How is the Impeachment

In the impeachment proceedings against U.S. President Donald Trump the Democrats step up a gear. After last week, three witnesses testified publicly before the Committee of the house of representatives, there are now eight names on the program for the next three days. Including current or former diplomats, political advisors and employees of intelligence services are.

Three of the eight were from the Republicans on the list, you should relieve Trump. The others are already ahead of their public statement in the Twitter firing line of the US President. About Jennifer Williams, an adviser to Vice-President Mike Pence, who is responsible for European and Russian Affairs. Williams had overheard the phone call between Trump and the President of Ukraine Volodimir Selenski – the conversation which led to the Ukraine affair and the impeachment proceedings.

Williams called the phone call in front of the intelligence Committee already is "unusual" and "inappropriate", as the Transcript of her interview shows. Now you will be the next to witness public information, on Tuesday morning in Washington (15 p.m. CET). Trump has attacked it on Sunday on Twitter and called it a "Never Trumper", so a Person who is not with the policy of the President agree.

Tell Jennifer Williams, whoever that is, to read BOTH transcripts of the presidential calls, & see the just released ststement from Ukraine. Then she should meet with the other Never Trumpers, who I don’t know & mostly never even heard of, & work out a better presidential attack!

A spokeswoman for the Vice-President, Pence responded to requests from the US media about this Tweet, only with the Statement that "Jennifer was a staff member of the Ministry of foreign Affairs".

the Tweet could in the indictment

Trump had come during the hearing of the Ex-Ambassador in the Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, with a Tweet causing a stir. While the diplomat testified, wrote to the US President: "Everywhere, where Marie Yovanovitch went, the situation has deteriorated. She was first in Somalia, as the came out? And also in the Ukraine, where the new President has talked in the second telephone conversation bad about you."

trump's Tweet was displayed during the hearing, and the Challenged was directly asked.

trump's Tweet was read aloud during the hearing. Yovanovitch described the words as "very intimidating". You don't know what the President intended, but the effect on you is intimidating. The democratic Chairman Adam Schiff called Trumps words as "witness intimidation, in real time," and made it clear that you'll take the "very, very seriously".

on the Republican side of the Tweet was not received well, even Impeachment-opponents called it "ill-considered" and "harmful". For the magazine "the Atlantic" could turn the Democrats the President from such witness intimidation at all, a further jumper in the impeachment proceedings and in the prosecution process.

For the democratic opposition leader, Nancy Pelosi Trump has already done so to many errors, as you said in an Interview with TV channel CBS. The President was overwhelmed with his office, which is why he wanted other reduce down, in order not to be as the impostor unmasked.

Nixon had cared at least enough for the country to recognize that it could not go on like this, said Pelosi.
