Adam Schiff, head of the House Intelligence Committee, suggests impeachment is in order if President Trump pressured Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said impeachment “may be the only remedy” if President Trump pressured Ukraine to investigate one of his 2020 opponents, Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden.

Additionally, critics of the president suspect him of withholding congressionally authorized funds, $250 million in U.S. military aid to Ukraine, in an effort to push a foreign country to investigate a domestic political opponent and his family. Biden on Saturday called for the release of the phone transcript and a congressional investigation, accusing Trump of “violating every basic norm of a president.”

Story continues“The conversation I had was largely congratulatory, was largely corruption, all of the corruption taking place, was largely the fact that we don’t want our people, like Vice President Biden and his son, creating to the corruption already in the Ukraine,” Trump said after suggesting that he mentioned the former vice president and Hunter in a phone call with the leader of Ukraine.

But Schiff disagreed, saying that the details would not fall under executive privilege “if those conversations involve potential corruption or criminality or leverage being used for political advantage against our nation’s interest.
