Sondland's NEW story:
No much evidence.....a whole lotta opinion and guessing.
Oops!
WASHINGTON—A diplomat who is a key witness in the House impeachment probe said he told a Ukrainian official this summer that aid to that country would remain frozen until Kyiv committed to investigations sought by President Trump, reversing earlier testimony that he didn’t know of any such link.
Diplomat Sondland Told Ukrainians Held-Up Aid Was Tied to Investigations
The WSJ doesn't seem to be behind a paywall today. Not on a Foxfire private browser, anyway. Don't read it if you're a Trump supporter.
The same "presumptions" he believes "likely" happened even though "he did not know".
From a guy who lied under oath.......
IMPEACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From a guy who donated $1 million for the honor of being Trump's bagman. He delivered the extortion demand to Andriy Yermak in person. He said so, under oath.
What was the extortion demand? Let's here what was said.
His testimony:
5. Also, I now do recall a conversation on September 1, 2019, in Warsaw with Mr. Yermak. This brief pull-aside conversation followed the larger meeting involving Vice President Pence and President Zelensky, in which President Zelensky had raised the issue of the suspension of U.S. aid to Ukraine directly with Vice President Pence. After that large meeting, I now recall speaking individually with Mr. Yermak, where I said that resumption of U.S. aid would likely not occur until Ukraine provided the public anti-corruption statement that we had been discussing for many weeks. I also recall some question as to whether the public statement could come from the newly appointed Ukrainian Prosecutor General, rather than from President Zelensky directly.
6. Soon thereafter, I came to understand that, in fact, the public statement would need to come directly from President Zelensky himself. I do not specifically recall how I learned this, but I believe that the information may have come either from Mr. Giuliani or from Ambassador Volker, who may have discussed this with Mr. Giuliani. In a later conversation with Ambassador Taylor, I told him that I had been mistaken about whether a public statement could come from the Prosecutor General; I had come to understand that the public statement would have to come from President Zelensky himself.
