On the Sondland testimony, Ari Melber says: “When the evidence helps you, you try to get it in. When the evidence hurts you, you try to get it out. They’re trying to get the evidence out. And that’s part of what Sondland was calling them out on. ” Aired on 11/20/19.

Ari Melber: Republicans Trying To Get The Evidence Out | MSNBC
Nope. Trump isn’t skeptical about Ukraine. It’s the republicans are too dumb to see trump’s real intentions.
Presumptions…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jO4DSnUYMI
olobar5 So what assumptions can be made about Trump and the Republicans doing everything possible to block both the Mueller probe and the investigation into Trump and Ukraine?
FINALLY Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney makes the connection / asks the perfect question of Ambassador Gordon Sondland for Trump’s impeachment inquiry:
Q: “And then there were conditions…we… this is not controversial at this point I believe sir, there were conditions that the President wanted investigations, right?”
A: “Right”
Q: “And you thought they were of Burisma and the 2016 elections?”
A: “Correct.”
Q: “And we now know that Burisma means Bidens, right?”
A: “Today we do.”
Q: “And we can probably from today until the end of time, set aside any confusion… that when somebody is asking for an investigation of Burisma over the summer, what they really meant was Bidens… right?”
A: “With 20/20 hindsight, Yes.”
Q: “Right. With hindsight.”

You go Patrick! Hammer that point home!
Ari has been all over this from the beginning. He’s a total professional. Bravo, Sir. 👏
You are going to be yet again stunned and shocked like when hillary lost…you believe the propaganda but not reality.
@Robert hinton jr OK jr
@Greg Coleman he is right you know. Opinion and hearsay is NOT FACT and NON-FACTS ARE NOT EVIDENCE.
@Anonymous Person So by your warped logic, Jr’s opinion is not fact and yet he’s right?!? Wooo… they’re right when they say never get into an argument with a stupid person as they have nothing to lose.
Hay Nunes, quid pro quo POTUS give up documentation and honor subpoenas and maybe you could get some of your witnesses in there. Bring the tax returns too. You first!
I love to watch the blank stare, monotone, dribble from Nunes when he reads off clearly prepared statements after every single Republican talking point was blown out of the water by testimony 10 minutes before.
I just feel sorry for mad-dog Jordan. It’s like seeing a dog with rabies. It’s not his fault he has rabies but you have to put him down.
You meant _drivel_
As for Jordan, I prefer Dr. Pedo’s Enabler
Ya, Schiff/Pelosi/Schumer/Russia hoax / Collusion hoax / Cavanaugh hoax / Racism hoax / Stormy hoax / No Border crisis hoax / Mueller Report hoax / Obstruction hoax / and now the Ukraine hoax. All by the Dems. Nobody else.
“THAT LOOKED GUILTY” – maybe because tRump and his swamp of corrupt Republicans ARE GUILTY !
SPRINDYS well I’m certainly glad to hear your expert opinion, be sure and leave us all your tips
Ya, Schiff/Pelosi/Schumer/Russia hoax / Collusion hoax / Cavanaugh hoax / Racism hoax / Stormy hoax / No Border crisis hoax / Mueller Report hoax / Obstruction hoax / Jesse Smollett hoax, and now the Ukraine hoax. All by the Dems. Nobody else. We independents (decide elections) see right through you.
Looks guilty because he IS guilty – Trump and all his mob.
@olobar5 So the alternative you are proposing is that everyone out there, including men and women that have dedicated their lives to service of this country, is a liar, except for Trump, and when there is evidence on the table (corroborated testimony and facts that back it up) it is “the Democrats” and “Schiff” who are to blame? Do you even realize that the GOP congressional leaders have been arguing that “we are trying to fight corrupt against [insert any democrat you don’t like] and so here is [narrative based on speculation] that warrants investigation in order to determine if there is evidence of corruption….in defense of Trump FOR WHICH there is already evidence of criminal behavior and corruption sitting right there…..readily and publicly available……

and we are the ones being influenced…..sure. good luck with that
@olobar5 There is plenty of evidence that Trump was dirty though.
@Justin Skidmore Ya, Schiff/Pelosi/Schumer/Russia hoax / Collusion hoax / Cavanaugh hoax / Racism hoax / Stormy hoax / No Border crisis hoax / Mueller Report hoax / Obstruction hoax / and now the Ukraine hoax. All by the Dems. Nobody else.

