talk to mr. giuliani to address the president s concerns. that s a quote. however, sondland also thought, said that he thought the investigations were solely about fighting public corruption. not initially realizing that he says much later, the whole biden connection. then he also acknowledged that this text message in which he insisted there would be this quote, no quid pro quos of any kind, actually came from the president himself when they spoke over the phone. so this is the quote. i asked the president what do you want from ukraine? and the president responded nothing. there is no quid pro quo. the president says, he repeated, no quid pro quo multiple times. a very short call and i recall the president was in a bad mood. jessica snide hearchneider has l things gordon sondland.
