If only
@AVindman
had taken his concerns about the perfect phone call to a trusted journalist. Think of the book deal they could have gotten!

I think she's trolling Alex Burns a little bit about his book that's coming out in a couple weeks, "This Will Not Pass."
Right now Burns and his co-author Jonathan Martin are doing the pre-release promotional tour that everybody does.

I think he did. So much scrambled up, at this point.

Could the invasion of Ukraine have been avoided if the Congress had impeached and removed Trump for the “perfect phone call”?

I am so fucking sick and tired of these assholes making a buck off "evidence" they withheld until now. The time to release those tapes was during the second impeachment, when it might have done some good. If the second impeachment was successful, the orange shitstain could never hold elected office again, not even dogcatcher.

But they held onto them in order to make a buck? THESE PEOPLE are traitors to America. How much more damage has been done to this country during the last year? And they had the chance to stop it?

Could you imagine if they had released these tapes then? Before McCarthy got the chance to kiss the orange ass again? During the impeachment?

Utterly despicable.

And reporters Woodward and his coauthor withheld evidence too long for the sake of their own wallets.

If the reporters have the goods, get them out. Don’t save them for your book. This is nice information that was valuable months ago. I don’t understand why news organizations pay reporters a salary if they are going to keep the “ good stuff” for their books. Reporters aside, there is a hotter place in hell for people like Bolton and Barr. Fuck them, I would not use pages of their books to wipe my ass
