Trump planned to watch Nunes, then tune out Yovanovitch hearing: White House
President Donald Trump planned to watch some of Friday's impeachment hearings, the White House said in a statement. "The president will be watching Congressman Nunes' opening statement, but the rest of the day he will be working hard for the American people," said White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham, referring to Rep.
Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee. During his statement, the California Republican read a just-released readout of a call between Trump and Ukrainian President-elect Volodymyr Zelensky. Democrats are focusing on a second call between Trump and Zelensky in which Trump asked his counterpart to "look into" former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.
