Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham Released this Statement Today Regarding Transcripts

November 5, 2019

Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham regarding transcripts released this statement today by House committees:

“Both transcripts released today show there is even less evidence for this illegitimate impeachment sham than previously thought.  Ambassador Sondland squarely states that he “did not know, (and still does not know) when, why or by whom the aid was suspended.”  He also said he “presumed” there was a link to the aid—but cannot identify any solid source for that assumption.  By contrast, Volker’s testimony confirms there could not have been a quid pro quo because the Ukrainians did not know about the military aid hold at the time.  No amount of salacious media-biased headlines, which are clearly designed to influence the narrative, change the fact that the President has done nothing wrong.” - Stephanie Grisham
