Zero Hedge: Democrats' 'Star Witness' Admits He Wasn't On Trump-Ukraine Call, Sole Source Was NY Times
House Democrats have released the latest in the series of heavily-redacted transcripts of the secret hearings they had undertaken in recent weeks - that of Bill Taylor - the top US diplomat in Ukraine - ahead of his public testimony next week.
As The Hill notes, Taylor is viewed as a key witness who previously testified in meticulous detail about what he considered an effort by Trump and his allies to pressure Ukraine into opening investigations that would benefit Trump politically.
In leaked copies of his 15-page opening statement, Taylor voiced concerns that the Trump administration had withheld nearly $400 million in aid as leverage to get Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to open investigations into interference in the 2016 election and former Vice President Joe Biden, one of his leading 2020 political rivals.

WNU Editor: When you listen to the main stream media they are saying that Ambassador Bill Taylor is a critical witness to President Trump's demand for a quid-pro-quo from the Ukraine government on military aid and an investigation on the Bidens .... Why William Taylor’s testimony is central to the impeachment inquiry (PBS). But when you read his transcript .... READ: Testimony Of William Taylor, Acting U.S. Envoy To Ukraine (NPR), the story is very different where he admits that his source of information comes SOLELY from the New York Times?!?!?! You gotta be kidding me. His sole source of information that he is basing his testimony on is from the New York Times?!?!?! It is not surprising that the main stream media is ignoring this critical admission. Kudos to the above post from Zero Hedge and The Federalist .... Testimony Transcript Shows William Taylor Never Talked To Trump, Wasn’t Even On July 25 Phone Call (The Federalist) for their summary and analysis on Bill Taylor's testimony. As for the Democrats hoping that he will be their "star witness" next week, my advice to them is that they find a better witness.

LOLS 😂
Less than $400 million! This makes DJT a piker! Biden threatened Ukraine with a billion dollar withholding sum.
Russ, you forgot to mention the termites!
No wonder miss nancy didn't want to start this nonsense of shiffty's.
This is hilarious!
How many times are the never-trumpers going to fool these people into becoming "witnesses" to their fabrications and then letting them get shredded under the scrutiny of congressional testimony? How many people utterly ruined their image on the Kavanaugh debacle because the DNC and their friendly partners in the media assured them they could astroturf the lies by controlling the narrative? Despite all their political and propaganda power they clearly can't pull it off. And yet every month there seems to be a new volunteer to die on the altar of public opinion, willing to repeat under oath some bullshit they were told as if it were fact.
Maybe I'm wrong and it'll work one day, but if I was looking at the actual results of each month's new "impeachable scandal" and some democrat operative approached me with the hot new "leaks" wondering if I'm willing to put my image on the line to push their narrative, quite frankly I'd be heading for the hills.
