    Yes. The FBI can and has done foreign investigations especially since the US is a member of INTERPOL. The agency has agents stationed around the World and has been involved in overseas investigations regarding things like drug trafficking. Obviously Ukraine doesn't have to follow US warrants but that is where most likely they would be interested in keeping on the good side of the US. Rudy Giuliani though has no official standing as law enforcement and asking the President asking the leader of Ukraine to cooperate with his private lawyer in an investigation of a US citizen is shady at best.

    I’m afraid this will set a precedent of how future Presidents will be treated. The Dems have set us down the path of win at all costs ethics be damned.

    I hope it sets a precedent of how all future presidents will be treated. This should have happened a long time ago. It isn't win at all costs. It's following the law.

    so asking a foreign government to investigate your political rivals Right before an election is ok in your book? Why even have a constitution

    I agree. But the only republican I could get behind is not Pence. Not anyone complicit in this administration. Kasic is the only one remotely clean on the republican side.

    Letting Trump do whatever he likes is setting precedent.

    Trump allowed a two year audit of his family and everyone hes ever done business with over a false premise. was that what he wanted?

    Trump's political opponents call him all sorts of names nightly on national television. Is that what he wants?

    you people have no idea what a fascist authoritarian is.

    Yeah how dare the dems respect the law.

    How is Merick Garland doing on the Supreme Court?

    Right, until you hold your own party to a similar standard, piss off.

    His own ****ing Party authorized the investigation.

    It was a republican investigation.

    so that's a yes? you think Trump wanted the investigation? Also political parties don't 'authorize' SC investigations. I think you mean the Trump admin authorized it.

    you realize the Obama administration did exactly what you are describing? they even wiretapped their opponents on many occasions. Including journalists and foreign dignitaries.
