What did Burismitt know and when did he know it?
American Thinker: It wasn’t 2012 Presidential loser Mitt Romney’s faith that caused him to vote to impeach President Trump, whom he once begged to rescue him from political oblivion. While Romney, who undoubtedly entertained visions of succeeding a President Trump after his vote helped remove from office, says it was his faith that caused him to believe Trump really did abuse his power to pressure the Ukrainians to dig up dirt on the Bidens, more likely it was because that Romney wanted to put an end to an administration that might expose his link to the Bidens and Burisma,
Romney will go down in the history as the only senator to vote to impeach a member of his own party, but the question remains why he retained such animus against the man who forgave Romney his 2016 rant warning, as Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, and that seditious bunch later would, that Donald J. Trump was an unhinged danger. Trump supported Romney’s Utah Senate run. Et tu, Mitt?
Why, as CNN put it, has Mitt Romney “been a lone Republican voice expressing concern about President Donald Trump’s July phone call with Volodymyr Zelensky in which Trump asked Ukraine’s President to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his family”?
Little notice has been paid to the fact that Joseph Cofer Black, a former CIA operative, served as Romney’s special adviser in his 2012 campaign for President. As Breitbart News reported at the time:
In October 2011, Romney announced that Black, who had served in the CIA since 1974, had been selected as a special adviser.
“I am deeply honored to have the counsel of this extraordinary group of diplomats, experts, and statesmen,” Romney said at the time. “Their remarkable experience, wisdom, and depth of knowledge will be critical to ensuring that the 21st century is another American Century.”
Black trained for covert operations and eventually became the director of the National Counterterrorism Center from 1999 until 2002. After the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks perpetrated by al-Qaeda, Black was appointed ambassador at large and coordinator for counterterrorism in December 2002 by President George W. Bush.
John Brennan succeeded Black in his job as director of the National Counterterrorism Center.
If the full Barisma story is ever told, it will explain why the Democrats went hysterical and tried to remove Trump from office for suggesting the Ukraine start looking into it.
Joe Black. The son that Mittens wanted, but never fathered.
I’m thinking like a lot our foreign aid…..
We give Country A $1 billion…..Country A distributes 10% ($100 million) to the poiticans (or their foundations) that made it happen.
What else explains aid to China when they became the #2 economy of the world…?
It’s a real stretch to think that Romney didn’t somehow benefit from this is some way from this illicit relationship either from kick-backs or “donations” and it certainly explains why Romney would attempt to cast aspersions of impropriety about President Donald Trump’s July phone call! Foreign aid is one of the troughs the piggies feed from and it sure looks like Romney’s got a wet nose too!
Ed357- Yep. People have been talking about it for years. It only became obvious, blatant, when 0bama got elected. Because the people who gained from it didn’t have the sense to STFU about it.
Mitt is obviously a guy who carries burning grudges for a long time. Why he carries water for the same people who shredded him in 2012 is a mystery. Unless those same people bought him off—or blackmailed him—after the first debate.
So much for that squeaky clean, holier than thou Morman image he created in 2012.
