13356806, If you wake up in the morning, and there's snow on the ground

But you didn't stay awake all night to see it
Did it snow?
The defense that someone literally didn't say...this is a bribe...this is extortion...do x if you want y...
Is not actually a legal defense
Circumstantial evidence can be weighed the same as physical evidence
That's literally the point for the hearings...to confirm from multiple parties that that was the understanding
Sondland did testify...I believe after 9.5...that he and Ukraine were fully aware that the release of aid was tied to announcing the investigations
Cooper also shot a hole in the defense...which, ironically, also isn't a legal defense...that Ukraine didn't know there was a hold on the aid
The defense that no one explicitly said those words...is not a legal defense.
The defense that Ukraine didn't know about the hold...is not a legal defense.
...and of course, we know the defense that the investigations were legitimately about Ukraine corruption...is also not true.
The Rs sound more and more idiotic as the days pass, as does anyone still buying the BS
You're never going to get 'the base' to turn
should be painfully evident, from the insurmountable facts presented, that that 'base' will hold on to any thread which could save their hero
The BIGGER takeaway from Sondland's testimony is the...everyone was in on it
Which leads to the question, does the impeachment testimony grow tentacles, and pull in everyone involved
Top to bottom, they were all complicit
Trumpster
Pence
Pompeo
Mulvaney
Perry
Sondland
Volker
Morrison
Ghouliani
= all knew, all complicit, all were helping facilitate.
Leavenworth is going to need a Trumpster wing.
