Rep Jim Jordan Breaks Down William Taylor (Acting U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine) Ukraine Call Testimony
Jim Jordan: Imma read it one more time, Ambassador Taylor recalls that Mr. Morrison told Ambassador Taylor that I told Mr. Morrison that I conveyed this message to Mr. Yermak on September 1st 2019 in connection with Vice President Pence's visit to Warsaw and a meeting with President Zelensky. We got 6 people having 4 conversations in one sentence, and you just told me this is where you got your clear understanding …which I I mean, even though you had 3 opportunities with President Zelensky for him to tell you, you know what, we're gonna do these investigations and get the aid. Didn't tell you 3 different times, never makes an announcement, never tweets about it, never does a CNN interview. Ambassador, you weren't on the call were you, the President, you didn't listen in on President Trump's call, President Zelensky's call?
William Taylor: I did not.
Jim Jordan: You never talked with Chief of Staff Mulvaney. William Taylor: I never did.
Jim Jordan: You never met the President.
William Taylor: That's correct.
Jim Jordan: You had 3 meetings again with Zelensky and it didn't come up.
William Taylor: And 2 of those they'd never heard about as far as I know.
Jim Jordan: And President Ze..
William Taylor: And there was no reason for it to come up.
Jim Jordan: And President Zelensky never made an announcement. This is what I can't believe. And you're their star witness
(William Taylor grins biggly and nods yes).
William Taylor: Mr. Jordan…
Jim Jordan: You're the guy.. You're the guy based on this, based on, I mean I've seen, I've seen church prayer chains that were easier to understand than this.
(William Taylor grinning)
Jim Jordan: Ambassador Taylor recalls that Mr. Morrison told, now again this is, I hereby swear and affirm from Gordon Sondland , Mr. Taylor recalls that Mr. Morrison told Ambassador Taylor that I told Mr. Morrison that I conveyed this message to Mr. Yermak on September 1st 20… this all happens by the way…this all happens by the way in Warsaw, (Chairman) time of the gentleman has expired.
