Subpoena or just a letter? Until they have a vote in the house, they can only send letters not subpoena’s from what I read.

“Sondland was told by the State Dept not to appear. His attorney said that he has to comply because he is a current State Dept employee.”

Correct. And it was the right decision.

Trump should just say that there is no legal process in place to compel this, so he is not going to allow participating in Schifty Schiff’s side show.

I BET SCHIFF HELPED WRITE THE MEMO.

July 25 call happens
July 26 ‘whistle-blower’ hears about it 2nd hand
-—something happens here-—
Aug 15 ‘whistle-blower’ form changed to allow 2nd hand info

THIS WAS A COORDINATED AND PLANNED EVENT
HOW MUCH DID SCHITT PARTICIPATE

Count down to Schiff running to a camera to cry obstruction. ///////// Yep. He pivoted to obstruction like 2 minutes into the hearing with the DNI. All beltway theater. Graham could torpedo this gaslighiting himself with a public hearing or two but he doesn’t seem interested.

"Nancy’s phony impeachment show is stalled at the starting gate. Trump is telling her to pound sand."

Nice analysis. Short and sweet.

Sondland is the guy who defended Trump in those text messages. He said that President Trump had made it clear there was no Quid Pro Quo.

Trump should start pounding on his podium demanding his day in court. Enough of this death of a thousand cuts kangaroo court. “Impeach me so I can call witnesses (the whole coup crew) or STFU.” The American people would overwhelmingly support the president’s right to face his accusers and to cross examine them. Call their bluff Mr. President.

Trump never claimed Executive Privilege a single time in the two years of the Mueller attempted coup. Because President Trump knew that the had not done a single thing wrong, he must have thought that the truth would eventually come out. It did but has not stopped Dems from lying about it.

Almost three years since the 2016 election, PDJT is much more aware of the complete dishonesty of the Dems and their media partners. I hope he invokes executive privilege every chance he can.

Tit for perceived tat is a losing proposition.

There is no need for Republicans to enter a fray the Democrats are already losing. Of course, perpetual Republican bashers have problems understanding that reality

>>Why do we have an EU ambassador anyway? Each EU nation already has an ambassador.

Perhaps the question should be “Why does each EU nation have an ambassador?”. They are not fully sovereign states, they have no control over their foreign policy, so why should they have separate embassies?

I suppose because the EU is kind of a separate entity from each of the European countries themselves. Kind of like their own little 28 country UN. Each country has its own parliament & head of gov’t & head of state but there is also a separate EU Commission & EU Parliament that makes the laws & budget & regulations governing the collective countries. Since it’s kind of a separate entity, a separate ambassador makes sense.
