Internal White House debate stifles release of Pence-Zelenskiy call
🛎QuidProQuo3🛎

Pence said he had "no objection" to releasing a transcript, but adm is divided on whether it could help or hurt Trump's cause.

Vindman will say that he views his testimony as an act of patriotism, because he saw Trump’s corrupt conduct as damaging to US NatSec.

🚨BREAKING: American🇺🇸hero Lt. Col. Alexander #Vindman told House #impeachment investigators that the WH “transcript” of @realDonaldTrump’s #Ukrainegate call “omitted crucial words and phrases,” and that his attempts to restore them failed.🤬

nytimes.com/2019/10/29/us/…
#Vindman said the OMISSIONS included Trump’s assertion that there were recordings of Joe Biden discussing Ukraine #corruption, and an explicit mention by Ukraine’s president of Burisma Holdings, the energy company whose board employed Biden’s son Hunter.🤬

#ReleaseTheTranscript
The WH released a MEMO, not a verbatim #transcript, of Trump’s #Ukrainegate call. The call lasted ~30 minutes, but the MEMO only covered ~11 minutes of discussion.🧐

WHAT DID TRUMP DISCUSS⁉️

@HouseDemocrats *must* get the RECORDING of the call‼️

💥First direct witness on Ukraine call >> Top WH Ukraine expert & decorated military officer will tell impeachment investigators he twice reported concerns about Trump’s pressure tactics on Ukraine nytimes.com/2019/10/28/us/… #UkraineGate #Impeachment
LtCol Vindman wasn't just worried about Trump's illegal demand. As a natsec expert AND Soviet immigrant, he understood the implications: Dragging Ukraine into partisan investigations would undoubtedly result in losing bipartisan support—bad for OUR natl security, good for Russia.
Trump propagandists smear hero Vindman b/c the truth is clear as day. His testimony is first-hand direct evidence of Trump's abuse of power, directing a campaign to pressure Ukraine to benefit himself—& Russia—at the expense of our national security goals. int.nyt.com/data/documenth…

As @RitaKonaev notes, "Mattis had no problem disagreeing w/Obama about transgender people in the military or women in combat but won’t criticize Trump for asking foreign powers for dirt about political opponents.

This isn’t about him being above politics. This is his politics."
Excellent point here, and makes you wonder why Mattis' deference to the commander-in-chief is selectively applied in this manner 🤔
7 freshman House Ds, all with natsec experience: "If true, we believe these actions represent an impeachable offense ...

We call on our colleagues in Congress to consider the use of all congressional authorities available, including inherent contempt."

Trump is about to highlight the growing health crises mounting in several CA cities that have completely botched dealing with the homeless issue.

theepochtimes.com/san-francisco-…
Once several CA cities made it legal for the homeless to essentially set up permanent camps on the streets with no bathroom or trash removal capabilities, this led directly to mounting health hazards.
We are now seeing the same kind of short sighted policies in other cities, such as Austin, TX where the mayor just made it legal for homeless people to set up camps in public areas.
