Decades who came to testify. In fact, four of President Trumps own National Security counsel staffers, hill, vindman, morrison and mcguire came forward to report trumps scheme to nsc lawyers as soon as they learned of it, didnt they, mr.

Had chairman schiff decided to man up rather than hiding behind Mister Goldman and his team of investigators we couldve gotten to the bottom of this to make sure that this never happens again. I do not want to see members of congress with their subpoena power without any type of cause and then to go the next step to publish the results in a report that is an abuse of power here we see a clear abuse of power on the part of the people th

So there were only a few potential groups of people that would have known about this complaint, you and your people within your office. Yes, sir.
