House questions Volker as impeachment probe ramps up

Others Republicans seen headed to the deposition were Rep. Mike Turner (Ohio), an Intelligence member, and Rep. Lee Zeldin (N.Y.), who sits on Foreign Affairs.
In a statement Thursday morning, Turner disclosed that the first hour of the deposition consisted of staffers for Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) questioning Volker. Turner praised Volker as an "incredible diplomat" and slammed Schiff's impeachment probe.
"It is deeply unfortunate and regrettable that Schiff's show trial investigation has clearly affected Volker's ability to advance U.S. interests with Ukraine. It is my strong belief that Volker would not have been involved in nor permitted anything inappropriate, let alone illegal, in his service to our country," Turner said. "Today he continued his legacy of integrity under questioning from Schiff's staff. I do not believe that Volker's testimony advanced Schiff's impeachment agenda."
The Democrats on hand included Rep. Eric Swalwell (Calif.), an Intelligence member who dropped out of the 2020 presidential race this summer; Rep. Jamie Raskin (Md.), a former constitutional law professor who serves on Oversight; and Rep. Gerry Connolly (Va.), a Foreign Affairs member.
The first lawmaker seen leaving the meeting, Raskin, declined to comment. Connolly left soon after, saying he needed to attend a town hall in his district but would not answer any questions about Volker...……….more

How about we just all sit back and relax while all this nonsense runs its course?


Again, If they did nothing the people would hold them to task for it in the election. If they at least hold the inquiry they can find out the truth of things and get it all settled once and for all.


Dems were screwed either way.

You really don't know what is going on, do you.

Sure he does, everyone does, the Dems. are trying to go against 63,000.000 US citizens wishes and change the results of their 2016 POTUS choice any which way possible.

Actually now it is looking like a coup d'etat where Pelosi is after a 2 for by lumping Pence into the Impeachment, leaving her as POTUS.

.. you think that's all it was, a phone call to a 'colleague'?


Have you even read what's going on?


"I'd like you to do us a favor though"


That right there is his sinking line.


And the fact he admitted it today but y'know.

That is the important stuff . They really have no choice but to circle the wagons to deflect the story away from their nominal saviour . Without old Joe the field thins awfully fast . The big money players don’t want Warren , Bernie appears to be in failing health , Harris is not getting traction and down it goes . Rumour has it that the queen might come riding in to save the day .

What more than a phone call to congratulate and giving a foreign leader a heads up about corruption in his country, and asked the foreign leader to help his investigators out on 2016 corruption in the US election?

Count 1: That Donald Trump did solicit a thing of value from a non-U.S. citizen, to wit the President of Ukraine, to aid his political campaign, in violation of 52 USC 30121.

Count 2: That Donald Trump withheld without cause $391 million appropriated by the Congress for Ukraine and scheduled to be delivered to Ukraine.

Count 3: That Donald Trump failed to respond to Congressional subpoenae, in violation of 2 USC 192, and thus committed obstruction of Congress.

Count 4: That Donald Trump did threaten and attempt to expose a "whistleblower" in violation of the Intelligence Authorization Act for 2014.

Trump urges China to investigate the Bidens, despite impeachment inquiry over a similar request to Ukraine


President Trump on Thursday suggested China should investigate 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son Hunter, despite the fact that House Democrats have launched an impeachment inquiry over Trump's request that the Ukrainian president do the same.

Trump's allegations regarding Hunter Biden and China center on the younger Biden joining the board of an investment firm whose partners included Chinese entities while his father was vice president. The president and his allies have provided no evidence to back up their claims of wrongdoing.

source: WAPO

Seems that he sees nothing wrong in involving Not only Ukraine , but also CHINA........in the US election........

He is blatant about his requests..........probably thinking if he does it out in the open......it will seem'OK".......or "normal"

He is IMPEACHING HIMSELF. No lawyer , worth his profession........would condone this kind of conduct.

He is repeating the tactics of the last election.......where he asked Russia.........(as everyone recalls)

He is marinating in his own toxicity.........

Giuliani was warned that Ukrainian claims of Bidens�� misconduct were not credible, Trump��s ex-envoy tells lawmakers
Kurt D. Volker is said to have testified that he impressed upon Trump attorney Rudolph W. Giuliani that the Ukrainian officials offering derogatory information about the former vice president and his son were unreliable.

It is very satisfying to watch this clown show self destruct, isn't it?
