Are there any professional mind readers out there? If so, your services are desperately needed. Every impeachment is different, but this one is the weirdest of all. The validity of the impeachment of President Trump, and whether or not the FBI’s FISA Warrant was legal, depends on what was on their minds at the time in question. What were they thinking?

Only a mind reader could tell us what Comey and Trump were thinking. — It would take a true mind reader to know what Trump and Comey were thinking,

When the FBI used Christopher Steele’s dossier as an excuse to spy on the Trump campaign, did James Comey know it was a made up report? Did he actually believe Carter Page was a Russian spy?. If he was truly convinced Page was a spy, then you can see he felt justified in spying on the Trump campaign headquarters.

By the same token, did Donald Trump really believe that the Bidens were involved in a huge corruption /scandal in the Ukraine? If that was his conviction, it would justify his demand for an investigation before we gave the Ukraine $500 million dollars of American taxpayer money. The fact that Joe Biden was a potential running mate would have seemed irrelevant. We just don’t know what was really on Trump’s mind, and neither does anyone else at this point.

So far, the FBI has gotten a free pass. James Comey has not been indicted for committing a crime. But Trump has been impeached by the Congress.

The similarities in the two circumstances are striking.

It’s kind of like someone who’s accused of involuntary manslaughter. You’re driving in the dark and you see what you think is a truck parked up ahead. Not realizing that it’s actually a school bus, you keep going, and kill three school children crossing the highway. This really happened in Indiana. Therefore, the driver of that car was convicted of murder and sentenced to 4 years in prison. The jury decided they knew what was on that woman’s mind. They convicted her because they believed she knew it was a school bus and didn’t care. Never mind that it was pitch black outside , she’d just crawled out of bed to take her nephew to a baby sitter, and might have been so sleep deprived that she honestly didn’t know she was bypassing a school bus.

What was really on James Comey’s mind when he used a fake report to get a FISA Warrant? What was President Trump thinking when he asked for the Ukraine/Biden investigation while 75 people listened in? And, incidentally, what was on Joe Biden’s mind when his son landed all those cushy jobs in the Ukraine and China?

All of us can guess, based on our political biases . But we’ll never really know what they were thinking.

One good thing has come out of the impeachment hearings. We’re now aware that our taxpayer dollars are being sent to support one of the most corrupt countries in the world. While the politicians fight it out in congress, we have to ask ourselves: Why do we send millions to Ukraine?

The cold war supposedly ended in 1991, when U.S. President George H.W. Bush announced, ” By the grace of God, America won the Cold War: ” After that, the average American stopped worrying about Russia . Since Sept. 11, we’ve been preoccupied with ISIS, the Taliban and terrorism. So, why are we so invested in Ukraine?

Why send millions of dollars to corrupt Ukraine

Wikipedia quotes Ernest and Young as saying Ukraine is one of the most corrupt countries in the world.

It started in 2014, when Russia seized Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula and continued to occupy it. Many foreign policy experts believe that Ukraine, caught in the middle between East and West., is the bulwark against Russian expansionism. And so, through NATO, we got sucked into sending aid to Ukraine.

In 2015 The Guardian called Ukraine “the most corrupt nation in Europe”. According to a poll conducted by Ernst & Young (accounting firm) in 2017, experts considered Ukraine to be the ninth-most corrupt nation in the world.”

Marie Yovanovitch grew up speaking Russian.

So now, we’re in an impeachment inquiry about withholding money from Ukraine. At least two of the star witnesses have family ties to either the Ukraine or Russia. Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman, Director of European Affairs for the National Security Council. was born in the Ukraine. Former Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch’ s parents fled Russia before she was born in Canada. She grew up speaking Russian.

So, what will happen if the president is impeached because he demanded an investigation into Ukraine corruption? Will we keep sending more and more aid, with no strings attached? ? Maybe we’re spreading ourselves a bit thin, fighting battles all over the world and giving away money without getting anything back in return.

Can the average American understand why we sent $400 million dollars in aid to the Ukraine? One of the most corrupt countries in the world? Honestly, I don’t think so.
