A House Intelligence Committee investigation concluded, based on extensive evidence and sworn testimony from administration officials, that Mr. Trump had frozen nearly $400 million in security assistance that Congress had allocated for Ukraine this year, using it as leverage in his quest to get the country's president to announce investigations into former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and other Democrats.

Biden Jr. and other Democrats, while withholding nearly $400 million in military assistance and a White House meeting for Ukraine's president.
|
|
Over the last two weeks, in sworn testimony from experienced public servants with no political axes to grind, the American people have learned that President Trump orchestrated a scheme to extract what he called a "favor" from a foreign leader by withholding a White House meeting and hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid, against his own administration's policy and the bipartisan wishes of Congress.

The Senate was absolutely right to delay a vote on Kavanaugh's confirmation so that there could be consideration of Christine Blasey Ford's allegation, because it's a serious charge to which she has, at a definite cost, attached her name; because this is a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court that we're talking about; and because it really is possible, in the course of sworn testimony from these two and (I hope) other investigation, that we'll get a clearer, fuller picture of what happened more than 35 years ago.
