Opening Statement–House Intelligence Committee Hearing
众议院情报委员会听证会开幕词
"Thank you gentlemen.I want to congratulate the Democrats on the roll out of their latest operation warfare against the President and their extraordinary ability to once again enlist the mainstream media in their campaign.
""谢谢，先生们。我要祝贺民主党人最近对总统展开的军事行动，以及他们再次争取主流媒体参与竞选的非凡能力。
This operation began with media reports from the prime instigators of the Russia collusion hoax,that a whistle blower's claiming President Trump made a nefarious promise to a foreign leader–the released transcript of that call has already debunked that central assertion.But that didn't matter–the Democrats simply moved the goal post,and began claiming that there doesn't need to be a quid pro quo for this conversation to serve as the basis for impeaching the president.
这次行动始于媒体报道，报道称一名揭发者声称特朗普总统对一名外国领导人做出了邪恶的承诺——该通话的文字记录已经揭穿了这一核心说法。但这并不重要——民主党人只是把目标位置移动了一下，并开始声称没有必要用这次谈话作为弹劾总统的交换条件。
Speaker Pelosi went further when asked earlier if she would put brakes on impeachment if the transcript turned out to be benign.She responded,quote,"so there you go…if the whistle blower operation doesn't work out,the Democrats and the media…we have candidates",quote,"we have many candidates for impeachable offences"–that was her quote.So there you go,if the whistle blower operation doesn't work out,the democrats and their media assets can always drum up something else.
当早些时候被问及如果文字记录证明是良性的，她是否会停止弹劾时，佩洛西走得更远。她回答说，"所以你去...如果举报行动不成功，民主党和媒体...我们有候选人"，引用她的话，"我们有很多可以被弹劾的候选人"——这是她的引用。所以就这样，如果揭发者的行动不成功，民主党人和他们的媒体资产总是可以鼓动一些其他的东西。
And what other information has come to light since the original false report of a promise being made,we've learned the following:
自从最初虚假的承诺被揭露以来，我们还发现了其他什么信息，我们学到了以下几点:
•The complaint relied on hearsay evidence provided by the whistle blower.
•控诉依据的是举报人提供的传闻证据。
•The Inspector General did not know the contents of the phone call at issue.
监察主任不知道有争议的电话内容。
•The Inspector General found the whistle blower displayed arguable political bias against Trump.
•监察长发现，告密者对特朗普表现出了有争议的政治偏见。
•The Department of Justice investigated the complaint and determined no action was warranted.
*司法部对投诉进行了调查，确定没有必要采取任何行动。
•The Ukrainian President denies being pressured by President Trump.
•乌克兰总统否认受到特朗普总统的压力。
So,once again,this supposed scandal ends up being nothing like what we were told;and once again,the Democrats,their media mouthpieces,and a cabal of leakers,are ginning up a fake story with no regard to the monumental damage they're causing to our public institutions and to trust in government–and without acknowledging all false stories they propagated in the past–including countless allegations that Trump campaign colluded with Russia to hack the 2016 election.We're supposed to forget about all those stories,but believe this one.
所以，再一次，这个所谓的丑闻最终与我们听到的完全不同;再一次，民主党人，他们的媒体喉舌，以及一群泄密者，正在编造一个虚假的故事，丝毫不顾他们对我们的公共机构造成的巨大损害，也不相信政府——也不承认他们过去宣传的所有虚假故事——包括特朗普竞选团队与俄罗斯勾结破坏2016年大选的无数指控。我们应该忘记所有这些故事，但相信这一个。
In short,what we have with this story line is another Steele dossier.I'll note here,that in the Democrats mania to overturn the 2016 elections,everything they touch gets hopelessly politicized.With the Russia hoax,it was our intelligence agencies which were turned into a political weapon to attack the president,and now today,the whistle blower process is the casualty.
简而言之，我们有这个故事线是另一个斯蒂尔档案。在这里，我要指出，在民主党推翻2016年大选的狂热中，他们所触及的一切都无可救药地政治化了。有了俄罗斯的骗局，我们的情报机构就变成了攻击总统的政治武器，而今天，揭发内幕的过程就成了牺牲品。
Until about a week ago,the need to protect that process was a primary bipartisan concern of this committee,but if the Democrats were really concerned with defending that process,they would have pursued this matter with a quiet,sober inquiry as we do for all whistle blowers.But that would have been useless for them.They don't want answers,they want a public spectacle,and so we've been treated to an unending parade of press releases,press conferences,and fake news stories.
