Senior White House officials not involved in the underlying scheme knew about Rudy Giuliani’s efforts to pressure the Ukrainian government earlier than previously known, NBC reported.
It’s getting to be more than drip, drip, drip.
Somebody better call a plumber. /s
So Bolton knew in May but fired/resigned in Sept 10th…so what did he do for more than three months with this Quid Pro Quo?
What kind of a national security adviser is he that he could NOT act upon an unlawful act let alone an impeachable act? Was he sweeping it under the rug so he could further his own hawkish agenda until he got fired/resigned?
How wide is the public corruption in the Extortionist-In-Chief’s regime?
No wonder Kupperman wants a court to “order” him to appear. And how will Morrison respond this Thursday?
Maybe Bolton is the whistle blower.
He was still hoping to get his war with Iran.
The news outlet also reported that Hill learned that Sondland was giving Zelensky “unsolicited advice” on who to appoint in his new government. Ukrainian officials, NBC reported, found it “inappropriate.”
So good ol’ Sondland was up to his neck in it… hopefully he confessed all that to Congress, his Frau is not going to like losing the Hotel chain…
Ummm… Okay… So what’s the news? That the NSC had a subscription to the NYT all the way back in May, or what?
From May 9th…
"White House knew back in May that the current season was Spring"
Sondland was giving Zelensky “unsolicited advice” on who to appoint in his new government.
Zelensky: “You ask me to give up my office?”
Sondland: “Yes, your Excellency. Ukraine needs a new leader, a progressive, fearless fighter. A man like Rufus T. Firefly.”
However, the President didn’t take his PDB until July, so it kinda slipped by.
… or Venezuela
So this is now a grand criminal conspiracy that has been in operation for many months?
Bolton was “acting National Security Advisor”? The position doesn’t require Senate approval.
I’ve wondered that about Mulvaney too. What the difference between an Acting Chief of Staff and a regular Chief of Staff?
Rudy’s Ukraine Scheme. Catchy. Maybe shortened to Rudy’s Scheme. But still, it just paints the picture.
Meanwhile, passing thought. Parnas and Fruman. With the frequency of visits and the seeming constant proximity to Rudy, these two are beginning to feel a lot like Minders as well as con men. They definitely have Rudy wrapped around their respective little fingers.
…Hill learned that Sondland was giving Zelensky “unsolicited advice” on who to appoint in his new government…
Hmmm, I wonder where this campaign donor got these names to suggest?
