“I’m very angry about how…the most powerful person on the face of the Earth would remove you from office after your stellar service and somehow feel compelled to characterize you as ‘bad news,’” Rep. Denny Heck said to former Ambassador Yovanovitch.
Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik used her five minutes for questions to go after House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff and his remarks about having the whistleblower testify.
Stefanik read off headlines from several publications reporting Schiff saying that the whistleblower, whose complaint initiated to the House impeachment inquiry, would testify before committee: "I keep can going but the chairman refused to allow us put these into the record as unanimous consent. It's important to prevent whistleblower from retaliation and firing and want to make sure whistleblowers are able to come forward but in this case the fact we are getting criticized by Chairman Adam Schiff for statements he made early on in the process shows the due duplicity and just the abuse of power that we are continuing to see.
"My client's complaint has been largely corroborated. Nonetheless, I have offered to have my client respond in writing, under oath, and under penalty of perjury to Republican questions," Andrew Bakaj said in a statement to CNN. Tensions over the whistleblower's identity have been building in the closed-door depositions — transcripts of which have been publicly released over the course of this week.
