To those witnessess. I am not confident that they will flip. Some may even try.to cover for the traitor-in-chief, especially if he dangles some dollars (or Rubles) their way.

the House will be adding an Article 1a to the Articles of Impeachment. Article 1 being the Ukraine caper and Article 1a being obstruction of justice and witness tampering in connection with the Ukraine caper.

The ex-Ukraine ambassador Marie Yovanovitch amongst others who might gather their courage and do the right thing.

There will be those who stonewall - the hardcore cultists like Mukasey, John Kelley, Pompeo, Barr - but there should be enough who will willingly testify that the traitors are just exposed as un-American traitors
