Full title: BREAKING: NSC Official Reportedly Testifies He Heard Nothing Illegal On Trump-Zelensky Call, Transcript Accurate
BREAKING: CBS News is reporting that Tim Morrison, the National Security Council's Senior Director for European Affairs, testified before Congress on Thursday that he heard nothing illegal on the phone call between President Donald J. Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Morrison also reportedly testified that the transcript released by the White House was accurate.

Morrison also testified that the memorandum of the call released by the White House is accurate to his recollection and he does not know the WB's identity. Story soon.
The Federalist is also reporting this according to transcripts obtained by the outlet.
“I want to be clear, I was not concerned that anything illegal was discussed,” former NSC Senior Director for European Affairs Tim Morrison testified today, according to Sean Davis.
"My recollection is that Ambassador Sondland’s proposal to [Ukrainian National Security Advisor Andriy] Yermak was that it could be sufficient if the new Ukrainian prosecutor general — not President Zelensky — would commit to pursue the Burisma investigation, Morrison testified according to the Federalist.
“I am pleased our process gave the president the confidence he needed to approve the release of the security sector assistance,” he added. “I am proud of what I have been able, in some small way, to help the Trump administration accomplish."
After a government whistleblower came forward, Congressional Democrats accused President Trump of offering an illegal quid pro quo, pressuring the Ukrainian government to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden in exchange for military aid. On Thursday, they voted to conduct an official impeachment inquiry into President Trump's actions.
This is a breaking news post and will be updated as needed.
Whatever. Impeachment will happen, and long with it, the doxxing and massive media pressure on several GOP Senators ahead of the trial in order to garner the 2/3rds vote needed for conviction. If you don’t think this can happen, guess again.
What is this with CBS? I’m seeing a complete 180 degree shift in their operations in the last 24 hours.
This guy probably resigned rather than feel the BLOW BACK from the deep state sounds to me like this Vendermin is a real POS!!!!
It also directs attention from the circular firing squad clown show that is the Dem President Debates w/ insane position on issues. Medicare For All will kill the economy and cost 2 million jobs I read.
Breaking: Trump presidential hostage crisis, day 1,014.
Schiff responded “No, no, no! I’m not going to allow that answer.”
IBTZ.
Well this is interesting breaking news from CBS..
.Catherine Herridge abruptly leaves Fox News, signs contract with CBS…
Is there a change in the wind..
Could be that SEE BS is worried what the hell their company would become under a LIZZY, or Bernie admin.!!!
I’ve no idea but it sure seems something is happening there.
Actually, there is an impeachable offense! Biden illegally used US taxpayer money to extort Ukraine to fire the prosecutor who was investigating his son. Who knows what else he has done. In any case, based on this action alone, Biden is unfit to hold any office.
Enough senior Democrat( and some Republican) leaders, high level government official and top tier members of the Democrat establishment are so badly comprised by their misconduct under Obama that they are terrified and desperate enough to try stupid games that are in turf process destroying the country by sabotaging the economy and inciting enough hate and division that we are at serious risk of civil strife
They are literally telegraphing to President Trump and the American people that they are willing and able to burn the country down before they give up power and are held accountable for what they have done
Really, everyone and their brother were supposedly listening in on this one particular call. I thought we had the NSA for this. Just ask the NSA to send out the full transcript.
This is crazy. The Democrats couldn’t delay this disclosure to news dump Friday, and now it’s the Sunday Talk Show circuit filet mignon.
It will be very difficult for Dims to argue this man’s opinion , of the very same facts, is less valid than their cherry-picked witness’ opinions.
Of course, NONE of their opinions are valid as they are not federal prosecutors with extensive training.
So where f*ck are ALL of the transcripts and whistle blowers when Obama was Resident? This sh*t is getting sooooo old.
CBS?
Wow! Go figure. I thought telling the truth was not allowed.
This information and the release of the whistle blower’s identity has made this an interesting day.
Great point!
How is this quid pro quo of Biden's any different than a "bribe", as in "...treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors"?
Yes it has and I imagine many Democrats are going to disappear and/or have no comment.
