It's hard to have testimony from people with direct involvement when we're all collectively pretending that the executive branch has a magical and non-constitutional immunity to oversight and subpoena.

Fires the prosecutor investigating Hunter's company who had given him over $3 million in payments.
Trump wants to investigate that.
What's wrong?
I would want to impeach Trump if he didn't want to investigate that, and covered it up.

Trump continues to insist that he was only concerned about corruption in the Ukraine- yet in neither of the phone conversations released (another one was put out today) does he even mention "corruption". But "Biden" comes up several times in the July phone call.

White House Releases Rough Transcript Of Trump's First Call With Zelenskiy
President Trump on Friday released the rough transcript of a brief, 16-minute congratulatory conversation he had on April 21 with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, timed to coincide with the beginning of the second day of open hearings in the House impeachment inquiry.
It's the second such transcript released by the White House. In September, Trump released the rough transcript of his July 25 phone call with Zelenskiy, which is at the heart of the Democrats' impeachment push. The White House has said releasing the transcripts shows Trump had nothing to hide.
The rough transcript of the April 21 call differs significantly from the way the White House had initially described the conversation on the day that it happened.
"President Trump underscored the unwavering support of the United States for Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity – within its internationally recognized borders – and expressed his commitment to work together with President-elect Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian people to implement reforms that strengthen democracy, increase prosperity, and root out corruption," the press statement said.
But in the rough transcript, Trump mentions neither U.S. support for Ukraine in its fight over territory with Russia, nor Ukraine's effort to address corruption.
Zelenskiy invited Trump to attend his inauguration and to visit his country to see it for himself. Trump said he would be sure to send "a great representative" to the event.
And then Trump invited Zelenskiy to the White House, an invitation Trump still hasn't followed through on. "When you're settled in and ready, I'd like to invite you to the White House," Trump said, according to the rough transcript. We'll have a lot of things to talk about, but we're with you all the way."
Actually setting a date for that White House meeting would become a central thread in what witnesses have described as a pressure campaign by Trump and his allies to get Zelenskiy to launch investigations that would benefit Trump politically. During the July call, Trump asked Zelenskiy to look into former Vice President Joe Biden's son Hunter and a debunked conspiracy theory about the 2016 election.
Those investigations were never launched, and Zelenskiy still hasn't gotten his Oval Office meeting, although Ukraine's leader did meet with Trump at the United Nations General Assembly in late September.
Biden was a case of corruption, an obvious one that if they ignored would prove they didn't care about corruption

If he is concerned about corruption, why did he not inquire about any other possibilities besides Biden? Biden is the only one he was interested in.
There is NO mention of Biden and NOTHING wrong was said.
There was no pressure campaign.

He can't ask about everything in one phone call and he has an entire DoJ and State Department to pursue things with.
And he DID ask about something else, the Ukrainian interference in 2016 and the Crowdstrike connection.

That is the one released today- from a call in April. The Biden call occurred in July and was released previously. Trump had said he discussed corruption in the Ukraine on this call but as the post you shared shows, he did not.
There is NO mention of Biden and NOTHING wrong was said.
There was no pressure campaign.

None of that is in the transcript of the call released today despite claims it did.WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump released a rough transcript Friday of his first conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and was quickly confronted with questions about why it departed from an initial description of that April conversation.
Absent from the call was any discussion of corruption in Ukraine, which Trump and his allies have said was at the heart of the president's requests for investigations. A brief summary of the same call released by the White House in April claimed Trump "expressed his commitment" to strengthen democracy and "root out corruption."
(But both are "memorandums" and not full, direct transcripts
"The text in this document records the notes and recollections of Situation Room duty officers and [National Security Council] policy staff assigned to listen and memorialize the conversation in written form as the conversation takes place," ).

The other transcript has already been discussed, there was nothing wrong with it.

I prefer white cheddar to regular cheddar.
Whataboutism is a retarded argument in this case, because Trump was investigating corruption plain and simple.
You wanna get rid of Trump, why not attack him on a legitimate issue?

That's a tremendous transcript, just really fantastic how incredible it is. Thanks for sharing, just really inspiring how great it is

And ^this is why I don't rely on NPR for news anymore. If Joe Biden stopped an investigation looking into a company that was paying his son $50,000 per month, that is evidence of corruption affecting the Ukrainian government. My only problem is, that's the only corruption regarding the Ukrainian government Trump raised. Even looking into the Crowdstrike server had nothing to do with the Ukrainian government.

Yes, they were.
What about all of the people that congress "can't" subpoena because of "executive privilege?"
Umm... do have anything else because NPR is not a reliable source.

Obama pulled more Executive Privileges but I guess you forgot that. Example: Fast & Furious investigation.

How about Fox? Though they aren't that reliable.

Who the $#@! cares? Are you a toddler? "But Timmy did it too" has nothing to do with whether executive privilege should exist.
Just pointing out that I do not recall you lambasting Obama for his egregious executive privileges the way you have over Trump. Granted you think executive privilege should not exist but it has been there for a very long time and sometimes the good-guys have to use it to correct the wrongs.

So post something reliable then.

Swordsmyth, is that you? Get off of donnay's account.
Do you think that executive privilege should exist?
Sounds legit.
Actually though it is Fox, it isn't an article but the White House released memorandum of the phone call. It is OK to read that. (assuming one trusts the White House- it is not a literal transcription of the actual conversation but was written from notes later and it has since been learned that some parts were left out). Trump expresses concern about Biden but does not mention Ukrainian corruption at all. Trump has claimed that it is corruption he was concerned about- not dirt on a political opponent. He also criticizes the US Ambassador who was actually trying to crack down on corruption in the Ukraine (he had her removed).
Does anybody here actually have an argument against the OP's posted video stating how absurd the impeachment hearings were?
Just curious.
