Figures constitutional patriotism. It look like President Trump might get away. Most americans didnt know anything about it in the few who knew of it would be too afraid, too intimidated to cross the most powerful man on earth. President trump could rest easy. But if donald trump misjudged the american character, the framers of our constitution did not. I account for 17 honorable Public Servants who came forward to testify over the intimidation and disparagement of the president. Is that right, mr. Goldman . Yes, there were 17. I counted 17,000 officials who served republican and democratic president s alike who came to testify. In fact, four of President Trumps own National Security staffers came forward
to report trumps scheme to nsc lawyers as soon as they learned about it. Didnt they can make mr. Goldman . Morrison and vindman went to the lawyers. Yes. That move me a lot. My father was a staffer on the National Security council under President Kennedy and he said the most important
smith correct. ambassador sondland said that president trump himself brought up the words quid pro quo? that s right. ambassador sondland also said that too. mr. goldman, what did the committee make of this fact? it was quite odd the president would volunteer in response to nothing about a quid pro quo that there was no. quid pro quo. what was more important immediately after that was which is effectively conduct that amounts to the quid pro quo. there is no quid pro quo but you have to go to the microphone to make the announcement. what did the committee make about the fact that according to ambassador taylor and mr. morrison right after president trump said no quid pro quo, president trump then told ambassador sondland that ukrainian president zelensky would have to go to the microphone and announce the investigations of biden and the

country that s attacking our elections in real time. with that, i yield. the gentleman yields back. mr. brief parliamentary inquiry about the schedule. already recognized, he has the time. are you going to recognize him about his parliamentary? i m going to answer that schedule shortly. democrats want the rules to apply when it benefits them and not to apply when republicans invoke them. nine hours ago now, mr. burke, hired gun for the democrats go at 30 minutes to spread his partisan rhetoric and 37 minutes to examine witnesses for that s 27 minutes more than most of these in the committee that was elected by their constituents.
right? writes. according to the u.s. investor to ukraine and we have ambassador taylor s testimony there, it wasn t until ambassador sondland told the ukrainians that there would be , but zelensky agreed to the investigations president trump was demanding, correct? that s right, yes. furthermore the committee heard testimonies that they felt they had no choice but to comply with president trump s demands. correct? yes, even after the aide was released. in fact, when asked of president trump in september whether he felt pressured, presidents lenski said, quote , i m sorry, i do not want to be involved in the elections of the usa. is that right? that sounds right if you are reading the quote. the president and some of his