@Gaye Englund Small stuff that does not bother normal people. Normal people like Independents (we decide elections) and Republicans (don’t decide) are ok with Trump. The monkey in the room is the Democrat (don’t decide) and that’s very lopsided if you ask me. It’s all a game.
It was obvious they were trying to lead the witness right out of the testimony he had just given.
and guess what? They did, not a single witness had FACTS, just hearsay and opinions.
Anonymous Person 😂
Even the word “Guilty” is distancing itself from Trump today😏
@Tom Waddle Where are all your witnesses for Hillary?
@Leo s Still it is Samaritan like to offer a healthy diet
@Seminole Nation AS I have stated before – you can surmise a crime from circumstantial evidence without seeing it
@Gaye Englund well, the last two impeachments were clear crimes. Just like Democrats regret changing the 60 vote rule for nominations, they will regret impeachment standards they have set today…..one day in the future
@Seminole Nation Well they shouldn’t regret these unless they too have a corrupt president they are trying to defend.
SOME THING’s THE RIGHT WING NEAR NAZI’s DO THE BEST MISDIRECT REDIRECT DEFLECT DEFLECT DEFLECT! LIE CHEAT AND STEAL! THAT’s WHY THEY WON’T LET THE LEFT SECURE OUR VOTING SYSTEM SO THEY CAN STEAL THE NEXT ELECTION!!!
you’re saying because the rights skewed way of thinking is different from your skewed way of thinking that makes them near Nazis!???! Wow..words
Why you yelling?
ALL DEMOCRAT’s NEED TO GET OUT AND VOTE! IF YOU DON’T WANT TO DO IT FOR YOURSELF DO IT FOR THOSE WHO WILL HAVE THEIR VOTES STOLEN BY THE NEAR NAZI’s OF THE G.O.P. AGAIN LIKE THEY DID IN 2016!!!
Republicans haven’t been able to offer up a SINGLE witness or a SINGLE fact that can defend Donald Trump. Not a one.
@Seminole Nation they didnt even have to do an investigation, they had to say they were going to do one. It didn’t happen because trump and co got busted by the whistleblower. Thats when trump cooked up the “i want nothing” bs.
I’d like to remind you that Republicans have been denied the ability to bring witnesses of their choice. I’m surprised you aren’t aware of that.
@Samuel Ross I’d like to remind you that the whitehouse are blocking witnesses who could put an end to this matter.
If Trump is innocent he wouldn’t be blocking them.
@Samuel Ross The republicans called volker and morrison.
Our good friends at fox and friends sometimes struggle with the truth….hope they can shake it off
It’s hard to look innocent when all the evidence points to you.👆🏾☝🏽
Rep Maloney layed it all out despite Sondland being evasive. Sondland confirmed President Trump withheld aid and a presidential meeting unless there was an investigation into the Bidens. Otherwise known as bribery. Impeach and remove.
Presumptions, assumptions, and wishful thinking don’t add up to facts, folks. Everyone needs to cool their jets. Way too much frothing at the mouth around here over nothing at all.
Pro-democracy part of Ukraine was on Hillary’s side. Pro-Russian part of Ukraine was on Trump’s side.
Hey Nunes, subpoena your boys Trumputin, Half Pence, Perry, Mulvaney, Pompeo, Rudy Colludy.
They should actually send an FBI raid to get those pieces of evidence.
I’d like to remind you that Republicans have been denied the ability to bring witnesses of their choice. I’m surprised you aren’t aware of that.
