Impeachment hearing puts Trump’s Ukraine case on full display
House Judiciary’s first impeachment hearing of the Trump inquiry turned the constitutional case against the president into a live public airing, with the White House declining to send counsel and Republicans left to argue that the whole thing was an academic exercise. The result was less exoneration than a bigger megaphone for the charge that Trump abused presidential power and then tried to run out the clock.
