Breaking: American Oversight gets documents show that links between Pompeo, Giuliani, Oval Off




BREAKING: State Department releases Ukraine documents to American Oversight

Documents show links between Pompeo, Giuliani, Oval Office





It's clear why Mike Pompeo has refused to release this information to Congress.

It reveals a clear paper trail from Rudy Giuliani to the Oval Office to Secretary Pompeo to facilitate Giuliani’s smear campaign against a U.S. ambassador.

I'd love to see those arrogant smirks, tonight.

What a relief! Surely, this will be very damaging to the whole clown show crew.

How many republicans were getting Russian money and were playing around with Ukrainian mobsters?

This is the largest crime operation in history.

Remember @ the 2016 RNC the Trump campaign rewrote the party platform to make it more
Putin/Ukrainian thug friendly and one person who was there or close by was Mitch McConnell
and @ that point he must have know that the fix was in.

Pence, Nunes, Sen. Johnson, Sen. Grassely, Pompeo, and Mulvaney are tied into this crap too.

Lock him up.

How this group was able to get these docs thru FOIA but congress couldn’t?

Among other things, it doesn't require any justification or showing of necessity. Once the process is exhausted and the government still refuses, a court will order the release.

will try to make it bad for the Democrats, but it won't work for them, they will be caught due to the facts. Lindsay Graham and the rest will go down.
