Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman told House investigators that the White House transcript of a July call between President Trump and Ukraine's president omitted crucial words and phrases.

The omissions included Trump’s assertion that there were recordings of former Vice President Joseph Biden discussing Ukraine corruption, and an explicit mention by Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, of Burisma Holdings, the energy company whose board employed Biden's son Hunter.

Colonel Vindman told House impeachment investigators that he tried to change the reconstructed transcript made by the White House staff to reflect the omissions. But while some of his edits appeared to have been successful, he said, those two corrections were not made.

It is not clear why some of Colonel Vindman’s changes were not made, but the decision by a White House lawyer to quickly lock down the reconstructed transcript subverted the normal process of handling such documents, according to people familiar with the matter.

The rough transcript also contains ellipses at three points where Mr. Trump is speaking. Colonel Vindman told investigators that at the point of the transcript where the third set of ellipses appears, Mr. Trump said there were tapes of Mr. Biden.

Don’t worry guys I’m sure he was just doing it for totally true and altruistic reasons his lawyers advised him to say.

Here's a easy to read telcon of the Ukraine call if anyone hasn't read it yet!

Here's the video of Biden that Trump was referring to in the telcon:

Lefties will have a problem with this though because it's not a "transcript."

A telcon isn't a verbatim transcript of a discussion. The text in the documents records the notes and recollections of Situation Room Duty officers and NSC policy staff assigned to listen and memorialize the conversation in written form as the conversation takes place. In other words Presidents stopped taping conversations a long time ago so only notes are taken. These transcriptions are handled by professionals. Think of court transcribers who can type everything word for word in real time. They won't type all of the "Uhhh, ahhh ,ummms" but its done in real time so some words may be missed or minor errors. There isn't going to be a longer version than this telcon lol.


Here's the transcript people are having a fuss over:


Here is what Schiff said:

Later during the hearing Schiff said:


Here’s the transcript has reported by CNN:


MSNBC’s Katy Tur:


The whole Ukraine thing is just more Russia Russia Russia nonsense. In other words fake news doing more fake news!
