Leaving the closed Sondland deposition, Adam Schiff told us of Mulvaney’s comments: “I think Mr Mulvaney’s acknowledgement means that things have gone from very very bad to much much worse.”
He declined to answer further questions including whether he wants to speak to Mulvaney.

Schiff is an idiot. I am sure his source misconstrued or misrepresented Mulvaney's comments. He's still an idiot, though.

What does the Constitution say regarding high crimes and misdemeanors while in office?
Is requesting help from a foreign country OK? It's true that countries do this all the time.
But it's not OK if it's to find potentially damaging information on a domestic political rival...
What about asking for help in digging up past history, like the DNC server? This cannot be construed as looking for dirt on a current opponent, or can it?
Did Mulvaney say at any point that Trump wanted to investigate the Bidens? That would not be OK.
Regarding Giuliani, perhaps it's not illegal or impeachable to ask an individual without the proper vetting or security clearances to talk to a foreign country, but is it impeachable, when that individual is being paid by that foreign country (Ukraine), or by a known foreign enemy (Russia)? That would be a major conflict of interest at minimum.

The server investigation is as political as the Biden investigation. Trump wants an of 2016 in order to use it in the 2020 campaign. The request is for the benefit of Trump, Manafort, and Trump's campaign. It has nothing to do with the United States relations with Ukraine.

Barr won't move on them, he's part of the pact. That's why Trump fired Sessions, he wouldn't go along with this and just stonewall Congress.
