There will be many more to come.
Trump called Mattis in the summer of 2018 and told him to "screw Amazon" out of a $10Bn cloud contract. This action, by itself, is impeachable.
Guiliani is in hiding and calling anyone he can begging for cash to pay for his defense lawyers. Trump's utterly unsound judgment is clearly on display by the fact that he would use this walking talking moronic disaster on two feet for anything at all. Much less something as illegal and immoral and unethical as shaking-down foreign leaders for political dirt on his domestic opponents.
Government officials past and present are defying the White House's attempts to block their cooperation with the impeachment inquiry, and so far, their evidence backs up the whistle-blower complaint.
Bolton will be testifying to the impeachment inquiry. I'm sure the "drug deal" that Giuliani and Mulvaney were cooking up will be a prime topic of discussion.
Tim Morrison, an NSC official who is a witness to one of the most explosive pieces of evidence, will be testifying soon.
Federal Judge Howell granted the impeachment inquiry access to the redacted parts of Mueller's grand jury files. There is no doubt impeachable offenses contained in there too.
The impeachment inquiry is begin conducted using guidelines that were put into place by a Republican Congress when John Boehner was the speaker. There are 31 Republicans who can participate in the witness depositions. Of the cadre of clowns, Matt Gaetz marched into the SCIF last week, 13 of them can join the testimonies anytime they like. No one with a shred of credibility believes the inquiry is a star-chamber.
Trump truly believes that he did nothing wrong and that he is the impeachment team. He is such a narcissistic sociopath he's not even capable of realizing that he has committed wrongdoing and that he's in serious jeopardy. He is so dumb that he thinks the best strategy is to continue his deep-state nonsense and insist that Barack Obama, the most popular figure in American politics, directed a government-wide scheme to sabotage his Presidency. This continued war on every branch of the government that does not shower him in nauseating obsequious praise is only going to encourage more career diplomats to come forward with what they know.
This sh!t-sh-w of a dumpster fire is what you guys think is winning?
I'm just counting down the days until the articles of impeachment arrive. I'm figuring on or around Thanksgiving. Since the Republicans can't successfully attack the material substance of the inquiry, they've taken to attacking the process itself but they lost that one yesterday when a federal judge ruled it's perfectly legal.
In other developments, Bolton may agree to a deposition and the feds blew the door off a safe belonging to one of Rudy's associates. It may have been Igor's or perhaps the other guy. Igor has reportedly retained Paul Manafort's lawyer. Oh, well, that's his choice...
