
• The report said that John Bolton, then President Donald Trump's national security adviser, informed Robert Lighthizer, the US trade representative, that Trump would most likely oppose any policy that benefited Ukraine's newly elected government.
