I’m surprised the GOP didn’t go after Vindman more on this, but in the end we get that Schiff and Vindman both saying they don’t who the guy is.

So, the GOP should have made that point clear.

I bet Schiff is grinning for ear to ear today. I am not watching and I pray Jordan, Nunes and others can nail this guy.

So far reading his opening statemnt appears to be covering his own butt, lets see how it goes under questioning......but thus far he’s not really favorable toward Trump.

THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE STIPULATION THAT ALL CORRUPTION BE INVESTIGATED.

It is no surprise that Giuliani would want that to be taken care of. So, what’s the BIG DEAL.

Agree. This is a cya specialist.

He’s using the few key points that turn into a long winded what did he say.

At least he’s talking about focusing on corruption. Schiff will go by that and focus on I wouldn’t have worked with Rudy.

Another bureaucracy driven self focused individual....

But he just discredited Vindman’s testimony as a lie about events.

“Perfectly acceptable in my opinion.”

Yes, but the optics are terrible, and that is what the rats are banking on. ALL politicians, no matter what party, are concerned about optics and how they affect themselves.

He just contradicted himself. Said didn't know why...to this day why the aid was withheld....Then said he learned that Zelensky had to make a public statement.

This is the guy who had the phone call in the Restaurant?? Who called the President in the morning.....and said the President was kinda grumpy...but it was morning and he's like that in the morning.

Sondland was at lunch....say 1:00 PM in Ukraine.....6 hour time difference...

As I go back and think about the call....I hear a braggard saying he can call the President anytime...

But none of them heard what Sondland said he heard. They heard his voice....but not the words...

Thanks for that video clip.

Glad to see Rep. Jordan got in several zingers there.

It would be a crime if it were NOT brought up! Aid is MONEY—Tax payer money!!!

Morning anchor lady on local news has been hyperventilating using the word “Bombshell” over a dozen time in the last 5 minutes.

I expected Soundland to lean as he is.....Shift certainly met with him beforehand, evidenced in Shiffs opening statement.

State Department employees are anti-MAGA, been that way since FDR, look at the Department’s history and mission (Which is not United States’ interest or it’s citizens AT ALL).

Correct. Going to McDonalds and buying a Big Mac is a quid pro quo. You give money, they give a burger.

Whether you think a Big Mac is a crime, that’s another topic...

Has Sondland told the kangaroo court what crime he personally saw the President commit?

Or is it still hearsay?

The Rats are banking on this John Dean moment to convince the Senate leadership (i.e., the GOP) that it needs to take a walk over to the White House to give Trump a “come-to-Jesus” meeting and get him to resign.

Trump ain't Nixon, he would laugh in their face, dare them to try to even try to remove them by saying he'll "take it to the people" if they try and then tell the Secret Service to kick them out of the Whitehouse.

AG William Barr publicly announced a CRIMINAL investigation into the origins of the Russia “collusion” delusion. Ukraine, along with other countries, were up to their eyeballs in 2016 election meddling.

Whatever this guy says is irrelevant.
