Yovanovitch had assumed Trump bad-mouthed her in his first call with the Ukrainian president but the transcript of the call showed he didn’t.

House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) interrupted Rep. Elaine Stefanik (R-NY) as she asked him Friday whether he would continue to interrupt Republican questions to witnesses, as in earlier hearings.

Democrats will portray Yovanovitch as having been unjustly fired. But that is not illegal or impeachable, and Yovanovitch’s testimony actually helps Trump in many ways.

Republican lawmakers wasted no time, taking advantage of their opportunities and questioning the chairman and the unprecedented power he has brandished throughout the impeachment inquiry thus far.

The impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump backfired on congressional Democrats Wednesday, when a star witness inadvertently made the case that Hunter Biden’s wheeling and dealing in Ukraine should be investigated.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) decimated the Democrats’ “star witness” by demonstrating Ambassador William Taylor’s stunning lack of knowledge of the conversation between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

WASHINGTON, DC — Top State Department official George Kent told the House impeachment investigators Wednesday that some U.S. officials, including himself, pushed for reopening a “scuttled investigation” into the owner of Ukrainian company Burisma Holdings, which hired then-Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter in 2014.

House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes (D-CA) used his opening line of questioning to demonstrate the instances of Ukrainian meddling in the presidential election against President Trump and reminded the witnesses – and Democrats on the committee – of former President Obama’s infamous “hot mic” moment with the former Russian president in 2012.

Rev. Franklin Graham said Wednesday that the House Democrats’ first public impeachment hearing amounts to a national “day of shame.”

The second witness in the first public “impeachment inquiry” hearing to be called to testify Wednesday by House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) will be George Kent, Deputy Assistant Secretary in the European and Eurasian Bureau at the State Department.

Democrats have designed the first hour of the impeachment hearing to “be a blockbuster” — if that is all Americans watch.

House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) will call his first witness in the public hearing phase of the “impeachment inquiry” on Wednesday: Ambassador William Taylor, Chargé d’affairs at the U.S. embassy in Ukraine.

Lawmakers may face ethics violations if they talk about the “whistleblower” whose complaint spurred the impeachment inquiry, Schiff warned.

A key witness called by Democrats to appear before the House Intelligence Committee testified last month that President Donald Trump had temporarily blocked U.S. aid to Ukraine in 2017 — and expressed some similar concerns to those in 2019.

House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) has yet to release the transcript of the closed-door testimony of former National Security Council senior director for European and Russian affairs Tim Morrison.

House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) issued a set of restrictions on Thursday morning limiting Republicans to calling witnesses that can respond to three questions, all of which reflect Democrats’ views.

The mainstream media rushed to press with the Democrats’ “Cliff’s Notes,” which left out information that directly contradicted Democrats’ assertions. 

If House Democrats actually cared about convincing Senate Republicans, they would not have turned an impeachment inquiry into a kangaroo court.

Adam Schiff can block testimony from Republican-called witnesses during House Intelligence Committee impeachment hearings, said Steve Scalise.

More secret, closed-door hearings in the “impeachment inquiry” are scheduled for the next several days, despite a vote by the full House of Representatives Thursday to authorize public hearings.

Republicans will be unable to call the so-called “whistleblower” to testify in the impeachment inquiry under new rules Democrats will present to the House of Representatives today.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said on Wednesday the House Democrats’ impeachment process is “substantially different” to past impeachment investigations.

Lee Smith’s “The Plot Against the President” suggests the present “impeachment inquiry” is the fruit of a poisoned tree.
