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 wouldn’t have written that down if it hadn't come up during the call. Is that right?
WILLIAMS: Correct.

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."
