It is hearsay. But that doesn't mean it's not credible. Nor inadmissible. There is no prohibition against hearsay testimony in the inquiry that I'm aware of, and it would be non-sensical to exclude it from an investigation. That's where leads come from. Obviously, it holds little value without corroboration from the staffer and/or Sondland. Technically Trump but... Yeah don't expect to hear him testify or do so truthfully if he did. Anyway, hearsay is absolutely admissible for federal grand jury testimony. I would expect it to be excluded from a Senate trial.

Anyway, I wish there were a recourse against overt lies, for example the assertion that Schiff knows and met with the whistleblower. The reality of course being that one of his staffers advised him on filing a whistleblower complaint after his criminal referral to the CIA lawyer was killed by Barr. I've seen it crafted on the radio to the extent that Schiff and his lawyers wrote the report itself, and because the report was filed a month after the call, the concern was therefore manufactured as a means of outing Trump. Nevermind the impetus for bringing the information to Congress was a person implicated in the report itself as being involved getting to decide that the issue was non-criminal.
 
Watching Nunesy is like watching monkeys at the zoo. I was waiting for him to jump on the counter, shit in his hand and fling it at the camera. At least he would have been more funny than stupid.

I want Schiff to look over at him and go..

Looks like not catering to Trumps conspiracy theories, is not being patriotic by the questions Pub staff is asking.
 
Taylor is handling this fine. I applaud his poise. Most people would just respond "What the fuck are you trying to ask?"
 
Taylor is at a loss to answer their stupid conspiracy theories. Gee, I wonder why, since it has no basis in fact.
 
Just a routine phone call according to Nunes.

Since I can't watch, is it something like this?

lol, imagine any one of these pubs attempting to sit for 16 hours in front of a committee children, forced to answer the exact same nonsense questions that they asked her. They would wet themselves after 20 minutes, or just storm out, taking their wubby with them.
 
Finally, asking questions about the current facts. Asking about what they considered the irregular channel to be. So basically, burned the first half 80% of their time on pure BS.

Nunes - "First the Dems accused Trump of being a Russian agent, then they pivoted and accuse him of holding up military aid in Ukraine"

Someone needs to explain to Nunes that the military aid that was being held up was to be used against Russia, so its all the same thing.

Actually... He knows. Truth is not what he's aiming for.

Prediction. Republicans will start tossing around the whistleblower's name to disrupt the hearings. I could see them deliberately trying to disrupt proceedings outright by interrupting, speaking out of turn, basically making it impossible for Schiff to do his job. I wouldn't have thought this a few months ago, but the stunt they pulled by barging into the SCIF.
 
The GOP counsel looks like he doesn't even want to be asking these questions. And at this moment he's providing testimony himself.
