My assessment of the Impeachment case, case presented and the defense, so far?

The House managers did an exemplary job of presenting overwhelming evidence, clips of validated testimonies from exceptional U.S. diplomats, and the few documents the House was able to procure, despite Trump’s absolute obstruction of Congress …. in their role to check a corrupted executive branch.  The defense presented their ludicrous arguments on how ‘Abuse of Power’ is not impeachable, and doesn’t reach the threshold of presidential removal.  The defense rested, two days of Senator’s questions & answers followed; Friday a vote is scheduled for calling witnesses.  Former national security advisor, John Bolton, should be called to testify, as he alleges in his pre-published book, ‘The Room Where It Happened’, that Ukriane-aid was definitely-conditioned on Zelensky announcing investigations into Trump’s top political rival, as first-hand-witnesses, Gordon Sondland testified to, and Mick Mulvaney conceded.  First-hand-witness, Lev Parnas, has significant evidence; he’s volunteered to testify.  On 1/29/20, the Senate chaplain prayed, “It is never wrong to do right”.
