GOP members continue the hearing by stating that “Biden stopped prosecution [in Ukraine].” The GOP members remark that Biden’s actions should compare to that of President Trumps alleged motions. They continue; “On October 10 Zelensky held a press conference that he did not know about the withhold of aid.” They continue: “Zelensky states no conditions, no threats, not pressure or blackmail”.
The GOP interrogators claim the democrats testimony is “Second hand information” and that the testimony by republicans including direct quotes from Zelensky are 1st hand information. “Do you have evidence Zelensky is lying [in the press conformance]?” nobody speaks. “where is the impeachable offense? Shout it out, anyone?” Taylor stutters and time ticks down, time is suspended so Taylor may answer the question. Taylor then responds: “I”m not here to decide about impeachment.”
