I think the net effect of this whole thing is that the world is getting an inside look into how US diplomacy works.

And that is not a good thing. A world of sausage lovers are getting an in-depth tour of a sausage making factory and how sausage is made.

They may never eat sausage again.

So much for bribery. Let’s be reminded all of this is transparently political and has nothing to do with justice.

There’s a reason Rudy has not been called to testify.


There is also a reason Bolton was not subpoenaed by the Democrats.

This is all choreographed theater. The impeachment cake has already been baked. The House will impeach POTUS and this circus will move to the Senate after the new year.

Sondland is another bureaucrat with a huge ego. He likes to inflate his importance. There was no quid pro quo as far as the Ukrainians were concerned. We have the transcript of the call. The Ukrainians didn’t investigate and they received the aid.

These people are all from the Swamp, but I don’t see this guy going over to the other side.

I’m kinda discouraged why these people, all of them, are not loyal to the president. I agree, it’s like the new boss coming in, and they don’t like it.

Sign on my boss’ desk, big that I saw on day one. I was 27 old. First real job in my life at Caterpillar.

WHAT’S IMPORTANT TO ME, IS WHAT’S IMPORTANT TO MY BOSS.

First impeachment in history in which no crime has been established.

I don’t care if they actually impeach and Trump isn’t afraid of them.

Schiff is getting pissed because he won’t say Biden’s and Burisma in the same breath.
He was really badgering or leading the witness on that point. How many times did he try to make him say Biden? And then insisting "do you have any reason to doubt so and so?" I really despise him.

So did the call take place at lunch or in the morning?
They were all having breakfast at the restaurant?

Jiotdan’s opening question to him should be “Mr Sundland for my questions can you try and be serious for five minutes and knockoff the smirking, grinning and laughing when being questioned about something this serious. It’s an inquiry not a comedy hour.”

Ah, but there's a very long history of that. We were warned...

I hope the republicans show Sondland’s Sept 9th tweet to Taylor where he says Trump has been very clear, NO quid pro quo.

You’re right. I think he’s basically a straight guy, and he’s not going to undermine the president....BUT

BUT damn!!! I would just wish, that these people would come across more loyal to the president.

Juan Williams and Neil Cavuto, and Chris Wallace are all going to love this guy.

Since it looks like the House will impeach this ham sandwich the strategy should be to go scorched earth in the Senate trial and flood the deep state with subpoenas to drag the trial out into the primary season and show how the democrats are railroading POTUS and keep the contenders off the campaign trial.

Which is EXACTLY what the Rats were playing for. As I’ve said several times already, the Rats see Sondland as their John Dean.
