Democrats' key witness testifies in impeachment probe. More here:

- A senior U.S. diplomat told lawmakers on Saturday he did not know whether President Donald Trump had withheld aid for Ukraine to force an investigation of a political rival, two sources said, even as Democrats said he corroborated evidence gathered in their impeachment probe.

At the end of Saturday’s session, Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff told reporters lawmakers were making “rapid progress” in the impeachment inquiry. He declined to say when the panels might advance to the next phase of hearings open to the public. Republican Representative Mark Meadows, speaking to reporters as a long day of testimony was winding down, said it “was a good day for the president” and described Reeker as “a top level official not giving any potential incriminating evidence.”

At the heart of the inquiry is a July 25 phone call in which Trump asked Zelenskiy to investigate the Bidens and a claim - debunked as a conspiracy theory - that a Democratic National Committee computer server was in Ukraine.

I would end this Unconstitutional Impeachment Inquiry today if I were President, as he is not reading the political harm it is doing to him. The CIC is putting all his faith in Bill Barr, with no contingency plan at all? He has enough already to pull Shifty Schiffs Clearances.?

Kill him

SimonJester007 How about we change that headline to “Country’s Key Witness”? Investigation for the people, not political. The Democrats are investigating on behalf of the people.

This will be an interesting impeachment process. Wonder how GOP will act once testimony is made in public. Never mind. I know the answer to that, or at least how the GOP in Congress will act. Perhaps it will move the needle some among GOP rank and file.

A senior U.S. diplomat told lawmakers on Saturday he did not know whether President Donald Trump had withheld aid for Ukraine His job depends on him denying or else he'd be sacked on the spot

The Mrs. Butterswoth, Mr. Clean, and the Marlboro Man could testify in the Sham process, and it wouldn't make a damn to anyone. The DoNothingDemocrats have long used their political capital and continue to bury themselves.

Thought they all were 'key witnesses'.🙄

Democrats: the al-Baghdadis of American politics.

“HE WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED” from the CIA says “ORANGE MAN BAD!” All else was redacted! Impeach the peach!

Fmr. Trump Chief of Staff John Kelly says he warned Trump about impeachmentFormer White House Chief of Staff John Kelly says he told President Trump last year, 'Don't hire a Yes Man... because if you do, I believe you'll be impeached.'

Empty barrel. Yeah, thats it.
