But considering Greg and Rich show the same level of attentiveness to the Democrat's presentation as did those Republican senators that either were playing crossword puzzles or away from their desks, it's not surprising that whatever Trump's lawyer said today was taken as an "epic takedown." Pardon me while I puke..,.
Per Cooper's testimony they heard nothing prior to the 25th and that all they received on the 25th was simply an inquiry asking for the status of the aid which seems rather benign though Schiff and company would love to make it seem like a smoking gun lol.
Didnt find anything about the NYT piece you mention nor the supposed documents you mention.
The GAO started earning a reputation as partisan organization in 2004 and it has been shown that Trump violated no legal rules since they offered the opinion of it being illegal to withhold the funds.
I know you hate it Rod but grasping at straws isnt going to help
