0:08 – Impeachment Watch Live from Capitol Hill with Mitch Jeserich
Today is the second to last day of House hearings on impeachment, and under major media scrutiny – John Bolton did not appear. Two others did testify: first, Jennifer Williams, the top aid of Vice President Mike Pence on what his offices knew. Then, Lt Colonel Alexander Vindman appeared again, to go over his transcript, perhaps to revise it. Next week, the first public impeachment hearings will take place on November 13th with William Taylor and George Kent, and Nov 15th with Marie Yavanovich.
