So it turns out there were attempts at colluding with a foreign power to rig the 2016 election after all. Only problem is, it’s the exact opposite of what was claimed over the last three year. Turns out the Democrat National Committee reached out directly to the Ukrainian Embassy for dirt on Donald Trump in 2016 on behalf of Hillary Clinton. Seems like the chickens are coming home to roost, right Steve Cohen? This is why there is an all out smear campaign against William Barr by the Democrats and media now. They are terrified what Barr has on the corrupt Democrats and their collusion, so they are lashing out. Better enjoy that KFC while you still can Steve Cohen.
Ukraine Embassy admits DNC reached out for dirt on Trump in 2016 |

The boomerang from the Democratic Party’s failed attempt to connect Donald Trump to Russia’s 2016 election meddling is picking up speed, and its flight path crosses right through Moscow’s pesky neighbor, Ukraine. That is where there is growing evidence a foreign power was asked, and in some cases tried, to help Hillary Clinton.
In its most detailed account yet, Ukraine’s embassy in Washington says a Democratic National Committee insider during the 2016 election solicited dirt on Donald Trump’s campaign chairman and even tried to enlist the country’s president to help.
In written answers to questions, Ambassador Valeriy Chaly’s office says DNC contractor Alexandra Chalupa sought information from the Ukrainian government on Paul Manafort’s dealings inside the country, in hopes of forcing the issue before Congress.
Chalupa later tried to arrange for Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to comment on Manafort’s Russian ties on a U.S. visit during the 2016 campaign, the ambassador said.
Chaly says that, at the time of the contacts in 2016, the embassy knew Chalupa primarily as a Ukrainian-American activist, and learned only later of her ties to the DNC. He says the embassy considered her requests an inappropriate solicitation of interference in the U.S. election.
