IMPEACHMENT
Jennifer Williams notes
JENNIFER WILLIAMS' handwritten notes reflect that Zelensky mentioned 'Burisma' on the July 25 call, and she doesn't know why it's not in the White House summary.
Q: So you wouldnโt have written that down if it hadn't come up during the call. Is that right?
WILLIAMS: Correct.— Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) November 16, 2019
testimony Morrison
TIM MORRISON: Trump told Sondland that "President Zelensky must announce the opening of the investigations." Later, Morrison added: "There was no quid pro quo, but President Zelensky had to do it and he should want to do it."
