The Hill, as despicable a publication as exists anywhere in the world.

But the leader of Ukraine said this is not so.

I say you didn’t rob me. You say didn’t rob me. Someone down the street says you did and the police belive him?

He thought? That’s enough?

These people are clamoring for a bloody Civil War.

The Hill is inconsistent at best. And as far as the excerpt goes, it seems only to be relaying info..

Check out the wiki link BF posted above. Sondland is a property guy. Ironic.

That’s not what he said

In fact he denied the conversation with Taylor ever took place. Moreover his texts say otherwise

You’ve got to watch this writer. She’s a slick bitch. Trump never mentioned the Bidens in his transcript of his talk with Zelensky.

The WSJ is now populated with Never Trump haters. Readers should let the paper know that this crap has got to stop.

And the other party to the call said it was not a quid pro quo. Since when does the alleged victim’s statement not matter? Oh I know. Since the MSM wants to ignore it.

Bastards.

Maybe, but then we wouldn’t have John Solomon, and he broke the entire Spygate story wide open beginning with the unmasking irregularities. So, every cloud has its silver lining.

Thankk God for the Hill hiring John Solomon.

I agree the tabloids suck, but shouldn’t the focus be on Sondland — the reported complainer?

So, they realized the dates the military aid was "on hold", didn't line up with the phone call, destrying the whole "whistle blower" scheme. So now they need another quid quo quo, so what can we say was being withheld? Hmm, I know! It was a MEETING! What a joke!

The State Department is a hotbed of Communist treachery, sedition and Derp Stateness. It should be cleaned out from top to bottom.

You can bet that is one reason John Solomon left it.

What did he say on cross exam?

Oh, I forgot - there was no cross exam - or discovery - or deposition.

An important fact is being deliberately concealed.

Foreign aid to several other countries was frozen at exactly the same time that aid to Ukraine was frozen.

So having 2nd hand assumptions now means evidence of guilt.

Okay.

That is not true. He did mention them. It was in a different context and later in the conversation. But their names are referenced.
