CNN's report this week on a July 2019 call in which Giuliani pressured Ukraine's government to announce an investigation into Biden wasn't just bad for Rudy. It also revealed that former Ambassador Kurt Volker made false statements to Congress. motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
In his public 11/19/19 testimony Volker said: "At no time was I aware of or knowingly took part in an effort to urge Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Biden." False. In a July 2019 call Volker took part in, Giuliani pressed a Zelensky aide for a Biden investigation. 
Republicans cited Volker's inaccurate testimony to defend Trump in 2019. Lindsey Graham: “Volker, the special envoy, said there was no quid pro quo...I find the whole process to be a sham and I’m not going to legitimize it.” Jim Jordan made the same claim: foxnews.com/media/rep-jord…
Giuliani clearly pressed Zelenksy's aide Yermak for a quid pro quo in the July 19 call: He said Ukraine announcing a Biden probe would clear up "confusion" and allow better relations with Trump. Volker hid that important information. cnn.com/2021/06/07/pol…
Schiff says in a statement that the new tape reveals Volker's claims "to be a disingenuous revision of history... We warned that more of the truth would come out over time—and it has—validating the need for President Trump’s removal..." motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
Intel Committee official on whether panel will ask DOJ to investigate Volker for perjury: "We will continually review new information that comes to light related to the Ukraine investigation to determine the appropriate response, including whether witnesses were truthful.”
