NEW on 'The Investigation' podcast: Former Republican congressman who helped lead Clinton impeachment says Trump Ukraine call 'very troublesome.'

The Republican governor of Arkansas, who acted as a prosecutor during former President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial, called President Donald Trump’s July phone call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy “very troublesome” but said it does not necessarily rise to the level of an impeachable offense.

When asked whether a censure might be a more appropriate congressional response to the phone call, Hutchinson said he doesn't see censure as a"serious part of the discussion." Throughout the early stages of the impeachment inquiry, Republicans have criticized the way in which the majority has handled the proceedings — so far, they’ve taken place behind closed doors. This week, however, the House will begin holding public hearings. Still, Republicans have also been critical of the formal impeachment procedures, which included the move to public hearings and which were passed by a vote on the House floor last month.

Your headline doesn’t match your quote... FakeNews EpsteinCoverup

😂😂😂😂😂

Bribery is called out in the Constitution as impeachable.

Q

Ukraine has 4th largest lT in the world, spying hub for MI5.MI6, & CIA, used to circumvent the laws of the UK, & America to spy on PRIVATE citizens! Dirty dossier started with British intelligence! Why Russia demonized, Edward Snowden outed the 'PRISM' PROGRAM used in Ukraine!

The phone call was troubling only because of the criminal conduct of members of the Obama administration.

Lying in a civil deposition about a consensual affair is horrible but extorting a foreign government using taxpayer money to get dirt on a political rival harming national security and our election integrity is ok? Asa’s not credible.

Some people are incapable of separating themselves from “Orange man bad,” even some Republicans

But nothin impeachable.. Put the whole story on your headline ABC News! Gutlesspigs

WorldNews Bubba lied under oath. Trump even if he lied wasn't under oath.

Big difference between troublesome and criminal!!! What’s troublesome to you may not be to me, it’s an opinion thing! That’s all this hoax is, difference in policy opinions!!

WorldNews

“Trump robbed a bank and killed a teller. This was abhorrent behavior that I’m really upset about, but it doesn’t reach the level to remove him.” FecklessGOP

And “not impeachable”. You missed that part.

“… but I have not seen anything yet that would lead me to believe you should remove a president from office” From the guy who tried to remove a president from office for a BJ.

**49 days** and still no vote on articles of impeachment. DoNothingDemocrats ImpeachmentHoax

Stop! You protect PEDOS! Carry on!

EpsteinCoverup ExposeABC

Guess lieing about getting BJs is all that counts.

This guy is a globalist Nazi pedophile who is compromised. He was the attorney general when Clinton was running cocaine for the cia into mena. He is a p.o.s. More than like friends of abc who protect pedophiles.

What is his opinion about Benghazi, Hillary's emails, and Obama giving millions to Iran?

Traitors GOP CountryBeforeParty The party that can't tell right from wrong when it's THIS obvious should be removed from our government as thoroughly as possible and banished until they can prove their character has changed or their judgment has improved.

Yes, very troublesome indeed: Trump's Ukraine call will prove disastrous...for the Democrats. The more they toss garbage at Trump, the more the residue of filth that remains on their dirty hands. WHAT FOOLS!

What about the part at the end you completely missed? Lol cmon abc

Thanks for the clear example of cherry picking a headline. Now don't you have an Epstein scandal to cover up?

Epstein was murdered and the state run media is peddling garbage for the circus

GOP Divided on Defense of Trump Over UkraineTop Republicans offered sharply divergent views of President Trump’s interactions with Ukraine, showcasing the challenge to mount a unified defense of the president in advance of public impeachment hearings. SIMPLE those that are receiving a share of the graft and those that aren't. those with morals and those without No, Republicans are united behind President Trump. Americans with morals support President Trump. Top Republikkkans obfuscating for Trump like they did with the Mueller report. That isn't a divergence that is criminally and morally wrong.

Rep. Himes accuses Republicans of a false equivalency between Trump, Biden on UkraineRep.
