How I know that I’m back in New York:

The MTA is still rotten and dysfunctional. Back to Washington as the week begins.
It’s a beautiful city all the same.
Update: After a half hour wait in the 42-degree and windy open air, a train whizzed by and did not stop at the station.

Chairman Schiff: "Let me get to the top line here, Ambassador Sondland."

That's the White House meeting being a quid pro quo in exchange for investigations.

"Correct," Sondland said.

Q: And everybody knew it.
A: Correct.
Schiff goes through the statutory language, reciting the elements of bribery: an "official act" in return for a "thing of value."

This for that.
Devastating testimony by Ambassador Sondland:

"[Ukrainian President Zelensky] had to announce the investigations. He didn't actually have to do them."

Trump insists he requested these investigations because of his concerns about corruption in Ukraine, not for political gain.

Some five days after Trump's call with Ukrainian President Zelensky, the president spoke to Putin.

Speaking to me on a brisk interview across elevators, escalators and the Capitol subway, Senator @TimKaine raised questions about that call. courthousenews.com/tim-kaine-has-…
@timkaine In the story, Rep. Ted Lieu said of Lt. Col. Vindman's testimony this morning: "They’re freaked out a decorated, military combat veteran is telling the truth to the American people."

On Friday, @RepTedLieu called David Holmes' closed-door testimony "damning."

The House Intelligence Committee just released all 213 pages of it, detailing the Sondland-Trump phone call.

Doc: intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
@RepTedLieu @CourthouseNews "In particular, I asked Ambassador Sondland if it was true that the President did not give a shit about Ukraine. Ambassador Sondland agreed that the President did not give a shit about Ukraine."
@RepTedLieu @CourthouseNews Question from Democrats' attorney: So whose political agenda was Rudy Giuliani promoting in Ukraine?

A: I came to believe it was the President's political agenda.

New York: it's not just a city! there's an entire state out there! a state with just over SIX THOUSAND NRHP listings. this is the most of any state, by far. even if you take away the roughly 1000 in New York City, it's more than any other state. so this might take, like, a while.

NEW: former FBI special agent Peter Strzok has sued the government over his firing. The lawsuit: documentcloud.org/documents/6244…
Strzok’s lawyer: “The lawsuit shows that, in bowing to the president’s desires, FBI leaders trampled Pete’s free speech and due process rights in ways that should be deeply troubling to all in government, and indeed, to all Americans.”
.@petestrzok would like to know what’s up with those New York Field Office leaks.

Interesting.. a British tanker in the Persian Gulf has come to a complete stop. Would expect it to start heading south but as of now it's completely stopped.

Boat is the PACIFIC VOYAGER, image of the ship and it's location compared to Iran seen below.
Don't panic or anything, I'm going to monitor this until it makes another movement.
#UPDATE: Boat still stopped, it's status is officially stopped instead of underway using engine. It's at 0.5 knts as of now.
