'The witch hunt continues,' President Trump says of impeachment probe, as Republicans seek to have public testimony from Hunter Biden.
By Byron Tau and Rebecca Ballhaus Nov. 9, 2019 2:49 pm ET WASHINGTON—President Trump said he is likely to release the full transcript of his April telephone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday, a day before public impeachment hearings are set to begin in the U.S. House.
Meanwhile, House Republicans have asked to call Vice President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, as well as an anonymous whistleblower whose initial complaint sparked the investigation that has roiled the Trump administration. Republicans have objected to the process and have by and large fallen in line behind Mr. Trump. The witness list appears to be geared at crafting a defense of Mr. Trump that he was correct to have concerns about alleged Ukranian interference in the 2016 election—and had good reason to ask Ukranian officials to open numerous investigations about what occurred there during the last U.S. presidential election.“Americans see through this sham impeachment process,” Mr.
“This inquiry is not, and will not serve, however, as a vehicle to undertake the same sham investigations into the Bidens or 2016 that the President pressed Ukraine to conduct for his personal political benefit, or to facilitate the President’s effort to threaten, intimidate, and retaliate against the whistleblower who courageously raised the initial alarm," Mr. Schiff said in a Saturday statement.
