Rep. Sondand confirms Quid Pro Quo???
The very fact that Sondand, a Trump political appointee, is even testifying before a congressional committee shows that the White House's strategy of boycotting all attempts by the House's committees to request/subpoena government witnesses is crumbling!
Even Sondand, who is not a career diplomat, can see the political "writing on the wall" and came to the conclusion that casting his lot with the Trump Administration is no longer in his best interests!
