But at what point do the odds get recalculated? The boat is listing badly and at some point people will jump and try to make the bast deal possible. Cipillone is not looking for elective office so doesn’t need Trump’s endorsement. He probably has a lot else to lose though.

I don't actually believe this person has done anything criminal or that he will be professionally damaged by hiding other people's criminal actions. Quite the contrary, given the changing winds. However, he may well fear physical reprisal from a crazed MAGA.

Good. Let's hope he's forthcoming and further implicates Meadows, Giuliani and Trump.
Unfortunately he’s too much on a wimp to have his testimony recorded, it’s a “transcribed testimony.” What a jerk.
BUT...
... that's how Cassidy Hutchinson started, with recorded testimony. And then she switched her Trump-paid lawyer to a normal one, and agreed to the live hearing.
Who is Cipollone's lawyer????
Who knows, we may yet induce him to speak at a live hearing!!!
Repped by Mike Purpura, former Deputy WH Counsel under Trump, who I presume is advising Cipillone to take an extremely expansive interpretation of executive privilege. He was part of the first impeachment defense team.
Right, but is he paid by Trump-associated people, is the question. All the witnesses are Republicans and the last worked in the White House, so such baggage does not automatically mean they wish to weasel their way out of facts.

Panda painting zoom room guy - Eric whatshisname - was on the first Trump impeachment team, too, and he has been very helpful.
