President Donald Trump—when asked why he didn't inform the House Intelligence Committee about the al-Baghdadi raid—said:

"The answer is because I think Adam Schiff is the biggest leaker in Washington."
In 2017, a leak to the NYT killed a great lead on Baghdadi.

Additional quote:

Trump: "You know that. I know that. We all know that. I've watched Adam Schiff leak. He's a corrupt politician. He's a leaker like nobody has ever seen before."
Correction: Gen. Tony Thomas did not call out NYT by name, but the paper did have a highly detailed, anonymously sourced article about the raid on the ISIS oil chief.
The exact question to Trump was: "Mr. President, are you concerned that Nancy Pelosi and others can't be trusted with this kind of information?"

George Kent said that Amb. Pyatt made a speech in Sept. 2015 and that it was clear the U.S. was "pushing for Shokin's ouster."

Transcript of Pyatt's speech says the U.S. wanted to work with Shokin in the fight against corruption.

🤔

Speech: web.archive.org/web/2015092609…
Amb. Pyatt did call for the firing of officials involved in the closing of the case against Zlochevsky in late December 2014.

But Shokin was not one of the officials involved. His term began in February 2015.
Notably, in earlier testimony, Kent showed that he was aware that the Zlochevsky case was closed before Shokin took office, which makes the following statement by Kent even odder in light of what Pyatt said in the speech.

May just be a memory lapse since this was years ago.

Victoria Nuland and Geoffrey Pyatt hatched the plan to withhold sovereign loan guarantees from Ukraine to force the firing of Viktor Shokin, the country's top prosecutor, according to George Kent's closed-door testimony.
At the time (late 2015):

Nuland - top State Dept. official handling Ukraine
Pyatt - U.S. ambassador to Ukraine
Shokin - prosecutor handling Burisma case
Joe Biden - VPOTUS
Hunter Biden - member of Burisma board
Nuland also

Rep. Tim Cole (R-Okla.) requests that debate time on impeachment resolution be expanded to four hours.

Democrats decline.

"It's a sad day for all of use," Cole says.
"On an issue as important as this, madam speaker, one hour of debate on a resolution written in the dark of night and marked up in a process where no Republican amendments were accepted is simply insufficient." -- Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.)
"Without due process and without a fair process that respects minority rights I do not believe the American people will regard this process as legitimate." -- Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.)

Conan, dog injured in al Baghdadi raid, honored by President Trump at White House

foxnews.com/politics/conan…
President Donald Trump honored Conan the hero dog who helped run down terror leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi with a ceremony at the White House Rose Garden Monday where he saluted the animal's toughness in the field as it solicited pats from Mike Pence. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7…
The dog was a good girl during her appearance with the first couple. She did not bark or make any threatening actions but, instead, sat with her tongue out and tail wagging, taking in calmly the rows of photographers taking her photo and reporters shouting questions.

Oh, snap! It's about to get ugly.
"You have to make sure you're not putting your party ahead of what is correct in this case... You should be calling for all of this to be sent to the intelligence committee. That's what the law says & that is what you should be advocating." Frmer Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R)
"This was not made by somebody living in outer space. This was somebody who was very concerned about what they heard on a communication, turned it over to the inspector general, who declared it a major problem. And now the administration won't follow the law." Gov John Kasich (R)

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
