(CNN)The top US diplomat in Ukraine, Bill Taylor, testified Tuesday that he had been told President Donald Trump would withhold military aid to the country until it publicly declared investigations would be launched that could help his reelection chances - including into former Vice President Joe Biden, according to a copy of Taylor's opening statement obtained by CNN.

Taylor said he was told that "everything" Ukraine wanted - from a one-on-one meeting between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to hundreds of millions in security aid - was dependent on publicly announcing an investigation that included Burisma, the company that hired Biden's son Hunter, and Ukraine's alleged involvement in the 2016 election.

And then there is this: Former Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen on Tuesday said she left office because "saying no" and refusing to do things that others in the administration wanted was "not going to be enough."

Impeach Trump

and the administration official who wrote this "We believe our first duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic," the official said in the op-ed. The op-ed took particular aim at the president's behavior, claiming he was "erratic" and had a fundamental "amorality" that plagued his administration. "Anyone who works with him knows he is not moored to any discernible first principles that guide his decision making" is now release a book titled Warning.

Yes. Like Stephen Colbert said: now we have absolute proof of everything trump already admitted to. It's like pointing a telescope at the sun at this point.

I guess the House will impeach, the Senate will quash, and we'll go into the election season with little changed. His base is his base, those folks will go down with the ship.

Probably all comes down to turnout. I'll stick with Bernie, but the Dems will probably run a mushy centrist and trump will lose the vote but win the EC.

The impeachment is important only because it's the right thing to do under the Constitution, and historians will lay the blame where it belongs for the trump disaster.

FishGary does consistently side with the enemies of America.

Never seen anyone not "get it" like that dotard. But those are the people that Trump and co exploit to get in power. They need imbeciles en masse for the con to work.

He heard tell, huh? Well, I went and read the transcript of the phone call and there was no such thing. What is amazing here is that you goobers think that you will get people to believe someone saying, "someone told me," over the actual transcript. I don't even think progs are that stupid. And if progs won't buy it, no one will.

And this gem here: White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham added, "I worked with John Kelly, and he was totally unequipped to handle the genius of our great President." LOL God Bless Stephanie's little heart...what a suck up.
