    Cow Poke for POTUS!
    And if I were king...
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          • David Axelrod appears to be sending up the white flag saying that based on Sondland's testimony, it is unlikely that "any R will break rank on impeachment".

                Well, based on Hurd's questioning, not Sondland's testimony per se.

                    My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

                    If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

                    This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

                      What I took from Axrlrod's comment is that he doesn't see Sondland's testimony moving the needle towards impeachment. And why would it? His testimony was very good for Trump.

                        I did a quick scan through comments from his followers. That's not what I'm seeing at all.

                          And when asked who "everyone" was, Sondland's response was essentially a shrug and "You know, everyone."

                          Okay, so "everyone" was in the loop, but when given a list of specific names of people directly above him in the chain of command, Sondland testified that none of them told him that the release of aid was tied to Ukraine agreeing to undertake investigations.

                            A POTUS should be held to a much higher standard than no criminal conduct was proven. Look at what just happened to Prince Andrew - he misjudged an interview.

                            • If you're curious whether or not Sondland's testimony was good for the impeachment narrative, here's a hint: liberals are protesting outside of Sondland's hotels and threatening his family.

                                If 'everyone' was in the loop, what's the 'we professional diplomats were excluded' beef?
