Volodymyr Zelenskiy to investi-
gate Hunter Biden’s membership
on the board of a Ukrainian gas
company. It is that call, and the
circumstances surrounding it,
that are fueling the new Demo-
cratic drive for impeachment.
McConnell, a steadfast Trump
defender, nonetheless swatted
down talk that that the GOP-con-
trolled Senate could dodge the
matter of impeachment if the
House approved charges against
Trump.
“It’s a Senate rule related to
impeachment, it would take 67

associates.
Meanwhile, the circle of offi-
cials with knowledge of Trump’s
phone call to Ukraine’s president
widened with the revelation that
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo
listened in on the July 25 conver-
sation.
Pompeo’s presence on the
Ukraine call, confirmed by two
officials who spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity to discuss an
internal matter, provided the first
confirmation that a Cabinet offi-
cial heard Trump press President
Julia Garza Martinez,
77, went to be with the
Lord on Saturday, Sep-
tember 28, 2019. She was
bom on July 4, 1942 in
Baytown, Texas to Ray-
mond Saenz Garza and
Ventura Tobias Garza.
She was a loving, kind,
thoughtful, generous and
forgiving soul. Julia was
a homemaker who took
care of everyone and
treated everyone as her
own.
She was strong in her
religious beliefs, and her
votes to change, so I would have
no choice but to take it up,” Mc-
Connell said on CNBC. “How
long you’re on it is a whole dif-
ferent matter.”
Trump took to Twitter to de-
fend anew his phone call with
Zelenskiy as “perfect” and to
unleash a series of attacks, most
strikingly against House intel-
ligence committee Chairman
Adam Schiff. The Democrat, he
suggested, ought to be tried for a
capital offense for launching into
a paraphrase of Trump during a
congressional hearing last week.
That was after one of Trump’s
staunchest defenders, Senate
Majority Leader Mitch McCo-
nnell, said he would have “no
choice” but to consider articles
of impeachment if the House ap-
proved them.
With Congress out of session
for observance of the Jewish hol-
idays, Democrats moved aggres-
sively against Giuliani, request-
ing by Oct. 15 “text messages,
phone records and other commu-
nications” that they referred to
as possible evidence. They also
requested documents and depo-
faith never wavered. She
prayed for her family ev-
ery night and uplifted oth-
ers. She enjoyed reading,
crocheting, doing word
searches, watching the
Astros, watching football
and movie nights with her
husband and son-in-law,
George. Julia was a won-
derful cook, her specialty
was her tortillas. She will
be dearly missed by all
who knew her.
She is preceded in death
by her parents, Raymond
and Ventura Garza; sister
Gloria Torres; brother,
Robert Garza and brother,
Ronald Garza.
Julia is survived by her
husband of 51 years, Pe-
dro J. Martinez; daugh-
ter, Julie A. Villarreal and
husband George; son,
Pete A. Martinez and wife
Gabriel; daughter, Patricia
R. Postoak and husband
Brandon; grandchildren,
Sarah, Abigail, Hannah,
Joshua, Bailey and Jace;
sister, Lucille Saldana and
brother, Raymond Garza
Jr. and wife Yvonne.
Honoring the family
serving as pallbearers
would call her mother
daily. Julie’s memory
will live on through her
3-year-old grandson, Finn
Lee, who was his Gigi’s
world.
Julie loved spending
time with her four neph-
ews and was readily avail-
able to spend quality time
with them. She enjoyed
getting her hair and nails
done regularly and never
left her house without a
dress on. Not a birthday,
anniversary or special oc-
casion passed by without
her sending a sweet mes-
sage to the person. Julie
will be dearly missed by
all who knew her.
She is preceded in death
by grandparents, Marjo-
rie and Wendell Lucas,
and Anthony and Lillian
Kubin; and uncles, Wayne
Lucas and Joe Cash.
Julie is survived by her
daughter, Kyla Lucas and
fiance Ryan Badgett; par-
ents, Richard and Bernice

Julie Grace Lucas,
47, of Highlands, Texas,
passed away on Tues-

She was bom on April 7,

Jessye Norman, famed
opera star, dead at 74
NEW YORK (AP) — Jessye Norman,
the renowned international opera star
whose passionate soprano voice won
her four Grammy Awards, the National
Medal of Arts and the Kennedy Center
Honor, has died, according to family
spokesperson Gwendolyn Quinn. She
was 74.
A statement released to The Associat-
ed Press on Monday said Norman died
at 7:54 a.m. EDT from septic shock and
multi-organ failure secondary to com-
plications of a spinal cord injury she had
sustained in 2015.
“We are so proud of Jessye’s musi-
cal achievements and the inspiration
that she provided to audiences around
the world that will continue to be a
source of joy. We are equally proud of
her humanitarian endeavors addressing
matters such as hunger, homelessness,
youth development, and arts and culture
education,” the family statement read.
The leak of Plame’s covert identity was a
scandal for the administration of President
George W. Bush that led to the conviction
of vice presidential aide I. Lewis “Scoot-
er” Libby for lying to investigators and ob-
struction of justice.
President Donald Trump pardoned Libby
in 2018.
Plame, who is running as a Democrat for
Congress — in part as a Trump adversary
— called Wilson “a true American hero, a
patriot, and had the heart of a lion.”

Later, he, Pat Mann and

Man accused in deputy
slaying held without bond
HOUSTON (AP) — A judge has ordered
that a Houston man charged with capital
murder in the slaying of a sheriff’s deputy be
held without bond.
Robert Solis is accused of fatally shoot-
ing Harris County sheriff’s Deputy Sandeep
Dhaliwal during a traffic stop Friday near
Houston. Police say 42-year-old Dhaliw-
al was shot multiple times from behind. He
was airlifted to a hospital, where he was pro-
nounced dead.
District Judge Chris Morton said Monday
that, if convicted, 47-year-old Solis could
face the death penalty.
Solis had a warrant for violating parole
when Dhaliwal stopped him Friday. Authori-
ties say they received “credible information”
that Solis might have a mental illness or in-
tellectual disability and ordered an evalua-
tion.
Dhaliwal was the first Sikh sheriff’s depu-
ty on Harris County’s force.
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Joseph Wil-
son, the fonner ambassador who set off a
political firestorm by disputing U.S. intel-
ligence used to justify the 2003 Iraq inva-
sion, died Friday, according to his ex-wife.
He was 69.
Wilson died of organ failure in Santa Fe,
said his fonner wife, Valerie Plame, whose
identity as a CIA operative was exposed
days after Wilson’s criticism of U.S. intel-
ligence that Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein
was attempting to purchase uranium.
McDonald, 86, passed
away peacefully Friday,
September 27, 2019, in
Baytown, Texas. He was
bom March 30, 1933, in
Port Arthur, Texas.
Growing up in Port
Arthur, Weylon developed
a love for hard work, the
outdoors, and mischief.
He earned his bachelor’s
degree in mechanical
engineering at The
University of Texas, then
joined the United States
Navy and served for two
years as an officer on
the U.S.S. Lexington. It
was during those years
that many came to know
him as “Les.” Weylon
and Lynelle Tuma were
married April 4, 1959.
They had two children,
Randy and Kathy. The
family of four lived in
Colorado and Illinois
before coming back
“home” to Texas in 1963.

WASHINGTON — At one
end of Pennsylvania Avenue, the
president raged about treason. At
the other, the methodical march
toward impeachment proceeded
apace.
