Ambassador Taylor's testimony drew "a lot of sighs and gasps" from Congress in reaction to “how pervasive the efforts were to tie an investigation of Burisma and 2016 election ‘interference’ to a White House meeting and aid being released.”
"Eyebrows frozen raised," a source in the room tells me of Amb. Taylor's deposition. The "most thorough account of everything so far," source adds.
ABC News' @benyc:
Rep. Lynch on Taylor: “This testimony is a sea change,” adding that it could “accelerate” impeachment timeline in the House.
@RepAndyLevin: “All I have to say is that in my 10 short months in Congress—it’s not even noon, right—and this is my most disturbing day in Congress so far. Very troubling,”
Wall Street Journal's @rebeccaballhaus reporting

Representative Ted Lieu: “What he said was incredibly damning to the president of the United States."
New York Times (@shearm @npfandos) also include second source confirming Lieu's observation.
