Wow — staunch Trump defender Sen. Johnson now says SONDLAND told him there was a Ukraine quid pro quo, right before Sondland denied it unconvincingly in his texts with Taylor. https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-administration-used-potential-meeting-to-pressure-ukraine-on-biden-texts-indicate-11570205661?redirect=amp#click=https://t.co/GPLBKsc9rm …

NEWS: GOP Sen. Ron Johnson tells WSJ that the U.S. ambassador to the EU told him in August that the status of aid to Ukraine was tied to Trump’s interest in having Kiev investigate certain matters. Johnson confronted Trump, who denied it. w/@siobhanehughes https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-administration-used-potential-meeting-to-pressure-ukraine-on-biden-texts-indicate-11570205661 …

6. WOW!!!!

A confession then backtracking. Seems as if these R's are getting nervous.


From Wikipedia:

Gordon D. Sondland is the United States Ambassador to the European Union. He is also the founder and chairman of Provenance Hotels, co-founder of the merchant bank Aspen Capital. He was a major donor to Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.

He didn't want to leave a trail of crumbs behind...traitors all of them.
