💣It’sGoTime2💣

The Madrid meeting was a “`direct followup'” to the July 25 Trump-Zelenskyy phone call and specifically to their discussion of the cases the U.S. president raised in that conversation, according to the whistleblower’s complaint.
💣It’sGoTime3💣

From Madrid, Giuliani tweets his allegations against the Bidens on Aug. 3.

Fiona Hill urged lawmakers not to promote “politically driven falsehoods” that cast doubt on Russia’s interference in the 2016 U.S. election.

Swiping at Trump, Hill will urge Republicans to abandon ‘fictional’ claim that Ukraine interfered in the 2016 election.
💣It’sGoTime5💣

7/25 Zelensky said Trump had “three times” raised “some very sensitive issues,” & that he would have to follow up on those issues when he and Trump met “in person,” Holmes testified & he interpreted the "very sensitive issues" as the Biden-Burisma investigation.

Hill names former Nunes aide Kash Patel as the person she believes was the NSC official she was told Trump wanted to speak w/ about Ukraine even though Patel was not involved in UKR policy.

Hill noted the RU annexation of Crimea from Ukraine in 2014
& Russia's "acts of aggression" in E UKR since then. "There is a great deal of hostility & malign intent towards UKR, & it suits the Kremlin if we view UKR as a perpetrator of malign acts against us."
💣It’sGoTime9💣

Asked by Schiff if the Russians were now seeking to place the blame on Ukraine, Hill said, "That's absolutely the case ....The Russians like to put a lot of blame on U.S. allies for incidents that they have perpetrated .... This falls into a long pattern...
💣It’sGoTime10💣

Of deflection and of the RU gov’t trying to pin the blame on someone else," she said. "As my colleague Mr. Holmes here has laid out, the Russians have a particular vested interest in putting Ukraine and Ukrainians & Ukrainian leaders in a very bad light. "
💣It’sGoTime11💣

Holmes says he was ‘shocked’ when the OMB announced a hold on security assistance for UKR—as ordered by Trump.

Cooper testified that she viewed the military aid for UKR as critically important & that she had no idea why it was held up, despite Congress authorizing the money and the DOD having assured that Ukraine had met the qualifications for receiving it in May
💣It’sGoTime15💣

On 7/25/19 the Ukrainians reach out to the Pentagon, to Cooper & her staff, to get more info about why they hadn’t received the aid that same day as the Trump/Zelensky call.

Trump himself has acknowledged: OMB officials said Trump ordered the hold on the aid.
💣It’sGoTime16💣

Schiff: Would you agree that it would be very unusual to place a hold on military aid to leverage a foreign country to get them to investigate a political opponent?

Hale: Yes.

Schiff: And I take it you would agree that that would be completely inappropriate.
💣It’sGoTime17💣

Hale: That would be inconsistent with the conduct of our foreign policy in general.

Schiff: & it’d be wrong, wouldn’t it?

Hale: It’s certainly not what I would do.

“I believe that Y should have been able to stay at post & continue to do the outstanding work”
💣It’sGoTime18💣

Rep. Denny Heck (D-Wash.) cut him off, by asking directly: Would Hale agree “that what happened to her was wrong?”

Hale: “Yes, sir.”

Finally, Hale confirmed what Trump himself has acknowledged: OMB officials said Trump ordered the hold on the aid.
💣It’sGoTime19💣

“I refuse to be part of an effort to legitimize an alternate narrative that the Ukrainian gov is a US adversary, and that Ukraine — not RU — attacked us in '16...These fictions are harmful even if they are deployed for purely domestic political purposes.”
💣It’sGoTime20💣

Sondland testified that there were conditions for Ukraine’s president to get a meeting and a phone call with Trump:

They had to announce investigations into Democrats. He also knocked down a number of Republicans’ defenses for the president.
