National Security Advisor John Bolton adjusts his glasses as US President Donald Trump speaks while meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg in the Oval Office at the White House in Washington, US, April 2, 2019.
The account immediately gave Democrats new fuel in their pursuit of sworn testimony from Bolton and other witnesses, a question expected to be taken up later this week by the Republican-led Senate. Bolton's account was first reported byby a person familiar with the manuscript on the condition of anonymity to discuss the book, “The Room Where It Happened; A White House Memoir," ahead of its release March 17.
First, though, Trump's legal team will begin laying out its case in depth, turning to several high-profile attorneys to argue against impeachment. Trump faces two articles of impeachment. One accuses him of abusing his power by asking Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden, his Democratic rival, at the same time that his administration withheld hundreds of millions of dollars from the country.
Monday's presentation is expected to include appearances by Alan Dershowitz, who will argue that impeachable offenses require criminal-like conduct, and Ken Starr, the independent counsel in the Whitewater investigation that led to the impeachment of President Bill Clinton. Many legal scholars reject Dershowitz's arguments, saying the Founding Fathers meant for impeachable offenses to incorporate a broad range of conduct by presidents.

Democrats demand Bolton testify after report his book says Trump tied Ukraine aid to Biden probeDemocrats demand that Bolton testify in the Senate impeachment trial after a NYTimes report Sunday night surfaced new details from Bolton’s upcoming book about the president and Ukraine. Janettesecond Thank god for the STILL free press! If Bolton thinks that if by not testifying he will sell a book then WE MUST BOYCOTT THE BOOK until he testifies. Sure. The timing is perfect. Just as perfect as the timing with Judge kavanaugh. You remember the story how he arraigned gang rape parties when he was 14. He’s not that smart though because if he was a Democrat he would have had an App. Like air B&B

Report: Bolton says Trump tied Ukraine funds to Biden probePresident Trump told his national security adviser he wanted to maintain a freeze on military aid to Ukraine until it launched investigations into his Democratic rivals, according to drafts of John Bolton's forthcoming book, The New York Times reports. He'll sell books but won't voluntarily testify to the truth for the good of the country. That doesn't sound like a patriot to me.
