Volker: "At no time was I aware of or took part in an effort to urge Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Biden."
Volker: "I believed that the President’s long-held negative view toward Ukraine was causing hesitation in actually scheduling the meeting."

Sorry Dems.

A sad day for me.

Ginger Baker was a legend.
In honorarium, some of my favorite current, active drummers.
3) Martin Lopez - Opeth, Currently Soen.

I don't know how he does it, but Lopez infuses feeling and subtlety that should not be available to a drummer.

Yes. He is. Another epic fail from Dems...
They just don't fully realize it yet.
Ask yourselves this simple question:

Why were Barr & Durham in Italy?

"Nearly two dozen officials"

Always unnamed.

At this point, the media have the "leakers" on speed dial.
Don't forget about that pesky "Leak Task Force" tho...

Just sayin'
This is the problem

Volker Testimony Directly Contradicted Democrat Impeachment Narrative thefederalist.com/2019/10/04/tes…
Congressional testimony from the former top American envoy to Ukraine directly contradicts the impeachment narrative offered by congressional Democrats and their media allies.
Ambassador Kurt Volker, who served for two years as the top U.S. diplomatic envoy to Ukraine, testified on Thursday that he was never aware of and never took part in any effort to push the Ukrainian government to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden or his son Hunter.

Former US @SpecRepUkraine #KurtVolker provided testimony to the #HouseIntelligenceCommittee on Oct 3.

He contradicted several of the claims of the #WhistleblowerComplaint at the center of the Democrat's #ImpeachmentInquiry of President Trump. (Thread 👇) theepochtimes.com/ukraine-envoys…
Volker told lawmakers he did not partake in urging #Ukraine to investigate @JoeBiden.

The testimony directly contradicted a hearsay claim in the anonymous #WhistleblowersComplaint suggesting that #Volker and the @USAmbEU, #GordonSondland engaged with Ukrainian officials to…
…help them handle Trump’s request to investigate #Biden.

“[At] no time was I aware of or took part in an effort to urge Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Biden,” Volker said. scribd.com/document/42877…

NEWS: Amb. Kurt Volker debunked whistleblower claim in testimony to Congress:

"At no time was I aware of or took part in an effort to urge Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Biden."

WB claimed Volker advised Ukrainians on how to “navigate” Trump's demand to Zelensky.
Volker told Congress he didn't know Biden was mentioned on Trump-Zelensky call.

This debunks whistleblower claim that Volker advised Ukrainians on how to handle Trump's request to investigate Biden.

Testimony: scribd.com/document/42877…
Amb. Volker told Congress he thought Lutsenko's allegations about Biden were self-serving.

Volker: "The suggestion that [Biden] would be influenced in his duties as Vice President by money for his son simply has no
credibility to me."

Volker: "At no time was I aware of or took part in an effort to urge Ukraine to investigate Biden."

May 23: Days after Trump raged about Biden/Ukraine on Fox, Volker met with him and Trump spoke of his discussions w/ Giuliani. But he never brought up investigating Biden? Please.
Volker's claim that "at no time" was he aware of any effort to pressure Ukraine to investigate the Bidens is laughable.

Key item in #VolkerTestimony

He tries to claim "at no time was I aware of or took part in an effort to urge Ukraine to investigate" Biden.

Who is he fooling?

NEW YORK TIMES had a blockbuster story May 9, 2019 with Giuliani on the record saying this was the point of the effort.
Elsewhere Volker tries to say:

Sure I was involved in confidential discussions to pressure Ukraine to investigate "Burisma," but we didn't use the word "Biden."

He's really insulting everyone's intelligence.

Here's from NYT May 9 story that Volker SURELY READ.

Burisma=Biden🤫
Or maybe Volker somehow also missed this earlier New York Times May 1 blockbuster story establishing that Giuliani's efforts to pressure Ukraine on Burisma investigation was all about Biden.

Sorry, Ambassador Volker, you're not wriggling out of this part of it.

Sounds like Volker's testimony yesterday was a pretty incredible display of gymnastics. nytimes.com/2019/10/04/us/…
Volker, in testimony: I never urged Ukraine to investigate Biden.

Volker, responding to a text in August about whether 'we' want Zelensky to give a press conferencing announcing Ukraine was investigating Biden: "Yes, I'm hoping we can convince him to do that!"
Volker, in testimony: This was all Giuliani's idea, it was Giuliani who wanted Ukraine to make a statement about Burisma and 2016. I convinced Ukraine not to.

Volker, in response to Ukraine's proposal to name Burisma and 2016 as investigation targets: "Sounds great!"
