Trump bars envoy's testimony, escalating impeachment fightThe Trump administration barred US European Union Ambassador Sondland from appearing before a House panel. President Trump called the impeachment probe a “kangaroo court” while Adam Schiff called Sondland's barring 'evidence' of obstruction of Congress. Is anyone else about sick of all of this?
