On Thursday, October 10, a press marathon will be held in Kyiv with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, who will answer questions from journalists throughout the day.

"On Thursday, October 10, at 10:00 a press marathon will begin with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky ... Media representatives will ask the head of state questions in groups of 7-10 people. The groups will change every half hour. They will be formed according to the accreditation list," an announcement published by the presidential press service on Wednesday says.

Also, media representatives will be able to work in the press center organized in the territory of Kyiv Food Market, where the event will be broadcast live.

"Each media outlet will receive confirmation with the specified time for their meeting with the president," the President's Office explained.

In addition, the announcement says that the marathon will be broadcast online in social networks.

Blitz day I guess. Hours apart due geographical points, but interestingly the same day as the rally in Minnesota.

This man, a non-politician, is quite amazing and likeable.
If he is honest, he will be very successful. I wish him the best of luck. He will need it.

Big Media:

“So Volodymyr Zelensky, when did Donald Trump ask you for illegal information?”

“Since the Bidens were absolved (by us) of all blame, why do you insist on continuing to talk to the much-hated Donald Trump?”

“Do you hate Trump as much as we do?”

“Boxers or briefs?”

I have one question I wish would be answered.

Before Trump released the transcript of the so-called “whistleblower” call with Zelensky, did he get Zelensky’s permission to release it to the media?

My reason for asking is that it was a great surprise for Trump to release the transcript of a top-security phone call with another head of state. The Democrats probably believed he wouldn’t do that.

If I were a foreign head of state, how likely am I to be candid with the POTUS in the future if I know my words could be released to the media? If I’m Putin or Xi or Netanyahu or Macron or Merkel, how willing am I to take his phone calls?

That’s my only misgiving about all of this. If Zelensky consented beforehand, I have no problem. If the release wasn’t cleared with Zelensky, I’d be worried about the ramifications with other world leaders.

I’m pretty sure I heard Trump say that he had Zelensky’s permission to release the transcript.

Yes. President Trump said this himself.

How is Zelensky aligned with the Atlantic Council? The Council seems to an important DS asset.

FWIW:

https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1181638315767930885.html

August 12th’ish - the whistleblower contacts Adam Schiff’s office.

August 24-31st - Adam Schiff’s staffer Thomas Eager travelled to Ukraine funded by the Atlantic Council

The Atlantic Council is in a partnership with Burisma the company that employed Hunter Biden. /1
It is also funded by a George Soros foundation.

One of the senior fellows of the Council is CrowdStrike founder Dmitri Alperovitch.

On August 28th Adam Schiff tweeted the basic allegations of the whistleblower complaint.

Bill Taylor is in Ukraine. /2
On September 9th Bill Taylor texts Sondland dithering about an implied “quid pro quo”

I have questions. I have said since the texts came out that Taylor’s text sounded like a bad attempt at entrapment.

If it caught Sondland off guard, it was likely with good reason. /3
At that point only Schiff, his staff & the whistleblower knew what the complaint was.

I want to know if Taylor had any contact with Eager while he was in Ukraine.

If it looks like a set up & smells like a set up.....

How many “coincidences” are you willing to write off? /4
Here is the detail. The foundations of all this increasingly seem to be #MadeofSchiff

And it is also clear why they do not want the GOP to be able to subpoena or question. /end
