Donald J. Trump never spoke to the Special Counsel in person, but, he was willing to answer questions in writing. Robert S. Mueller, III found that sufficient to the inquiry of Russia's interference with the 2016 elections. Now, the whistleblower is willing to do the same, but, McConnell states he is not willing to carry out the responsibility of the US Senate to understand the circumstances of the burgeoning impeachment going forward.
Does McConnell know how to compose such questions? I am worried about Moscow Mitch. He doesn't legislate and now he doesn't compose questions. THIS IS A WHISTLEBLOWER. It is very decent of him/her to be willing to answer further questions at all. The US Senate is irresponsible and the USA has it's national security in question.
The US Senate is not dealing with a wayward president who today is saying if Quid Pro Quo exists, so what? (click here) Trump's presidency has gone from bad to worse. The USA national security hangs in the balance and he says if he broke the law it should not matter. It would seem Mulvaney floated this attitude of Trump's and now he is using it as if it is a legitimate defense.
It is like being cheated on by your spouse, "But, honey, it doesn't mean anything."

The first Ukraine whistleblower (click here) has offered through their legal team to answer congressional Republicans' written questions directly to them and under penalty of perjury, bypassing Democrats who control the impeachment process, attorney Mark Zaid confirmed to ABC News on Sunday.
Zaid said the original offer to answer written questions was to the full House Intelligence Committee, under the control of Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif. Republicans have complained about the unfairness of the closed-door depositions and impeachment process, with some suggesting the whistleblower's identity should be known so President Donald Trump can face his accuser....

"NEVER TRUMPERS!"
It is an oppositional BRAND of the INDIVIDUAL.

...It’s true, (click here) Republicans love Trump. They love him as much or more than they’ve loved any president since the party’s founding in 1854.
But there’s more to consider here. The GOP holds the White House and the U.S. Senate, but if current trends continue, it soon might be struggling to maintain its major-party status. Registered Republican voters in the country are on the verge of being overtaken by independent voters, according to data from July 2018. Registered Democrats, meanwhile, outnumber Republicans nationwide by some 12 million.
Part of what’s happening is that younger, urban Americans are trending dramatically toward the Democrats or independent status. Added to that: many old-school conservatives -- particularly Baby Boomers and Gen Xers drawn to the Republican Party in their youth by leaders such as William F. Buckley Jr., Ronald Reagan and Jack Kemp -- have simply walked away from the Grand Old Party.
The latter are the NeverTrumpers Mair says have failed in their efforts to oppose Donald Trump. But as Mair herself acknowledged, she’s looking at the situation from the inside. The trees might be at least partially blocking her view of the forest.
“I think what most of these analyses of ‘Is NeverTrump dead?’ miss is that it was never really a collective political movement, but rather an individual moral decision,” Patrick Chovanec, a one-time policy aide for former GOP House Speaker John Boehner, tweeted this week....

Ten years ago (click here), a rocket slammed into the moon.
The impact sent a plume of lunar material from the moon’s south pole flying out into space. For a few minutes, the spacecraft that had unleashed the rocket coasted through the mist, its instruments absorbing as much data as they could. Amid the molecules of methane, ammonia, carbon dioxide, and other compounds, the spacecraft detected something wonderfully familiar: water....
