context of holding up the military aid, and just get used to it or just get over it or whatever it was he said. because that s how we role. those are my words, not his. but that s the import. yeah, there s going to be politics and just get over it. well, if we care about the big stuff, we can t just get over it. now, my colleagues have had a lot of defenses to all of this evidence, which has piled up day after day after day and it s amazing they hear you testify, mr. holmes, that it was clear that the security assistance was being withheld. it was clear to all of the americans. it was clear to the ukrainians. you testified the ukrainians felt pressure. they still feel pressure to this day. and what do my colleagues say in the same hearing? i guess they are not listening. the ukrainians felt no pressure, there is no evidence they felt pressure, which gets into their
interesting this week, even gordon sondland testifies. because there are some people who think gordon sondland is going to realize that he went a little too far and possibly say, look, i was just doing whatever the president told me to do. there s some republicans who want to make the case that gordon sondland went a bit too far and was out of realm of what president trump was hoping he would do. willie, they ve already proven, have they not, we already have testimony that the ukrainians felt pressure, right? yes. yes. that the ukrainians felt pressure that they didn t want to do this, they didn t want to become embroiled in u.s. domestic politics but they knew they were forced to do it if they wanted the aid. another lie, they didn t even know about the military aid. thanned up bei that ended up being a lie as well. at the joint press conference with zelensky and president trump, he got zelensky to say i felt no pressure. even zelensky says no pressure. the associated press
seinfeld of impeachments. impeachment process on a u.s. a show about nothing. president. that begins in just over one sound and fury signifying hour. here in the foyer of the nothing. at the end of the day, i longworth house office building think we all know the way this movie is going to end. outside of the hearing room we took you in a while back, we re brian: building on rudy s point what joe is saying. expecting ambassador bill if you watch and flip around to find out what s going on and hot guests are as soon taylor, ukrainian ambassador who indicated in depositions he as you say a lawmaker say believes there was a shadow the word extortion or policy run by rudy giuliani, bribery, it pops up on the other networks. senior state department official it s as if they are in total george kent who said he felt president trump wanted to hear president zelensky say the word soyinka. this isoyinka. investigations. clinton, biden, they will be setting down less than an hour. that is signific
good morning. good to be with you. sandra: what is unfolding on capitol hill this morning? you will see a few more transcripts released from some of the secret schiff hearings. obviously the vote last week, the one that kicked off a formal impeachment inquiry not using the traditional method of clinton and nixon. still a one-sided show. the bottom line is they are trying to remove a sitting president for something president trump did in a conversation with president zelensky that neither side felt was inappropriate. zelensky never felt pressure. ukraine got the money and they want to remove a sitting president more because they want to undo the 2016 election than because there was a quid pro quo wrongdoing. bill: yesterday we learned the ambassador said she felt threatened by the president and we heard from a former senior state advisor saying sagging morale at the department of state. i don t know if that s a crime. what do you see in the transcripts yourself? first of all w
