Democrats Demand Ukraine Answers, Documents from Pence for Impeachment Inquiry

The chairmen of the House committees on Foreign Affairs, Intelligence, and Oversight are seeking a lengthy list of documents from Vice President Mike Pence in connection with the House’s impeachment inquiry of President Trump.

Reps. Eliot Engel, Adam Schiff and Elijah Cummings officially requested from Pence on Friday “all documents and communications” — notes, memos, transcripts, briefs — referring to or relating to President Trumps’s April and July phone calls with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“Recently, public reports have raised questions about any role you may have playerd in conveying or reinforcing the President’s stark message to the Ukrainian President,” the Democrats write in a letter to Pence.

The letter goes on to mention both reports that Pence national security advisor Keith Kellogg was on the July 25th call between Tump and Zelensky, and the fact that Pence refused to answer when asked if Trump’s decision to freeze aid to Ukraine was part of an effort to “try to dig up dirt” on the Biden family.

The problem is that it's not salacious enough to get a conviction. We have to hope more and more whistleblowers file complaints.
