Top Diplomat To Ukraine Provides ‘Disturbing’ Account In House Impeachment Probe

Bill Taylor, the acting U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, answered questions in a closed-door deposition with House lawmakers on Tuesday.
Lisa Mascaro, Mary Clare Jalonick and Laurie Kellman
In July, Trump would have his now-famous phone conversation with President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in which he pressed the new Ukrainian president to launch the investigations. Trump at the time had quietly put a hold on nearly $400 million in military aid that Ukraine was counting on in its fight against Russian-backed separatists.
In the follow-up to the call, Taylor exchanged texts with two of Trump’s point men on Ukraine as they were trying to get Zelenskiy to commit to the investigations before setting a date for a coveted White House visit.
In a text message to Sondland on Sept. 1, Taylor bluntly questioned Trump’s motives: “Are we now saying that security assistance and WH meeting are conditioned on investigations?” Sondland, U.S. ambassador to the European Union, told him to call on the phone.
In texts a week later to Sondland and special envoy Volker, Taylor expressed increased concern, calling it “crazy to withhold security assistance for help with a political campaign.” In a reply several hours later, Sondland defended Trump’s intentions and suggested they stop the back-and-forth by text.
Taylor had also texted that not giving the military aid to Ukraine would be his “nightmare” scenario because it would send the wrong message to both Kyiv and Moscow: “The Russians love it. (And I quit).”
U.S. diplomats based at the Kyiv embassy have refused to speak with journalists, reflecting the sensitivity of the impeachment inquiry. The embassy press office did not respond to a request for comment on Monday.

8:07 AM 9/5/2020 - Crossfire Hurricane Investigation: It was just a GAS! “And on top of it all, at the pinnacle of this heap of perfidy and treachery, sat a president who had lied to the public, cozied up to Russia, and, once he became aware of them, attempted to block our investigation at every turn,” Mr. Strzok writes.  M.N.: It is worthwhile to mention that the situation described above was a culmination of the FBI's abject failures, incompetence, subversion  of many, invisible, and opaque types (mostly by Germans and Russians), that inevitably, logically, and tragically led to this situation, for more than half a century, before and after WW2.  Obama, Comey, McCabe and  spawned by them  multitude of the second rate characters with the second rate brains, thinking, ability for analysis and qualifications, such as Strzok (promptly promoted after some mysteriously lucky finding related to 9/11 investigation), delivered the final stab in the FBI's back, deserved and
