Speaking of kind and peaceful, the BBC stream had no sound between hearings, and I thought I'd muted my speakers. Then it just came back and startled me, which was neither kind nor peaceful.

This is Morrison, right? Goldman's going to ask him why he said Vindman had poor judgment, right? (I mean... maybe he'll say in his opening statement that he never said that, that'd be cool too...)

Am I reading this right: Volker is amending his testimony to try to throw Sondland under the bus?

There was something by one of the Twitter ppl pointing out that Volker probably dabbled in some perjury too. Maybe he’s “correcting the record” or whatever the gently caress they call it when you’re like “oh no I definitely didn’t lie I meant to say this completely different thing”

apparently these two witnesses were requested by republicans, but allowed because democrats think it was, uh, not a super idea for republicans to request them

I assume the big correction will be Sondland who pretty much has to write an entire explanation for all the things he said that turned out to not be true?

To be honest I can't think of anybody whose testimony wouldn't be damaging to Trump.

Edit: interesting observation from twitter:

They're the visual aides for the Republicans that include a tweet that they claim is about a democratic coup against Trump (it was actually about Sally Yates being fired, also why would the Democrats announce a coup in public via a tweet?), a number of days since Schiff allegedly learned who the whistleblower is but wont' have them testify (because the GOP keep trying to out the whistleblower), and something else I don't recall or give a gently caress about.

that is the typical practice (and was done by republicans as well)

they don't HAVE to be but if you're at all concerned about people lying to you or coordinating testimony it is very wise
