New: the former Ukrainian prosecutor at the heart of the Trump whistleblower scandal tells @latimes
that he saw no evidence of criminality by Hunter Biden; told Giuliani
“I could not start an investigation just for the interests of an American official.”
Trump's "do me a favor" request would be problematic even if it had some sort of legal grounding. But unless something else emerges, he was really strong arming the Ukrainians to invent or manufacture a crime that doesn't exist. Which makes it even more improper. And then you throw in the whole matter of withholding appropriated funds and withholding a meeting or phone call from a country that is in a very vulnerable position and what we have here is a gross abuse of office.
