"Gordon Sondland Accuses the President of Bribery," the latest from Benjamin Wittes: https://t.co/CDAiLlCtPm

.@RepMikeTurner: "Is it correct no one on this planet told you that @realdonaldtrump was tying this aid to the investigation? If your answer is yes, then the Chairman is wrong and the headline on @CNN is wrong." Ambassador Sondland: "Yes." https://t.co/YBjLKln6US

BREAKING: Senior NSC official Tim Morrison testified yesterday that the tank-busting Javelin missiles were not part of the military aid package to Ukraine which had been suspended for 55 days, that the Javelins were never affected by the freeze

Dem Maloney has now turned Sondland into a hostile witness and is threatening him with perjury. #ImpeachmentHearings I told you all this morning.

(1 of 4) From the net: As for the good LtCol Vindman, it seems as though he thinks he’s a LtGen, which is still not a high enough rank to usurp the President.

The Special Counsel legal advisor to the Deputy Director of the FBI really shouldn’t be asking if investigations have been opened into presidential candidates they don’t like, and investigations should be into potential *crimes* not specific *people*

Given Strzok opened Crossfire Hurricane himself, it’s legitimate to question whether he was motivated by a desire to investigate Trump *personally*, rather than any genuine investigative leads into Russian interference and potential links to the campaign…

N.B. The Strzok response has previously been reported, but I couldn’t find any prior reporting of Lisa Page’s question (“Have we opened on him yet?”) that prompted Strzok’s response. If you have seen it before, please let me know /ENDS
