Impeachment proceedings play into President Trump’s hands. (Gary Varvel)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The mainstream media is focused on President Trump’s conversation with Ukraine’s president. The President requested that Ukraine investigate Joe Biden and his son. Prior to this, President Trump had ordered a freeze to military aid.<\/p>\n

The Democrats are arguing that this was done as leverage. President Trump argued that he did this on the account that the Europeans weren’t doing their share with aiding Ukraine.<\/p>\n

From the Associated Press:<\/span><\/p>\n

Trump has sought to implicate Biden and his son in the kind of corruption that has long plagued Ukraine. Hunter Biden served on the board of a Ukrainian gas company at the same time his father was leading the Obama administration’s diplomatic dealings with Kyiv. Though the timing raised concerns among anti-corruption advocates, there has been no evidence of wrongdoing by either the former vice president or his son.<\/p>\n

Biden said Congress must use its full constitutional authority to investigate Trump’s actions and if the president doesn’t cooperate he’ll leave lawmakers “with no choice but to initiate impeachment.” If that happens, Biden said, it will be a tragedy of Trump’s own making.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The media is in a feeding frenzy over this. However, they don’t seem to be as enthusiastic reporting on then Vice President Biden threatening Ukraine with the withholding of aid money if a prosecutor investigating his son wasn’t fired.<\/p>\n

Nancy Pelosi initially was opposed to this. However, growing support among the Democrats, and this new turn of events, made her more favorable to initiating impeachment proceedings.<\/p>\n
