The strongest case
Entrenched power in Washington, especially the DOJ, FBI, and intelligence agencies, operates with too little accountability, and dogged, document-driven investigative reporting is essential to expose government overreach and corruption regardless of which party it implicates.
And against
The Hill's months-long internal review of Solomon's 14 Ukraine columns appended editor's notes in February 2020, finding they omitted key context and failed to disclose that his sources included his own attorneys (Trump associates Toensing and diGenova); impeachment witnesses testified his work advanced an unverified narrative.

On the record
No criminal record or formal legal proceeding against Solomon personally was found. His role in the 2019 Ukraine impeachment matter was as a journalist whose work was scrutinized (The Hill's editorial review; impeachment testimony), not as a legal party. [source]
