“Did anyone ever ask you to bribe or extort anyone at any time during your time in the White House?" House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes, R-Calif., asked at one point in Tuesday's afternoon hearing.
Former National Security Council (NSC) aide Tim Morrison: "No."
Former U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine Kurt Volker: “No."
Later, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., hit the same notes in asking the witnesses about Trump's fateful July 25 call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky: "Mr. Morrison, you were on that call, and there was no quid pro quo, correct? No bribery? No extortion?"
"Correct," Morrison replied in response to each question.
The answers underscored a problem facing House Democrats as their impeachment inquiry continued into its second week of public hearings: As more witnesses have testified, more soundbites have emerged that may help Republicans and the Trump campaign argue that the proceedings were politically motivated theater, long in the works and foreshadowed openly by Democrats for months, if not years.
Scotti's desperation is showing. Not one witness has corroborated schitfs lies. The phone transcripts proved there was no quid pro quo. The President of Ukraine says there was no quid pro quo, but somehow scotti keeps hanging on. We get it Scotti, you and your leaders want Trump out even if it is on false pretenses. You want to celebrate the power to take away the voting rights of half the country.
It never was about Ukraine or Russia. That much is clear.
Sondland I ask the president what he wanted from Ukraine
He replied I want nothing I want nothing. No quid pro quo. Tell Zalinsky to do the right thing
Game over
Case closed
Exonerated
Exonerated until next week's fabricated outrage
Well, we've tried on Russia and Ukraine. Perhaps Belarus or Poland next. We can keep moving west through Trumps next presidency and eventually pin something on him in his dealings with the Queen of England that crafty bitch.

More Race footage. “There are no American tanks in Baghdad and Trump has been exonerated!”
