House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) released a “fact sheet” Monday detailing President Donald Trump’s “shakedown” of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, as well as a “pressure campaign” to get Zelensky to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and a subsequent “cover up,” the Washington Post reports.

The document, titled “Truth Exposed,” includes text messages from Ambassadors Gordon Sondland, Kurt Volker, and Bill Taylor.

“Lying.” “Disgusting.” “Scum.” “Slime.” “Corrupt.” “Enemy of the people.” Donald Trump has always made clear what he thinks of journalists. And it’s plain now that his administration intends to do everything it can to stop journalists from reporting things they don’t like—which is most things that are true.

No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
