BREAKING: House impeachment investigators have subpoenaed acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, demanding that he testify about his knowledge of Trump’s decision to withhold military aid to Ukraine
House impeachment investigators late Thursday subpoenaed Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, demanding that he testify about his knowledge of President Donald Trump’s decision to withhold military aid to Ukraine.
But other than Mulvaney’s jaw-dropping news conference, when he all but acknowledged a quid pro quo and told detractors to “get over it,” there’s been no official explanation for the hold on military aid, which was first revealed by POLITICO on Aug. 28. Though Trump ordered the aid held on July 18, it’s unclear whether Ukrainians became aware of it until the POLITICO report revealed it publicly. Trump didn’t mention it in a July 25 phone call with the newly elected Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, even as he pressed Zelensky to investigate Biden, as well as a debunked theory that Ukraine — not Russia — hacked the Democratic National Committee in 2016. But days after the POLITICO article ran, Gordon Sondland, the U.S.
Kent also indicated that it was Sondland’s connection to Mulvaney that led to Sondland’s involvement in Ukraine policy, even though as ambassador to the EU, he nominally had no involvement.
