JUST IN: Top White House Ukraine expert Alexander Vindman told congressional investigators he was convinced President Trump blocked Ukraine military aid to force an investigation of the Bidens, sources say
Vindman, a decorated Army officer, on Tuesday testified that he was convinced that a quid pro quo existed by July 10, which was before Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in a phone call that is now at the heart of the House's impeachment inquiry. Trump has repeatedly said he did nothing improper on the call and has cited it as the sole reason for the impeachment inquiry.
Lee Zeldin, R-New York, as asking questions that seemed to suggest that by meeting with Ukrainian government officials, Vindman -- the point person on the White House National Security Council for Ukraine policy -- was perhaps involved in nefarious deeds. Vindman responded that it was his job to meet with those officials as a representative of the US government.Zeldin also questioned why Vindman had not carried out the President's order to push for the Ukrainians to investigate the Bidens.
