Pelosi on Trump/Ukraine Story: ‘I Think Russia Has a Hand in This’

‘The integrity of our elections is central to our democracy’

EXCERPT:

PELOSI: “But the cover-up of the cover-up, two wrongs do not make a right. And the President’s going to have to answer that. And they know how wrong it is. So it's wrong for a country, as we saw with Russia interference — by the way, I think Russia has a hand in this, by the way. But we saw what the Russian disruption of our election last time, their interference, 100% confidence of the intelligence community, high confidence in the intelligence community that the Russians disrupted our election,  that was wrong. The integrity of our elections is central to our democracy. So what the President did in inviting outside intervention into our election is — it goes beyond the pale. So that. And then to use what was in a bipartisan way passed by Congress, to have this assistance to go to — to Ukraine, is wrong. So actually we have a double whammy because he’s again violating the Constitution by overriding an act of Congress, which is the power of the purse of Congress."
