"They were all in the loop." Gordon Sondolan.

Sondolan told the truth when he spoke those words. Donald Trump has drained the swamp of good people who were dedicated to their country and dedicated to the Constitution. He replaced those people with money grubbing, power hungry criminals.

How does Trump get people to join his criminal enterprise? Yes, money, but also a get out of jail free card, Bill Barr.

Next to Trump Bill Barr is the most dangerous man to destroy our democracy, and he's a close second.

What can we do? When you turn over that rock or shine that light, the cockroaches run. Even if we aren't fast enough to step on them, we can certainly make them run. Keep the pressure on Trump, Pence, Barr, Mulvaney, McConnell, all of the cockroaches. Speaker Pelosi has done a brilliant job, but she needs help. Every Democratic Congressperson needs to get in front of a camera, get in front of a microphone and shine a spotlight on those cockroaches. They need to do what Congressman Lieu did, he shined a spot light on Russian sympathizer Devin Nunes. Make them run.

During his testimony, I kept getting the feeling that there were major details that he was leaving out but kept going up to the line and alluding to with statements like "Everyone was in the loop". He wasn't willing to drop the bomb completely, but did enough to try to save his ass...I suppose we're getting a clearer picture now.

That response was repeated by one of the GOPers or their council and it just rubbed me wrong.

So, did he talk to someone who was on a plane? Say...airforce one?

I didnt completely trust Volker or Morrison's testimony either.
