He denies that an investigation into Biden was part of the consideration. But he’s just established that the aid was in fact conditioned on Ukrainian cooperation with Trump’s domestic political priority vis a vis Democrats in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org

Mulvaney says the Ukraine aid was in fact tied to Trump’s desire for an investigation of supposed Ukrainian collaboration with Democrats in 2016. He describes it as one of three factors, the other two being a general concern about corruption and a belief Europe should do more. — PolitiTweet.org

Mulvaney says money for Ukraine was held up because the president doesn’t like foreign aid in general, but acknowledges that Trump also raised with him the 2016 conspiracy theories that Bossert had told the president were “completely debunked." — PolitiTweet.org

During meeting, Trump trashed Mattis, his first defense secretary, calling him “the world’s most overrated general. You know why? He wasn’t tough enough. I captured ISIS. Mattis said it would take 2 years. I captured them in 1 month.” (Per Democratic official.) — PolitiTweet.org

Trump to Erdogan: “History will look upon you favorably if you get this done the right and humane way. It will look upon you forever as the devil if good things don’t happen. Don’t be a tough guy. Don’t be a fool!” (White House confirms letter obtained by @trish_regan) — PolitiTweet.org

Graham blasts Trump for saying the Turkey-Kurd conflict “has nothing to do with us,” warning that if the president keeps making statements like that, it "will be a disaster worse than President Obama’s decision to leave Iraq.” @esullivannyt https://t.co/TX33Hd1daM — PolitiTweet.org

Trump defends his handling of the Turkish attack on America's Kurdish allies in Syria, saying his decisions have been "strategically brilliant." The fighting there "has nothing to do with us" and the Kurds are "not angels. They're not angels." — PolitiTweet.org

As Biden tries to deflect Trump attacks on Hunter, he has raised as many questions as he has answered. If his family will shun foreign business if he becomes president, voters may wonder why they didn’t do it as vice president. @katieglueck @alexburnsNYT https://t.co/alUEjm5iSC — PolitiTweet.org

In the White House ward room, Sondland insisted he was in charge of Ukraine policy, a moment that reminded Hill of Al Haig declaring he was in charge after Reagan was shot. According to whom? Hill asked. The president, Sondland answered. @npfandos https://t.co/KEg6tj6HYl — PolitiTweet.org
