Ukraine Breaks Dem’s Hearts by Confirming Its Officials Won’t Testify Oct. 29th 2019
Ukraine officials have informed the House Democrats that they will not participate or give testimony in the Trump impeachment inquiry.
According to The Hill:
Ukrainian officials will not testify in the ongoing impeachment inquiry into President Trump, the nation’s foreign minister said Tuesday.
“We don’t have anything to do with this at all,” Vadym Prystaiko told reporters, according to Reuters. “We won’t go there, we won’t comment.”
Prystaiko also said the relationship between Kiev and Washington has not changed since the start of the impeachment probe, according to Reuters.
A call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is at the center of the inquiry.
The Democrats will likely use this as an opportunity to attack President Trump for a foreign country’s cooperation with Trump.
President Trump called out Chicago’s police chief and leadership while speaking at an event there on Monday over the increasing violence in the city.
According to The Hill:
President Trump on Monday used his first trip to Chicago as president to tear into the city and its leadership, comparing its violence to Afghanistan and blasting officials as inept and disloyal to the U.S.The president addressed the annual conference of the International Association of Chiefs of Police, where he criticized the city’s crime rate and its policies protecting undocumented immigrants. He wasted little time blaming those issues on the city’s superintendent of police, Eddie Johnson, who boycotted the event.“Here’s a man that could not bother to show up for a meeting of police chiefs … in his hometown and with the president of the United States. And you know why? It’s because he’s not doing his job,” Trump told the gathering of law enforcement officials.Trump also hit Chicago over its “sanctuary city” policies, accusing Johnson of harboring undocumented immigrants at the expense of the safety of U.S. citizens and betraying his oath of duty.
The Chicago police chief did not attend the conference due to Trump’s values not aligning with his or the city’s.
