The likelihood of the Senate voting to call more witnesses in the impeachment trial appeared to mount as some Republican senators said new allegations about Trump’s motivation for freezing aid to Ukraine bolstered the case for further testimony https://t.co/LgxLUifbMK

News from @lindsaywise: At a closed-door GOP lunch before today's trial session, Mitt Romney spoke forcefully about the need to have Bolton testify before the Senate. After the lunch, Loeffler took to Twitter to attack Romney by name. https://t.co/Py9RdddFAI

Confirming @costareports: Pat Toomey indicated to colleagues at the GOP lunch today that he was open to a one-for-one witness deal of some sort.

Romney also made a strong argument for voting yes on witnesses.https://t.co/dTdbOyOpXm

Trump is arguing Hunter Biden’s Burisma work warranted a criminal investigation. Which means all the deals, trademarks & loans Ivanka, the Kushners, Don jr & Eric have received during his presidency should get the same.

Hunter Biden is like a lot of unimpressive people in public life, including the Trumps—trading on his name for power. But if Trump believed an illegality occurred, then why didn’t the administration open a proper DoJ investigation instead of pushing Ukraine for an announcement?

President Trump falsely tweeted this morning that House Democrats didn't seek John Bolton's testimony. They did, in October, but Bolton's lawyers said he wouldn't appear voluntarily. https://t.co/41LeuMohNC

Bolton’s Chief of Staff at the NSC proposes a novel solution: Bolton should withdraw his manuscript — at least until after the election. Lol.

This perfectly captures just how rattled Trump’s defenders have become in light of the NYT scoop. https://t.co/1jy4bhkYaC

It’s mind blowing the White House had a copy of the Bolton book and nobody thought to call Mitch McConnell about it

The man who writes here that his guess is that, “Trump is a Russian agent,” is not just some layman, but a former CIA Station Chief in Moscow, who also helped nab treasonous CIA officer/KGB double agent, Aldrich Ames.

"Trump views the truth as treason and truth-tellers as traitors. As Edward Gibbon put it in The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, 'Treason against such a prince might easily be considered as patriotism to the state.'" https://t.co/TG2mxG4CcY

Speaking of nepotism, let's recall how Trump overrode career officials to give Jared a security clearance despite concerns about "foreign influence, private business interests and personal conduct." It's another investigation that the WH has stonewalled https://t.co/ETN8zs9xNw
