Itinerary for a trip to Ukraine in August organized by the Atlantic Council think tank reveals that a staffer on Rep. Adam Schiff’s House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence held a meeting during the trip with acting U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bill Taylor, now a key witness for Democrats pursuing impeachment.

The Atlantic Council is funded by and works in partnership with Burisma, the natural gas company at the center of allegations regarding Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden.

Taylor himself has evidenced a close relationship with the Burisma-funded Atlantic Council, writing analysis pieces published on the Council’s website and serving as a featured speaker for the organization’s events. He also served for nine years as senior advisor to the U.S.-Ukraine Business Council, which has co-hosted scores of events with the Atlantic Council.

As Breitbart News reported, Thomas Eager, a staffer on Schiff’s House Intelligence Committee, took a trip to Ukraine in August billed as a bipartisan “Ukraine Study Trip” in which ten Congressional staffers participated.

Precisely. A well coached ‘witness’ with no first hand OR second hand knowledge What could go wrong?
 
Democrats are hailing testimony from senior State Department official Bill Taylor on Tuesday as their “smoking gun” to prove that President Trump withheld military aid from Ukraine unless they investigated former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden.

Rep. Lacy Clay (D-MO) tweeted, “I was in the room. Jaws dropped, heads shook in disbelief, this president and his enablers willfully put #NationalSecurity at risk to benefit his political campaign. This wasn’t just a smoking gun, it was a smoking cannon.”

Rep. Andy Levin (D-MI) told reporters it was his “most disturbing day in the Congress so far.”

However, Republicans said Taylor, the top U.S. official at the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, produced no smoking gun and only recounted hearsay.

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY), who is on the House Foreign Affairs Committee and was present for Taylor’s interview, told Breitbart News on Wednesday that Taylor had no direct knowledge of any alleged quid pro quo.

Barr better get this cleaned up or there's going to be hell to pay as these corrupt bastards are exposed. The media can't control the information anymore. The uprising next year is going to stun the Democrats. The fact Trump has set records for campaign donations already should be a bright light off in Democrat's head.

The reason you haven't heard anything about today's witness is she contradicted Taylor's testimony. That's about ten to one witness ratio defending Trump.

Nobody knew this was happening in August.
 
I'm telling ya, Taylor is Whistleblower No. 1

I read Taylor's opening statement and it shows him running around trying to extract statements from the Trump administration big boys and people in Ukraine. Line after line, he engages in hearsay, trying to drum up support for his "quid pro quo" creation. And remember, this guy only began his job in June 2019. My guess....he was a plant.
 
I’ve read the transcript. Trump asked Zelensky to look into Biden and Hunter with regard to the prosecution being shut down. Of that there is no doubt, but the transcript I read involved no definitive quid pro quo, certainly nothing inculpatory.

Does somebody have a transcript that shows something different?
