Former CIA Director Leon Panetta - Sondland's Testimony ‘Clear Definition of Bribery'

[Breitbart] On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s "Right Now," former Obama administration Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said U.S. ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland’s testimony offered "the clear definition of bribery."

CNN correspondent Manu Raju read excerpts from Sondland’s congressional testimony in which he said a meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was conditioned on an investigation into the company that Hunter Biden served on the board, Burisma Holdings.

Panetta said, "I think it’s important to keep focusing on the basics. And the basic charge here is that the president of the United States was asking a foreign leader and a foreign government to open up an investigation on a political opponent and on a political conspiracy and in exchange for that would provide not only a meeting at the White House but also military aid. That is the clear definition of bribery. And it’s a clear definition of what constitutes a violation of the president’s oath. So this is just additional evidence that when you look at the testimony, when you look at the facts here, it basically supports a charge against the president that he was deliberately misusing his office of the presidency."

"The basics"... as Brennan, Soetoro, and Clinton have instructed you to do. Ok, I believe it is coming into focus just now.

#2 Transactional foreign policy is not bribery. You do not become immune to laws by running for office.

By Panetta's own standards, Obama violated the law and his oath of office by using foreign intelligence services to.investigate Trump.

#5 The Grand Redirect.

What Panetta alleges is precisely what Biden did.

What Russiagate falsely alleged is precisely what Clinton did with Chalupa and the Ukrainians, and with Steele, GPS, Page/Strzok/McCabe, Halper, Mifsud, Downer and the Russians.

God what shitty people these are.

The only q here is, Will enough swing voters see through this obvious shell game?
