Fiona Hill just dropped a house on Donald Trump

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Donald Trump’s former National Security Council official Fiona Hill testified to the House impeachment inquiry today. It was behind closed doors, but just enough details have leaked out to make clear how badly it went for Donald Trump. In fact it’s starting to look like she just dropped a house on him.

Fiona Hill, a career professional who has never shown any inkling of personal loyalty to Donald Trump, ended up testifying for roughly ten hours, according to NBC News. This alone is bad news for Trump, as it means she had plenty of relevant information to give the committee. Then Democratic Congressman Denny Heck, who was in the hearing, stepped in front of the cameras.

Congressman Heck said that Fiona Hill knew her stuff and that she displayed a nearly “eidetic memory” of the events that transpired. He then addressed the fact that some House Republicans are complaining about the closed-door nature of her testimony, saying “They are darn lucky it wasn’t public.”

In other words, Fiona Hill just nailed Donald Trump to the wall. The mere fact that she was testifying today appeared to motivate Gordon Sondland to leak that he plans to throw his ally Trump under the bus during his own testimony this week, ostensibly so Sondland doesn’t take the fall for everything that Hill just spelled out. Before too long, Hill’s testimony transcript will be publicly released, and based on Heck’s assessment, it’ll be devastating to Trump.
