Ambassador Volker already confirmed what the President has repeatedly said: there was no quid pro quo. (3/3)

In case you were unaware, Ambassador Sondland had flown back from Brussels to testify today to the House committees involved in the President Trump impeachment inquiry. Why would the State Department allow him to come all the way back if they weren’t going to allow him to testify? According to House GOP members who spoke to the press today, the State Department was anticipating Democrats to release the full testimony of former U.S. Ambassador to NATO, Kurt Volker.

Volker’s testimony was last week, and the GOP Representatives highlighted that there was no quid pro quo in the ongoing Ukraine impeachment controversy. They also stated if the full transcripts were released the impeachment narrative would be lost. Instead of releasing the full transcripts, Chairmain Schiff is only allowing parts of testimony as they fit the Democrat narrative for impeachment.

The House GOP members talked to reporters this morning after learning Amb. Sondland would not be testifying. You can watch the full video below. In this video, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R)  describes the whole thing as “kangaroo court, and Chairman Schiff is acting like a malicious Captain Kangaroo”.

Rep. Shiff can’t seem to keep his stories (or lies) straight, as pointed out in a tweet by political social media Icon Ryan Fournier:

“Hey, Adam Schiff…

How can an anonymous whistle-blower be receiving death threats if they are anonymous?

You are so used to lying you don’t even know what comes out of your mouth anymore.”
