SONDLAND: I was just following orders

Shorter Sondland: I was pursuing a bribe for the president not out of any personal desire but because I was following orders.

SONDLAND: "Mr. Giuliani’s requests were a quid pro quo for arranging a White House visit for President Zelensky....Mr. Giuliani was expressing the desires of the President of the United States, and we knew that these investigations were important to the President."

He just said he doesn't recall his temper tantrum that three others have testified to. He's thinking he can save his reputation and slide out of legal exposure by coming clean now. I hope he is denied his freedom since he has had to correct his statements more than once. He knows he's in trouble but I think he's making shit up while trying to look like the wonderful guy his narcissism tells him he is.

He's throwing a lot of names out there as red herrings and pointing fingers at some of the perps but not all.
