Thank you, Nancy Pelosi, for lifting the Democrats’ corruption rock!

Democrats think their latest attempted coup to remove a duly elected president via a baseless impeachment crusade will finally take down Trump. But all it’s doing is lifting a rock exposing their own corruption.

Take “Uncle Joe” Biden. Prior to impeachment, talk most voters didn’t know Obama’s former vice president strong-armed the former president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, threatening that if he didn’t fire the prosecutor who was investigating the natural gas company where his son Hunter Biden was on the board, Ukraine wouldn’t get $1 billion dollars in U.S. aid.

Congrats Nancy Pelosi — you’ve just slimed the front-runner of your own party, who’s now under a heavy cloud of corruption allegations, as evidence of a real quid pro quo has been revealed by Biden himself, on video, at a Council on Foreign Relations event.

And trust me, it’s not just Fox News viewers who are noticing.

Over at CNN, contributors like Ian Bremmer, a Time Magazine editor, are saying, “Biden does have a problem here. I have to say, $50,000 dollars a month for Hunter Biden, clearly to be selling influence, because otherwise no one would ever pay him that kind of money for a company that, frankly, was pretty corrupt.”

Yikes.

Voters have also learned that three Democrat U.S. senators, Bob Menendez, Patrick Leahy and Dick Durbin, wrote a letter to Ukraine’s prosecutor general, Yuriy Lutsenko in May 2018, demanding he investigate President Trump and funnel the results to special counsel Robert Mueller.

Seriously? The Left is trying to nullify the results of the 2016 presidential election based on their talking point that President Trump engaged in malfeasance during his July phone call with Ukraine’s president by asking Volodymyr Zelenskiy to investigate possible corruption involving the Bidens and foreign interference into the 2016 presidential election — something the Left ironically has been obsessed with for the past 3 years. But wait … Democrats did the same exact thing?

Talk about hypocrisy. Thank you, Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic party for pointing that out to millions of voters — especially in swing states, where liberal lawmakers who won in Trump-friendly congressional districts during the midterms, are now vulnerable to expulsion in 2020.

But that’s not all. Americans are also now learning that the Obama administration asked foreign governments — including Ukraine — for their help in getting dirt on Donald Trump and his 2016 campaign as part of the whole Russian collusion hoax.

And let’s not forget the infamous Russian-sourced “dossier” — concocted by foreign informants — that Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the DNC paid millions for, that was used by Obama’s FBI and Department of Justice to launch criminal investigations into the Trump camp.

So all that’s A-OK when the Left does it, but not when its a Republican administration trying to root out corruption and get more information on the origins of the phony Russian collusion investigation? You can’t be serious.

Bottom line: Anytime Democrats accuse the GOP of something, you can bet the ranch they’re doing the same exact thing. Thank you, Speaker Pelosi for pointing that out.
