Today, Gordon Sondland again revised his testimony in the House impeachment inquiry. He threw all of Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Mick Mulvaney, Rick Perry, and Mike Pompeo under the bus.
The Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee reciprocated, by trying to throw Mr. Sondland under a different bus.
To me it was clear. Sondland was and is deeply committed to CYA, and to avoiding perjury charges. He didn't plead the Fifth Amendment; doing so might have proved problematic. But by presenting a memory as full of holes as Swiss cheese, Sondland managed to shift blame away from himself and to the Trump administration.
