LIVE: @HouseIntel Hearing with Ambassador Gordon Sondland. Sondland testified that the President’s scheme “kept getting more insidious as [the] timeline went on, and back in July, it was all about just corruption.” Hear from him in his own words: https://t.co/lD61VZmxOl — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
The question is: Are we prepared to accept that a president can leverage official acts to get an investigation of a political rival? Our Founding Fathers drafted the remedy of impeachment so we would have a mechanism when corruption comes from the highest office in the land. https://t.co/D2OxRRwVPN — PolitiTweet.org

My Republican colleagues argue that aid is held up all the time, for all sorts of reasons. I asked Volker and Morrison if they had ever seen military aid withheld because a president wanted investigations into a political rival. Volker: "No, I have not seen that" Morrison: "No" https://t.co/5iCFYYFhcu — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
We will now hear from Kurt Volker and Tim Morrison. Volker has testified no president should ever ask a foreign leader to interfere in a US election. Morrison will confirm Sondland told the Ukrainians they needed to do so to get vital aid. These are GOP-requested witnesses. https://t.co/w7EknMZNVL — PolitiTweet.org

LIVE: @HouseIntel Hearing with Ambassador Kurt Volker and Timothy Morrison, Senior Director for Europe and Russia, National Security Council. The American public has a right to know the full extent of the president's abuse of power: https://t.co/qQGhUoAf0q — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
My Republican colleagues suggest that since Trump's Ukraine scheme failed, since someone blew the whistle and the aid was ultimately released, that it doesn’t really matter if he tried to bribe a foreign power with military aid. The Constitution says otherwise. https://t.co/0V3OdIhU3r — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
My Republican colleagues may try to muddy the waters, but this fact is undisputed: On the July 25 call, Trump asked Zelensky to investigate the Bidens. There's no ambiguity about it. And Lt. Col. Vindman understood that ask as a demand. https://t.co/2g4EQ0j91H — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
Lt. Col. Vindman and Ms. Williams were both on the now infamous July 25th phone call and heard Trump ask Zelensky to investigate the Bidens. They also heard Zelensky mention Burisma, a fact left out of the call record. Vindman believed Trump’s “favor” was really a demand. https://t.co/EmsJ5404RS — PolitiTweet.org

Holmes overheard a July 26 call between Trump and Sondland, in which Trump asked if Zelensky committed to 'do the investigation.' Sondland then told Holmes Trump didn’t care about Ukraine, only his personal interests. Read his and David Hale's testimony: https://t.co/kIN698MiFC — PolitiTweet.org

The images from PolyU in Hong Kong are deeply concerning. The world will not stand idly by as HK’s One Country, Two Systems model is undermined by Beijing. Officials must show restraint, deescalate the situation, and engage in dialogue to address protestors' legitimate demands. — PolitiTweet.org

Morrison corroborates others who said Ukraine was told military aid was conditioned on announcing investigations Trump wanted. Bolton told Morrison to tell the lawyers. Williams learned that Trump told Pence not to attend Zelensky’s inauguration. Read: https://t.co/QI6OcPquuQ — PolitiTweet.org

Ambassador Yovanovitch's removal from Ukraine is the beginning of the story, A story about the President’s efforts to coerce, condition, or bribe Ukraine for political investigations. If you have any doubt that these are the facts, do what Trump says: Read the transcript. https://t.co/DndEcXNrFj — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
My Republican colleagues would have the American public believe that Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch's testimony is not relevant to our impeachment inquiry. One person who thought she was relevant? President Trump, who brought her up in his July 25 call with Zelensky. https://t.co/MOxyhxcEJy — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
Right now, President Trump is watching our hearing and tweeting baseless attacks against Ambassador Yovanovitch. This is witness intimidation in real time. And we won’t stand for it. https://t.co/2MngDNJUaw — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch is a stalwart anti-corruption advocate, dedicated to the rule of law. That made her an obstacle. So Trump and his allies pushed her out, and set the stage for what was to come. https://t.co/84ji13QdYv — PolitiTweet.org

My heart goes out to the students, faculty, staff and parents at Saugus High School in Santa Clarita. Kids should be safe at school. America's gun violence epidemic is a nightmare. Congress has the responsibility to do all we can to end it. It is past time for the Senate to act. — PolitiTweet.org

Taylor and Kent are dedicated public servants. The story they shared is deeply troubling—for our national security, and for the very health of our democracy. On Friday, we'll hear from Ambassador Yovanovitch. The American public deserves the full picture of Trump's misconduct. https://t.co/qJF5JohiBm — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
Let's set the record straight: Trump wasn't working to help Ukraine root out corruption. On the July 25 call, he didn't ask Zelensky about any issue related to Ukraine's oligarchs. He did ask about the Bidens. Trump's only focus was his own personal, political gain. https://t.co/Nr1xMHq5te — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
The facts are not seriously contested: This January, Trump's personal lawyer pressed Ukraine for investigations that would help Trump politically. $400 mil in assistance was withheld. A White House meeting was conditioned. As summer to turned to fall, it kept getting worse. https://t.co/bLLaT0X39F — PolitiTweet.org
Adam Schiff @RepAdamSchiff
This impeachment inquiry aims to answer a simple, yet deeply troubling question: Did the president invite or coerce a foreign nation to interfere in our election for his own political gain? If the answer is yes, what we do now will have a lasting impact on our democracy. https://t.co/Td0PoCPWMw — PolitiTweet.org
