| Tim Morrison, a top White House national security aide, told impeachment investigators that Gordon Sondland — a U.S. ambassador at the center of the Ukraine scandal imperiling Donald Trump’s presidency — claimed to be acting on Trump’s orders, and in fact was regularly in touch with him.
“Every time you went to check to see whether he had, in fact, talked to the president, you found that he had talked to the president?” one lawmaker wondered, according to a transcript of Morrison’s testimony released Saturday.
“Yes,” Morrison replied.
Sondland’s direct access to Trump is a crucial aspect of the House’s impeachment inquiry.
Officially the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, he played an unofficial role in channeling and conveying the president’s demands of Ukrainian leaders.
Sondland has acknowledged informing Ukrainian officials on Sept. 1 that a $400 million package of military aid — frozen abruptly by Trump — would be easier to pry loose if their newly elected president announced an investigation into Burisma, an energy company connected to former vice president Joe Biden’s son.
Democrats launched their impeachment investigation amid mounting evidence that Trump pressured Ukraine to launch the probe into the Bidens and other political adversaries, and might have withheld military aid and a White House visit to bend Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, to his will. |

Morrison Says Sondland claimed he took orders from Trump and was in touch with him .. Not exactly a bombshell

The article fails to mention what "demands" he's referring to .. There's been nothing to indicate any demands were made

There was no such announcement made nor an investigation into Burisma by the Ukranians, yet they received the military aid, which I believe was anti tank javelin missiles ... Obama gave them blankets or some shit ..ha

There's yet been any proof of any pressure applied to Zelensky .. Ukraine received the military aid ..This article is shit ..
BTW, most of us don't view Biden as a threat to win the election, and I highly doubt that Trump views him as such .. If it's a crime to investigate a presidential candidate I suggest the Obama admin, Clinton, the DNC, DOJ, FBI, CIA, are all guilty of investigating Trump while he was a candidate as well as using the FISA court to spy on his campaign
