Rep. Chris Stewart Argues New Claim

In a CNN interview with Wolf Blitzer tonight I heard Stewart make a claim I’ve never heard before in defense of the President. According to Stewart we were “required to hold up the aid because we didn’t know anything about the new Ukrainian president.” Of course Blitzer barely pushed back on this nonsense but we’ll see if we start hearing this more going forward as the evidence continues to mount.

Either on Morning Joe Scum or GMA. I don't believe it's gaining traction.

And it still doesn't excuse Trump's attempted extortion.
