For a couple of weeks the GOP has been harping on the “secret” testimony taken in the SCIF…..they went forward to the nearest camera and demanded the Dems give the testimony to the public (con job for they, the GOP, does NOT want the public to read these testimonies)…..well the Dems have released two of the evidence given by a couple of witnesses….

The first transcripts from closed-door testimony in the impeachment inquiry have been released. House investigators on Monday released the testimony of Marie Yovanovitch, the former ambassador to Ukraine, and of Michael McKinley, a former State Department adviser. Republicans have been demanding the move, notes the AP, saying that Democrats have been releasing skewed snippets of testimony so far.

• Read Yovanovitch’s testimony in full here. (Initial news coverage of her testimony is here.)
• Read McKinley’s testimony in full here.
• More to come: The testimony of two big names will be released Tuesday, reports the Washington Post: Gordon Sondland, US ambassador to the European Union, and Kurt Volker, former special envoy to Ukraine.
• New details: Outlets were still assessing the transcripts, but one item being reported is that Yovanovitch spoke about how Ukrainian officials warned her that Rudy Giuliani and other allies of President Trump were “looking to hurt” her. She also said Sondland advised her to tweet praise of Trump in order to save her job, reports NBC News. Yovanovitch was eventually removed from her post.

There are links to the two released transcripts above….hopefully all will read before they try to comment.

Please do not let the media tell you what the process is about…..read the questions and answers for yourself…..it will be interesting to see how many Trumpers actually read the transcripts or will they just follow the leader into that dead end street?

BTW, these are transcripts not memos like the phone call release by the White House.

I wish Americans would keep in mind that these people that the president attacks and insults have been loyal employees of the American people for decades….so it is a disingenuous slug that would try and paint these people as “enemies”….whether that person is in the White House or Congress or in the media.  It is a shame that these people cannot sue the bastards for slander or libel or something….lies are lies and saying the contrary does make them anything but lies.

As the transcripts are released then I shall post for those interested enough to see what is being said.
