Of a call he overheard between Trump and Sondland. In a restaurant. On a cell phone. That was not on speaker mode.
The Hill
Alas, these brave heroes of the Deep State come forward with the information to sink Trump. Once and for all.
Nearly 4 months after hearing this shocking conversation.
The Hill

House impeachment investigators on Friday heard from a new witness claiming first-hand knowledge of President Trump's effort to enlist Ukrainian leaders to dig up dirt on his domestic political opponents.
David Holmes, a State Department veteran now based in Kyiv, testified privately that he overheard a July phone conversation between Trump and Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, in which the president sought an update on "the investigation" — and Sondland delivered the news Trump had wanted, according to the opening remarks obtained by CNN.
“So, he’s gonna do the investigation?” Trump asked, according to Holmes's testimony.
"He’s gonna do it,” Sondland replied.
The call, Holmes said, occurred at a restaurant in Kyiv on July 26, one day after Trump's now-famous phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in which Trump asked Zelensky for "a favor" in the form of investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and the 2016 elections.
quote:
On the July 26 call, Holmes testified, Sondland told Trump that Zelensky would do anything the president asked – including comply with the investigation requests – because the Ukrainian leader "loves your a--."
Holmes also testified that he asked Sondland after the call if it was true that Trump “did not 'give a shite about Ukraine.'”
Sondland responded that Trump only cares about "big stuff," Holmes testified. Holmes said he noted plenty of big things happening in Ukraine, including a five-year-old war with Russia in the east.
"He meant 'big stuff' that benefits the President, like the Biden investigation that Mr. [Rudy] Giuliani was pushing," Holmes said, paraphrasing Sondland.
Holmes said Sondland's cell phone was not on speaker mode, but he could nonetheless hear Trump's words because "the president's voice was very loud and recognizable."
Alas, these brave heroes of the Deep State come forward with the information to sink Trump. Once and for all.

What a load of garbage.

Couldn't they just ask Sondland? Either way, we already know Trump asked for an investigation. This isn't new and taken at it's face, has nothing to do with the accusation.

All this tells me is that they know their prior shite isn't taking.
As if the person with more direct knowledge would be the last to come forward

If someone heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend, who heard it from another; or heard a phone call from a distance (not on speaker phone mode) Maybe it was Trump's voice because he thinks so. It is leaking Executive Privileged possibly classified immunity information.
This had gotten ridiculous beyond ridiculous. It is sad and depressing that the MSM and Fox day time will tout this garbage as a smoking gun without citing Executive POTUS protections and hearsay.

I wonder if the democrats will poll the word 'bribery' again? Why not just say

Expect at least three more "witnesses" like this

Amazing how well these people know who is talking and how they can hear both sides of a conversation.

Steve Scalise said there was a law signed in 2016, that any country that the US is sending money to, the president has the authority to make sure corruption is being investigated. Pelosi signed the bill.

If you overhear something. It’s still fricking hearsay.
Democrats are idiots.

It’s always amazed me how throughout Trump’s term, every time the democrats get their investigations shut down somehow a new witness appears with a story to counter whatever the criticism of their attack is. We saw it with Kavanaugh, we saw it with Russian collusion, and here we are again. The part that’s really mind boggling is how the media never seems to notice the trend and treats it as legit in order to keep people watching

Even if that was true word for word nowhere does it mention anything about pressuring anybody to do anything.
