It also ignores all the evidence — including a phone call between Trump and Zelensky that we have a loose transcript of — where Trump *clearly* pressured Ukraine to open an investigation into the Bidens for his political benefit, and, you know, the actual decision to hold up aid. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Jim Jordan just laid out the GOP argument: -There were 3 meetings w/ Zelensky where quid pro quo didn't come up (2 while Zelensky didn't know aid was held up) -Aid released and no investigation happened Ignores all evidence of Trump endeavoring to use aid to get investigation. — PolitiTweet.org

So Republicans intend to use their time at this hearing to relitigate 2016? I guess the intention here is to just confuse and traffic in as many Trump buzz words as possible while undermining none of the horribly damning testimony we just heard? — PolitiTweet.org

The case against impeachment rests on people just insisting over and over again that there was "no quid pro quo" while making it painfully clear that there was a quid pro quo. — PolitiTweet.org

William Taylor testifies that Gordon Sondland communicated to Ukraine that the security assistance was held up "pending" the investigations into Burisma and the Bidens. Gordon Sondland's earlier testimony really looking, well, like purposeful lying. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
William Taylor careful to not draw a *direct* line between U.S. aid to Ukraine and Ukrainian deaths, but he testifies "it is certainly true" that the aid helps Ukraine fight Russia and Ukrainians die every week. Seems extremely plausible that this U.S. aid holdup cost lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Well, pretty clear that Gordon Sondland played a pretty active role in the quid pro quo and that he was *less than forthcoming* in his deposition, even after correcting it. Sondland apparently had a phone conversation with Trump about "the investigations" that an aide overheard. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
It's not a "quid pro quo," it's just a "this for that." — PolitiTweet.org

William Taylor testifies that U.S. foreign policy was "undercut by the irregular efforts led by Mr. Giuliani." — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
William Taylor's testimony is incredibly damning: -Establishes quid pro quo between Zelensky meeting and investigation -Establishes that Ukrainian govt thought investigation into Burisma was political -Establishes that WH used security aid to pressure Ukraine further — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
William Taylor says the Zelensky meeting at the White House was "conditioned" on the Burisma investigation. He also says the directive to hold security aid came from the President, to the chief of staff, to the OMB. That would be the quid pro quo. — PolitiTweet.org

William Taylor could definitely do the radio play-by-play for a Patriots game, with Brady — near-side right, Edelman far-side left — marching down the field left-to-right on your radio dial. (This is actually a good tweet for the people who know what I'm talking about thanks.) — PolitiTweet.org

George Kent's State Department bio is hilariously State Department — Harvard, SAIS, NDU, speaks English, Ukrainian, Russian, Thai, and some Polish, German, and Italian — but the last line... Big Sox Guy. George from Cambridge. https://t.co/hJbrBxFdGJ — PolitiTweet.org

Schiff's opening statement is a pretty good summary of the Ukraine scandal, as well as the various White House defenses. He seems locked on to "get over it," which, you'll recall, was so much so the official White House line at one point that the Trump campaign made T-shirts! — PolitiTweet.org
