BREAKING: President Trump abused the power of his office by pressuring Ukrainian President Zelensky to investigate Joe Biden and other Democrats, the House Intelligence Committee concluded in a report
President Donald Trump abused the power of his office by pressuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and other Democrats, the House Intelligence Committee concluded in a report.
The report, which is expected to form the basis of articles of impeachment, describes a president willing to use his leverage over Ukraine — a country at war with Russia — to extract a political benefit, in part by conditioning military aid and a coveted White House meeting for Zelensky on his willingness to launch the politically motivated investigations.
