  • "Throughout this inquiry, he (Trump) has attempted to conceal the evidence from Congress and...the American people," said House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler.

    "Our president holds the ultimate public trust. When he betrays that trust and puts himself before country, he endangers the Constitution, he endangers our democracy, and he endangers our national security," he added, speaking about Trump's alleged pressure campaign on Ukraine.
