Really cool how you all jump at Vass here, but didn't see fit to enlighten Nea Byzantia about the additional sources provided just a few posts after the one he quoted or about the link in the Mother Jones article to a recording of the radio show in question.

Because they feel like their ideas and narratives are being threatened, so they need to dogpile on what they believe to be the easiest target in order to make themselves feel better.

It's a common tactic they've used before and will use again.

Officials close to Pence insist that he was unaware of Trump’s efforts to press Zelensky for damaging information about Biden and his son, who had served on the board of an obscure Ukrainian gas company, when his father was overseeing U.S. policy on Ukraine.

Doesn’t this contradict one of trumps earlier scattershot statements that Pence was cool with it?
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

"about Biden and his son, who had served on the board of an obscure Ukrainian gas company, when his father was overseeing U.S. policy on Ukraine."
Joe Biden joked and bragged on TV how he got the Ukrainian prosecutor fired threatening the aid money to Ukraine would not be given to the government of Ukraine unless they fired the prosecutor.
This should be investigated too, I think the Republicans in the Senate are preparing to investigate it. including investigating many Democrats.

Yes Vice President Biden talked about how he used aid money to get the corrupt prosecutor of Ukraine to be removed from office. A goal that the US, and a bunch of other nations, had been working on for some time. This isn't something you investigate, because it is part of normal international relations.

The part you do investigate is when the President of the United States asks the President of another nation to investigate a domestic political rival on bogus made up charges.
