How neighbors took action when the baby in the next door apartment would not stop crying. Good thursday morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us. We begin with two more impeachment witnesses going before the cameras today after hearing testimony from President Trumps dealmaker on ukraine. U. N. Ambassador Gordon Sondland confirmed what the president previously denied, the existence of a quid pro quo. Look here at the front page of this mornings New York Times which quotes sondland saying, we followed the president s orders. Sondland also told lawmakers other top officials knew what was going on. But the president and his allies are pushing back. It comes as we learn new details about when ukraine knew that its military aid had been frozen. Abcs Megan Tevrizian has more from capitol hill. Megan, good morning. Reporter good morning, janai and kenneth. Even though ambassador sondland donated a Million Dollars to President Trumps campaign, the president now is distancing himself from the ambassador. The most anticipated witness in the impeachment inquiry living up to expectations delivering the most explosive details yet. Who would benefit from an investigation of the bidens . I assume President Trump would benefit. There we have it. Reporter u. S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland confirming there was a quid pro quo regarding ukraine and implicating several top officials including Vice President mike pence and secretary of state mike pompeo. Everyone was in the loop. It was no secret. Many people. Well, secretary pompeo . Yes. And acting chief of staff mulvaney . Yes. Reporter republicans hammering sondland on whether the president explicitly told the ambassador aid was contingent on the investigations. Nobody else on this planet told you that donald trump was tying aid to these investigations, is that correct . I think i already testified to that. No, answer the question. Yes. Reporter and new this morning details on the time line on when ukraine knew aid was being withheld. Top pentagon official laura cooper testifying the ukrainians were aware that the u. S. Was withholding military aid as early as july 25th, the same day of that phone call between President Trump and ukraine president zelensky. This contradicts the republican argument that ukraine didnt know about the delay in aid so there couldnt be a quid pro quo. President trump declaring victory seizing on a small part of sondlands testimony. And now heres my response that he gave, i want nothing. Thats what i want from ukraine. Thats what i said. I want nothing. I said it twice. Reporter and when President Trump told this to sondland matters here because it was after the white house was officially informed of the whistleblower complaint. Kenneth, janai. All right, megan. Thank you. And a new poll from the swing state of wisconsin shows 40 of registered voters believe the president should be impeached and removed from office. Thats down 4 from last month. The drop in support was seen in both parties. The poll was conducted between november 13th and 17th before this weeks testimony. New subpoenas have been issued stemming from the investigation into two of Rudy Giulianis associates who are charged with Campaign Finance violations. Sources tell abc news the subpoenas from federal prosecutors in new york were sent to a lobbying firm and to a super pac that is backing President Trumps reelection campaign. Those same prosecutors have been investigating giuliani for allegedly violating lobbying and Campaign Finance laws. His two associates have also been linked to the Pressure Campaign against ukraine. Now to the big debate in atlanta, the democrats running for president facing off and clashing over health care, Foreign Policy and taxes. But abcs trevor ault reports all ten candidates did agree on one thing. Reporter after the historic day of impeachment proceedings in washington, ten of the top democratic president ial candidates sparred over who deserves to challenge President Trump. We cannot simply be consumed by donald trump because if we are, you know what, were going to lose the election. Reporter the candidates largely agreed on impeaching the president. We have to establish the principle no one is above the law. It is a crimiteri engaged in by the president , from what we heard today, the Vice President , the secretary of state and the chief of staff. Donald trump doesnt want me to be the nominee. Thats pretty clear. Reporter former Vice President biden was asked if he would support a criminal investigation of trump after he leaves office. Look, i would not direct my Justice Department like this president does. Id let them make their independent judgment. Reporter there was plenty of disagreement on other issues including the legalization of marijuana. This week i hear him literally say that i dont think we should legalize marijuana. I thought you might have been high when you said it, and let me tell you reporter and the candidates once again clashed on health care. The reason i insist on medicare for all who want it as the strategy to deliver on that goal we share of universal health care is that that is something that as a governing strategy we can unify the American People around. The fact is that right now the vast majority of democrats do not support medicare for all. It couldnt pass the United States senate right now. Reporter but biden is getting the most attention for his gaffe when talking about his support from senator Carol Moseley braun saying the only black woman ever elected to the u. S. Senate endorses him. He said that with senator Kamala Harris standing just feet away from him. The only africanamerican woman thats ever been elected to the United States senate. A whole range of people. My point is thats not true. Thats not true. The other one is here. Reporter biden clarified that he meant to say braun was the first black woman to be elected to the senate. Look, the former Vice President s team will say he often has slips of the tongue and enjoys really strong support in the Africanamerican Community but this is a moment in the campaign where the former Vice President needs to be expanding his base. His numbers in the polls have been a little stagnant, and he needs to be growing his support. Reporter this may have been the last time on stage for some of the candidates. Only six of the ten have qualified for the next debate happening next month. Trevor ault, abc news, atlanta. All right.

I should have done a better job handling that situation. I have no ill will towards Myles Garrett. Great respect for his ability as a player. If Mason Rudolph is out there accepting some portion of the blame, and if there are sort of indirect character references, right, there are a lot of people that like Myles Garrett, you would think the league has to consider the overall idea of again indirect character witnesses for a guy that really hasnt been suspended before.
