Trump’s call with Ukraine was ‘improper’ says key White House aide

President Trump has condemned the impeachment hearings on Capitol Hill as a “kangaroo court” – as two key White House aides gave their evidence in public today.

Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman told the hearing that what he heard during a phone call between the President and his Ukrainian counterpart had been “improper” – and he had immediately reported it to White House lawyers “out of a sense of duty”.
