So we put together a list of the 11 people who should be testifying, and what they could testify about: americanprogressaction.org/issues/democra…
So we put together a list of the 11 people who should be testifying, and what they could testify about: americanprogressaction.org/issues/democra…
1. John Bolton, who called the quid pro quo a “drug deal,” told Fiona Hill to alert the NSC’s lawyers, and reportedly tried to talk Trump out of withholding aid. He’s even already said he’ll testify if subpoenaed. nytimes.com/2020/01/06/us/…
2. Mick Mulvaney, who oversaw both parts of the extortion scheme and already admitted to the quid pro quo in a press conference in October. washingtonpost.com/video/politics…
3. Mike Pence, who was allegedly pulled back from Zelensky’s inauguration as part of the pressure campaign and who pressed Zelensky about “corruption” back in September. washingtonpost.com/world/national…
4. Mike Pompeo, who still won’t defend Marie Yovanovitch from the smear campaign intended to clear the way for Trump’s goons to put the screws to Zelensky. apnews.com/c46e171bf48e11…
5. Bill Barr, to whom Trump instructed Zelensky to reach out in that July 25 phone call and is running a parallel scheme to undermine Mueller—and yet who still won’t recuse from the investigation. whitehouse.gov/wp-content/upl…
6. Rick Perry, one of the “Three Amigos” who also just happened to be pressuring Ukraine to put one of his top political donors on the board of a state-run energy company. apnews.com/6d8ae551fb8843…
7. and 8. John Eisenberg and Michael Ellis, the two NSC lawyers who heard the complaints about Trump’s quid pro quo and responded by … doing everything they could to bury the records. apnews.com/6d8ae551fb8843…
9. and 10. Russel Vought and Michael Duffey, OMB officials whose emails show they knew full well that what Trump was doing was illegal but apparently helped him do it anyway. justsecurity.org/67863/exclusiv…
11. Brian McCormack, Perry’s chief of staff who emails show was as “in the loop” as just about anybody. washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/…
The American people want—and deserve—to hear from these witnesses. Anything else is a cover-up by #MoscowMitch and Trump’s other Senate accomplices. americanprogressaction.org/issues/democra…
