The recent disclosures on President Donald Trump’s conversation with Ukraine and the role of William Barr are troubling. The inclusion of Rudy Giuliani in the conversation clearly indicates that Mr. Trump was acting as an individual and not in the interest of the country. If this behavior is unchecked, it will set a precedent from which our democracy will never recover. If Mr. Trump is permitted to use foreign assistance in his election campaign, then you also may be the victim of such intervention.

I urge Sen. Pat Toomey and our representatives to do their sworn duty to our country, their constituents and the Constitution. They need to support the investigation of Mr. Trump’s action, along with the role of William Barr. Mr. Barr should be required to recuse himself, at the very least, though his role may also point toward impeachment.

Our representatives are running out of time. Their duty to our country and their historical legacy is on the line.

Note from KBJ: President Trump is doing his job, Karen. Together with William Barr, he will get to the bottom of the attempted coup by Barack Obama and his henchmen. Are you afraid of what they may find?
