Four things we learned at Wednesday’s Trump impeachment hearings
Lt. Col. Vindman said Trump’s request that Ukraine investigate the Bidens and the 2016 election was “improper,” and immediately reported his concerns to a superior.
“It was improper for the president to request — to demand — an investigation into a political opponent,” Vindman testified. “This would have significant implications if it became public knowledge…It would undermine our Ukraine policy. It would undermine our national security.” In his testimony, Volker repeatedly shot down the theories that Joe Biden as vice president was unduly influenced by his son Hunter, who had taken a lucrative on the board of a scandal-plagued natural gas company in Ukraine, or that people in Ukraine had interfered in the 2016 presidential in an effort to damage Trump’s campaign.
John Bolton, Trump’s hawkish National Security Advisor, recognized how inappropriate it was to hold back foreign aid to Ukraine while pressuring Ukraine’s leaders to investigate Joe Biden.
