The impeachment bombshell in John Bolton s book, explained – Vox

Former National Security Adviser John Bolton claims that, contrary to President Trump s denials, the president said outright that he was blocking aid to Ukraine unless Ukrainian officials helped with investigations into the Bidens.

That s according to an unpublished book manuscript written by Bolton and reported on by the New York Times s Maggie Haberman and Michael Schmidt Sunday night. And this revelation is enormously significant for Trump s unfolding impeachment trial since Bolton has offered to testify to the Senate. It may throw a wrench into Senate Republicans hope of wrapping up the trial quickly without any witness testimony.
