New Ukraine revelations hang over impeachment trial
The House impeached President Donald Trump three weeks ago, but a gusher of evidence related to the case has continued to flow — threatening to intensify a scandal that has consumed the Trump presidency.
New witnesses are volunteering evidence that the House was unable to obtain in its three-month investigation, which resulted in charges that Trump abused his power and obstructed Congress. And a series of lawsuits and disclosures has yielded new documents and emails that the Trump administration initially withheld. Even more releases are likely in the coming weeks, complicating an imminent Senate trial to determine whether Trump should be removed from office.
Democrats have said their impeachment case against Trump was overwhelming, but they also acknowledged their investigation was incomplete. The goal, they said, was to balance thoroughness with an urgent need to confront an ongoing threat to the 2020 election: Trump’s alleged solicitation of Ukraine’s assistance to damage his political rivals.
As a result, the case has continued to evolve even weeks after the House’s impeachment proceedings formally concluded.
