Charlie, she is underscoring the point that Sondland had been ordered to stray away from national security and foreign policy to undertake a political errand. And as Sondland himself testified, it was at the hands of people at the most senior levels of government, right on up to the president.

This, in a nutshell, is the whole conflict that has been animating these hearings.

Hill is really running over the Republicans now.

With a few exceptions, the audience here in the hearing room is hanging on to Hill’s every word.

I agree Nick. She is nailing it and she is not letting the Republicans interrupt her.

Hill is now undercutting another point Republicans have been making. She says Tim Morrison misrepresented concerns he said she had about Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, a key witness.

It should be noted that Hill has talked about her anger and discomfort with Sondland during that time period, but she is not rattled as she is relaying all of this. If Republicans might’ve hoped to weaponize the anger she is talking about, she is not showing it here.

for Bolton’s.
