No, it isn't. All were asked point blank and gave their testimony under oath. No bribery. No QPQ. And today... Trump wanted nothing.
Nope, they testified the orders did not come DIRECTLY to them from Trumps mouth.
Sondland testified he was directed by Trump to coordinate with Rudy G. who he testified DID direct a QPQ.
Gordon Sondland specifically testified he DID see a QPQ.
The excuse now is that it has to come directly through the president and not through an underling to count, sorry, no dice - nearly all of the presidents agenda flows through underlings as it propagates out.
Then that's easy to figure out. No wonder Nunes was so mysterious, dropping but a hint.
White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) official Mark Sandy, who testified in the impeachment inquiry Saturday, told congressional investigators that he did not know why aid to Ukraine was held up, The New York Times reported, citing two sources.

Not what was in the "call" transcript released by the white house!

What did Trump get? Biden got the Ukraine's prosecutor fired by bribing them with $1 billion in taxpayer money. That's how bribery works: this for that.
Sondland's not doing Trump any favors. He made it clear using tone that Trump's "I want nothing" repeated twice as he was in a bad mood (also previously testified to) was but a temper tantrum. Specifically:
“I want nothing. I want nothing. I want no quid pro quo. Tell [Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy] to do the right thing.”
That would be Mark Sandy who testified in secret Saturday and Schiff has the Testimony locked away since it is damaging to his case.
Oh, well there goes Schiff blowing up this argument.
1) Sandy is reviewing his transcript, which is why it was not released.
2) Republicans were free to use excerpts of the transcript.
3) Sandy was not actually the top official.
4) The officials who were the decision makers were subpoenaed and refused to comply.
So another Devin Nunes lie that you bought into debunked.

The question is: did trump want nothing? The answer is "no" according to the white house transcript containing the details of the favors trump wanted from Ukraine.

That was perfect timing and content to reopen with.

If a public official demands a bribe and you refuse to pay and instead go to the authorities to report the demand, "well I never actually got paid" is a crappy defense for the corrupt official.
