Sadly most will only see the AP article, and youtube will put those videos down the memory-hole in no time.

Anything exculpatory for Trump will disappear down the rabbit hole.

Here's a tidbit to tuck into your tinfoil hat. Zelensky elected April 21 2019. Trump's first phone call April 21 2019.

Biden enters race April 25 2019.

I think of it as character building. If there is a time to make good use of 2A, this is preparation.

These “hearings” of the pandering Congressman Heck, the George Soros puppet Marie Yovanovitch, the petulant Pelosi and Chuck Schumer etc. all are an embarrassment and a danger to Americans for their painfully obvious attempt of getting rid of a President elected by the American people for no other reason than they want the White House for themselves. The State Department is full of the same....President Trump should have fired the lot of them...they are disloyal bureaucrats to any president of their dislike...Durham and Barr better step up their findings fast and stop this abhorrent unAmerican seditious behavior.

It wasn’t even hearsay as he testified that NOBODY ever told him that there was a QPQ. He testified that he presumed it. So he and the media are relying on his imagination. What a joke.

Hearsay: Janet has a black eye. Janet tells Sue that Jim punched her. Sue testifies against Jim.

Sondland scenario: Janet has a black eye. Janet tells nobody what happened. Sondland PRESUMES Jim must have hit her. Sondland testifies against Jim.

A lie by omission is still a lie.

Democrat media have gone full Goebbels.

Yes. And Zlochevsky is now missing. Not joking. He’s missing. Epstein only knows where he could be.

NBC is reporting that this is untrue.

Gee it’s fun to live in a country where you never know what to believe.

Naw....Sondland took it out. He couldn’t have it both ways. BUT....effectively, he lied to Congress and that’s a crime.
