I'm surprised if he testifies but more so if he lies. He'd be seeing himself up for real problems.

reporting by a couple of Newsies. Maddow is burning these suckers to the ground.

And we know Sondland will only puke the standard Rethug garbage but he will be under Oath and that could cost him bigglee.

The other my guess is,there was a top level fellow at State who resigned this evening,maybe another I got a story to tell you think.

Trump will never allow anyone he can control to testify honestly. Never.
