Impeachment Inquiry Updates


The Washington Post's John Wagner is providing an updated digest of impeachment inquiry- related news (so we don't have to!).  Here's some of the latest, and what's on tap:
Kurt D. Volker, who resigned last week as the Trump administration’s special envoy for Ukraine, arrived on Capitol Hill to be interviewed behind closed doors in front of three House committees, accelerating the Democratic-led impeachment inquiry.  [snip]
(Volker began his day at 9:30 a.m. to begin his round of depositions.)
●Trump involved Vice President Pence in efforts to pressure Ukraine’s leader, though officials say that Pence was unaware of allegations in the whistleblower complaint
●Odd markings, ellipses fuel doubts about the ‘rough transcript’ of Trump’s Ukraine call
●Trump’s personal lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani consulted on Ukraine with imprisoned Paul Manafort via a lawyer
Check Wagner's live updates at the link in the first paragraph above.
