    Agreed. Dems are abusing the whistleblower law and concealing their registered Democrat Deep State operatives.

    Yeah, dunno how they expect that to work. I get the strategy (they want to keep the whistleblower's reputation untarnished by whatever fake news fox makes up), but how long is that going to work for? Until the Senate hearing?

    Kennedy's message was simple. He proposed an unabashed quid pro quo. Kennedy would lend Andropov a hand in dealing with President Reagan. In return, the Soviet leader would lend the Democratic Party a hand in challenging Reagan in the 1984 presidential election. "The only real potential threats to Reagan are problems of war and peace and Soviet-American relations," the memorandum stated. "These issues, according to the senator, will without a doubt become the most important of the election campaign."

    Kennedy made Andropov a couple of specific offers.

    First he offered to visit Moscow. "The main purpose of the meeting, according to the senator, would be to arm Soviet officials with explanations regarding problems of nuclear disarmament so they may be better prepared and more convincing during appearances in the USA." Kennedy would help the Soviets deal with Reagan by telling them how to brush up their propaganda.



    Then he offered to make it possible for Andropov to sit down for a few interviews on American television. "A direct appeal ... to the American people will, without a doubt, attract a great deal of attention and interest in the country. ... If the proposal is recognized as worthy, then Kennedy and his friends will bring about suitable steps to have representatives of the largest television companies in the USA contact Y.V. Andropov for an invitation to Moscow for the interviews. ... The senator underlined the importance that this initiative should be seen as coming from the American side."

    The media/Dems ignored this at the time and have continued to ignore all the way through today

    The Senate is not constitutionally required to hold an impeachment trial. With the fact that the House is illegally pursuing this impeachment inquiry, then The Senate is the only check on the House's lawlessness. The Senate needs to change their rules and by simple majority just dismiss any charges that may be brought by The House.
