To clarify what we're seeing in the new Robert Hyde stuff: judiciary.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…

These are attachments that Hyde himself sent Parnas. You can see where they are in the original thread. AFAIK no one has confirmed they're authentic messages.
And meanwhile
I would note that a voicemail confirming that the US ambassador to Ukraine is "in Ukraine" is not exactly a groundbreaking piece of news

This is the *second* notable public comment this week from Trump's former chief of staff on this topic (first is here: bloomberg.com/news/articles/… )
Earlier John Kelly comment for the paywalled:
I mean, you can see why calling witnesses has 70% or so public support if even there are even supporters in the "Donald Trump's former chief of staff" demographic

What's noteworthy isn't really that Lamar admits the evidence shows Trump "did it" — that's like admitting the sky is blue.

The noteworthy part is that so few other Republicans are willing to make that obvious point.
A common position among Democrats in 1999 was that, yes, Clinton did inappropriate things, but it wasn't worth removing him from office.

But because Trump asserts he did nothing wrong, that's the most common GOP position too.
As usual @LPDonovan is worth reading for those who want to understand many Republicans' mentality (or, if you prefer, rationalizations) here.

"The presiding officer declines to read the question as submitted" — Chief Justice John Roberts, to Rand Paul question with alleged whistleblower's name
Quite something that the "libertarian" is spending his time trying to out the whistleblower rather than responding to some remarkable arguments for unrestrained presidential power from Trump's team
McConnell opened proceedings today with something of a preemptive semi-apology for the Rand question we now know was coming up next.

"We've been respectful of the chief justice's unique position in reading our questions," wanted to assure him that consideration would continue

An audio clip of someone saying “it’s confirmed she’s in Ukraine.”

NEW DOCS: House Democrats just released dozens of pages of records from LEV PARNAS, including hand-written notes (on @RitzCarlton Vienna stationary) reading in part:

"* get Zalensky to Announce that the Biden case will Be Investigated." intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
@RitzCarlton Apparent discussion here about representing FIRTASH, including:
▶️“Joe/Victoria” (presumably Joe diGenova & @VicToensing)
▶️“cut deal or get dismissed”
▶️“get rid of Lenny (sic) Davis”

Also references to the oligarch owner of Burisma & the black ledger. intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
@RitzCarlton @VicToensing In newly released texts, LEV PARNAS repeatedly exchanges messages with a "ROBERT F. HYDE" about MARIE YOVANOVITCH.

Hyde repeatedly calls Yovanovitch a "bitch," & seems to suggest that he has her under surveillance at the US Embassy in Kyiv. intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…

This #thread from @K8brannen is _deeply_ alarming. Under 50 U.S.C. § 3033(k)(5)(C), the Acting DNI is _required_ to transmit details on such "urgent complaints" to the congressional intelligence committees w/in 7 days. Acting DNI Maguire hasn't done so, and hasn't explained why.
@K8brannen Schiff: "So far as the Committee is aware, this marks the first time a Director of National Intelligence has ever sought to overrule the IC IG and conceal from Congress a whistleblower complaint—in this case, one the IC IG has already determined to be a credible urgent concern."
@K8brannen "The Committee can only conclude, based on this remarkable confluence of factors, that the serious misconduct at issue involves the President of the United States and/or other senior White House or Administration officials."
