According to the manuscript of Bolton’s upcoming book, the Times reported, Trump directed his then-national security adviser in early May to help with his campaign to pressure Ukrainian officials to get information on Democrats.

The afternoon is expected to include up to four hours of debate on a motion on whether to call witnesses, but Democrats likely do not have the votes. That was made clear on Thursday evening, when Sen. Lamar Alexander announced that he would vote against calling witnesses, characterizing Trump’s conduct as improper but not impeachable. Democrats may be able to get 50 votes on the motion for witnesses, but that would still likely fall short.
