What Went Down During Marie Yovanovitch’s Testimony

Like Taylor, Yovanovitch has strong nonpartisan credentials. She’s a longtime career diplomat who has served under six presidents, including Republicans and Democrats.

Schiff is trying to turn Nunes’s reading of the call readout against him, pointing out that Trump has obstructed witnesses from testifying and prevented thousands of pages of documents from being released. This wasn’t a point they made much at all on Wednesday — wondering if they’re trying to make up some ground there, since obstruction of justice seems likely to be one of their articles of impeachment.

Stefanik has been an attack dog of sorts in these hearings, which is interesting given how much she’s criticized the president in the past.
