Because Trump is trying to exonerate Putin in an effort to lift Russian sanctions – which has been Putin's goal since he installed Trump in the White House. Also, progress on Trump's Moscow Tower hinges on getting sanctions lifted.
Trump AG Bill Barr has held private meetings overseas with foreign intelligence officials seeking their help in a Justice Department inquiry that Trump hopes will discredit US intelligence agencies’ examination of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

NEW via @ErinBanco: Pompeo needed a scapegoat and only one person fit the mold: Kurt Volker.

Now the State Dept is bracing for impact. Volker’s interview with Congress could lay bare details of Pompeo’s involvement in the Trump-Giuliani Ukraine saga.
thedailybeast.com/mike-pompeo-pu…
@ErinBanco That being said, Kurt Volker had some eyebrow raising conflicts of interest re Ukraine.
@ErinBanco Volker holds positions with BGR Group [which lobbies for Ukraine] and the McCain Inst – both have financial ties to Raytheon, which manufactures the Javelin.

TODAY: State Department approved a $39M sale of additional Javelin anti-tank weapons to Ukraine.bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

During their presser last week Trump said he hoped Zelensky could work things out with Putin.

Tonight, protests erupted on Maidan in central Kyiv over Zelensky's backing of the Steinmeier Formula [capitulation to Russia re Donbass] with protestors chanting: “Zelensky out!”
Now Trump will be to demand the sanctions levied on Russia over Crimea be lifted. There's nothing he can do about the sanctions over Russia's election interference. But that's why he has Barr is flying around the world looking for way to exonerate Russia.

BREAKING: State Department’s inspector general will give an 'urgent' Ukraine briefing on the Hill Wednesday. The unusual nature and timing of the briefing – during congressional recess – suggest it may be connected to the whistleblower complaint.

@ABC More here, @Delavegalaw.
@ABC @Delavegalaw .@ScottMStedman is reporting that part of the IG’s urgent request to Congress has to do with Pompeo threatening his officers if they comply with Congressional inquiries.

#Trump is going to speak in the Rose Garden any minute now. Is he going to lie a bunch about reopening the government? Is he just going to yell "no collusion! witch hunt!" over and over again? Both? Stay tuned!
Oh hell, #Trump is going to take questions too. This is going to be a sh*tshow.
#Trump is running about a half hour late. I wonder if he's spent this whole time on the phone with Ann Coulter, begging for permission to cave?