直到大约一个星期前，保护这个过程的需要是这个委员会两党共同关心的主要问题，但是如果民主党真的关心捍卫这个过程，他们会像我们对所有揭发者一样，用一个安静、冷静的调查来处理这个问题。但这对他们来说毫无用处。他们不想要答案，他们想要一个公开的奇观，所以我们已经看到了无休止的新闻发布会，新闻发布会，和假新闻故事。
This hearing itself is another example.Whistle blower inquiry should not be held in public at all as our Senate counterparts,both Democrats and Republicans obviously understand,their hearing with Mr.McGuire is behind closed doors.But again,that only makes sense when your goal is to get information,not to create a media frenzy.
这次听证会本身就是另一个例子。揭发者的调查根本不应该公开进行，因为我们的参议院同行，无论是民主党人还是共和党人都明白，他们与麦圭尔先生的听证会是闭门进行的。但是，只有当你的目标是获取信息，而不是制造媒体的狂热时，这才有意义。
The current hysteria has something else in common with the Russia hoax.Back then,they accused the Trump campaign of colluding with the Russians,when the Democrats themselves,were colluding with the Russians,and preparing the Steele dossier.
当前的歇斯底里与俄罗斯的骗局还有一些共同之处。当时，他们指责特朗普竞选团队与俄罗斯勾结，而民主党本身正在与俄罗斯勾结，并准备斯蒂尔档案。
Today,they accused the president of pressuring Ukrainians to take actions that would help himself or hurt his political opponents,and yet there are numerous examples of Democrats doing the exact same thing.
今天，他们指责总统向乌克兰人施压，要求他们采取行动帮助自己或伤害自己的政治对手，然而，有很多民主党人也在做同样的事情。
Joe Biden bragged that he extorted the Ukrainians into firing a prosecutor who happened to be investigating Biden's own son.Three Democratic senators wrote a letter pressuring the Ukrainian general prosecutor to re-open the investigation into former Trump campaign officials.Another Democratic senator went to Ukraine and pressured the Ukrainian president not to investigate corruption allegations on involving Joe Biden's son.
乔•拜登(Joe Biden)吹嘘说，他曾勒索乌克兰人解雇一名正在调查拜登亲生儿子的检察官。三名民主党参议员写了一封信，向乌克兰总检察长施压，要求重启对前特朗普竞选团队官员的调查。另一位民主党参议员前往乌克兰，向乌克兰总统施压，要求他不要调查涉及拜登儿子的腐败指控。
According to Ukrainian officials,the Democratic National Committee contractor,Alexandra Chalupa,tried to get Ukrainian officials to provide dirt on Trump associates and tried to get the former Ukrainian President to comment publicly on alleged ties to Russia.Ukrainian official Serhiy Leshenko,was a source for Nelly Orr,wife of Department of Justice official,Bruce Orr,as she worked on the Trump anti-operation conducted by Fusion GPS and funded by the Democrats.And of course,Democrats on this very committee,negotiated with people who they thought were Ukrainians,in order to obtain nude pictures of Trump.
据乌克兰官员称，民主党全国委员会承包商亚历山德拉·查鲁帕(Alexandra Chalupa)试图让乌克兰官员提供特朗普助手的丑闻，并试图让这位前乌克兰总统公开评论所谓的与俄罗斯的关系。乌克兰官员谢尔盖·莱申科(Serhiy Leshenko)是司法部官员布鲁斯·奥尔(Bruce Orr)的妻子内莉·奥尔(Nelly Orr)的消息来源之一。奥尔参与了 Fusion GPS 开展的、由民主党资助的反特朗普行动。当然，这个委员会中的民主党人，为了得到特朗普的裸照，与他们认为是乌克兰人的人进行了谈判。
People can reasonably ask why the Democrats are so determined impeach this president when in just a year,they'll have a chance.In fact,one Democratic congressman-one of the first to call for Trump's impeachment–gave us the answer when he said,quote,"I'm concerned that if we don't impeach the president,he will get re-elected."
人们可以合理地问，为什么民主党人如此坚决地弹劾这位总统，而在仅仅一年之内，他们就会有机会。事实上，一位民主党国会议员——他是最早呼吁弹劾特朗普的人之一——给了我们答案，他说，"我担心，如果我们不弹劾总统，他会连任。"
Winning elections is hard and when you compete,you have no guarantee you'll win,but the American people do have a say in this,and they made their voices heard in the last presidential election.This latest gambit by the Democrats to overturn the people's mandate is unhinged and dangerous.They should end the entire dishonest protest spectacle and get back to work to solving problems–which is what every member of this committee was sent here to do.
赢得选举很难，当你竞争的时候，你不能保证你会赢，但是美国人民在这个问题上有发言权，他们在上次总统选举中发出了自己的声音。民主党推翻人民选举的最新策略是错乱和危险的。他们应该结束这场不诚实的抗议表演，回去解决问题——这正是这个委员会的每一位成员被派到这里的目的。
Judging by today's charade,the chances of that happening anytime soon,are zero to none."
从今天的游戏来看，这种情况在短期内发生的可能性为零甚至零。"
"I yield back."
"我投降了。"
