Subj : It's Over To : All From : Gregory Deyss Date : Wed Nov 20 2019 19:05:27 Rep. Michael Turner, R-Ohio, questioned Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, on Nov. 20, in a public hearing as part of the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump. Turner, who called Sondland's testimony "somewhat circular," questioned the ambassador's assertion that "everyone was in the loop." "If Giuliani didn't give you any expressed statement, then it can't be that you believed this [about the connection between investigations and aid] from Giuliani," Turner said. "Is that your testimony today, Amb. Sondland? That you have evidence that Donald Trump tied the investigations to aid because I don't think you're saying that." Sondland said he was "PRESUMING" that is what Trump meant. Sondland testified that there was a "quid pro quo" in which U.S. aid and a White House meeting were contingent on Ukraine agreeing to investigate the 2016 elections and the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, where the son of 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden, Hunter, sat on the board. Sondland also said he understood the prerequisites to be a reflection of Trumps desires and requirements. Bottom Line that he (Amb. Sondland) assumed this to be true, but that stands apart from the truth with what actually was said or has occurred it exists only in his (Amb. Sondland's own mind.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnEWYilDgcg . ______ ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ _[]_³³Äij³ ³ Fidonet ³ ³FSX Net³ ³ Another Message ³ { NET 267 ³ ³1:267/150³ ³21:1/127³ ³ by Gregory ³ / 00ÄÄÄÄ00'-¨€ÀÄ00ÄÄÄ00ÄÙ¨€ÀÄ00ÄÄ00ÄÙ¨€ÀÄÄÄ00ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ00ÄÄÄÙ --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A43 2019/03/03 (Windows/64) * Origin: Capital Station BBS * telnet://csbbs.dyndns.org * (1:267/150) .
