UPDATE: Kurt Volker, one of 'Three Amigos,' amended his closed-door testimony and now does not dispute that military aid was linked to Ukraine announcing investigations, but claims he didn’t know that at the time and it only became clear to him after his Oct. 3 deposition. LOL.
NEW: Kurt Volker significantly revised portions of his closed-door testimony, including his earlier claim that no one asked about "investigations" during a Jul 10 White House meeting with Ukrainians, Sondland, Bolton, and others.

SCOOP: Indicted Giuliani associate, Lev Parnas, helped arrange meetings and calls in Europe for Devin Nunes in 2018.

Nunes aide Derek Harvey participated in the meetings, which were arranged to help Nunes’ "investigative work."

@woodruffbets Congressional records show Nunes and 3 of his aides—Harvey, Scott Glabe, and George Pappas—traveled to Europe from Nov 30 to Dec 3, 2018, during the time Nunes, as House Intel Cmte Chair, was "investigating" the origins of Mueller’s Russia probe.
#Maddow
@woodruffbets Derek Harvey, a top aide to Nunes [who accompanied Nunes his Parnas-aided trip to Europe in Nov 2018] "has been providing conservative politicians and journalists with information—and misinformation—about the anonymous CIA whistleblower."

Republicans have claimed for weeks that the Ukrainians didn't know about the hold on the aid during Trump's July 25 call, so there was no quid pro quo.

Pentagon official Laura Cooper: The Ukraine embassy was asking about the security assistance on Jul 25.
#ImpeachmentHearing
This knocks down a key GOP talking point that there was no quid pro quo because the Ukrainians didn't know about the hold on the aid during Trump's July 25 call.

Laura Cooper testifies the Ukrainians knew about the hold on Jul 25. #ImpeachmentHearing
Laura Cooper: On Jul 25, an email from State said House Foreign Affairs and Ukraine embassy were asking about the security assistance. 2 hours later, another email was sent saying "the Hill knows about the FMF situation and so does the Ukrainian embassy."

Oh wow, @RepSeanMaloney is ripping Sondland a new one for pretending to be "forthright," when, in fact, it took Sondland "three times to do so," as Sondland lied in his closed door testimony and then again in his revision.

THANK YOU, Rep. Maloney. 👏👏👏
#ImpeachmentHearing
@RepSeanMaloney Sondland says he "resents" the implication he's been less than forthcoming.

Maloney goes off, notes it's taken three tries: "All due respect sir, we respect your candor, but let’s be really clear what it took to get it out of you." 🔥
#ImpeachmentHearing
@RepSeanMaloney Maloney: "You've been very forthright, but this is your 3rd try to do so. Didn't work so well the 1st time, did it? Now we're here a 3rd time, so all due respect, sir, we appreciate your candor, but let's be really clear what it took to get it out of you."

Now in the afternoon session, #ImpeachmentInquiry testimony from former NSC top #Russia expert Tim Morrison and former US special envoy to #Ukraine, Kurt Volker.
Amb. Volker has amended his earlier testimony, now stating he doesn't dispute US military aid was linked to #Ukraine announcing Biden investigations, but that he didn’t know it at the time and it only became clear to him after his earlier closed-door deposition.
Amb. Volker testifies that he told RudyGiuliani that the allegations against @JoeBiden "are self-serving and not credible."

In his opening statement, @RepAdamSchiff lays out the stakes of Trump's extortion scheme: a U.S. ally at war with Russia, and a U.S. president who extorted that ally for personal political gain.
@RepAdamSchiff .@RepAdamSchiff: "The facts in the present inquiry are not seriously contested:" Trump deputized Rudy Giuliani, Gordon Sondland, and others to demand political favors from the Ukrainian government in exchange for military aid and a White House meeting.

So, I ran across a retweet of the below tweet and it immediately raised flags. Puffing up a witness has a reason, so decided to go look for the documentation behind it, since it had a direct quote. Didn't take long - few minutes and NPR coughed it up (will link at the end)./1
About puffing someone up - the reason is to try to give the person credibility, their views more weight than they should be given, and to set them above someone they are in disagreement with. In this case, also to elicit support due to his medal./2
In the case of the tweet, it is immediately followed by the statement "speaking out against the command-in-chief." (you're suppose to gasp here I think)

Then "the reason" is given - people kept telling him he needed to speak up (be sure to ignore other possible reasons)./3
