Set to give testimony today on Capitol Hill are Dr. Fiona Hill, former Senior Director for Europe and Russia on the National Security Council, and David Holmes, Political Counselor at the U.S Embassy in Kiev, Ukraine. Hill and Holmes will deliver opening statements, if they so choose, and then will be questioned in 45-minute blocks of time from each side.
The Democrats and Republicans can choose their respective counsels to do the questioning. That is a break from a typical hearing, in which members questioned witnesses in five-minute increments, alternating between Dems and Gop reps based on seniority. That still will happen — but it will only come later in the hearing.

The House impeachment inquiry into President Donald J. Trump is again being broadcast live this week, with three days of public hearings. This week’s hearings began on Tuesday, November 19 and will end on Thursday, November 21. There will be a total of five hearings this week, taking place in both the morning and the afternoon.
Investigators for the House of Representatives are looking into whether Trump abused his public office for private gain, specifically in his dealings with Ukraine. From attempting to pressure the Ukranian President Volodymyr Zelensky into investigating former Vice President Joe Biden for corruption and asking Zelensky to investigate the conspiracy theory that it was Ukraine than interfered in the 2016 election — on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s campaign — to White House officials concealing records of phone correspondence on July 25 between Trump and Zelensky, a number of government officials already testified about these impeachable offenses to Congress behind closed doors.

Well, the ranking Gop member of the House Intelligence Committee was very wrong in his characterization Tuesday of the dip between Day 1 and Day 2 of the widely televised inquiry. However, when it comes to the long third day of the probe into Donald Trump’s alleged leveraging of millions in aid to Ukraine for domestic political concerns, the highly partisan Rep.

Updated with schedules for Week 2 hearings: The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence will continue public hearings in the impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump for a second week beginning Tuesday. Last week’s three witnesses marked the first such hearings to take place since President Bill Clinton was impeached in 1998 and only the fourth time against a sitting president in U.S. history.
The House of Representatives is probing charges that Trump attempted to coerce Ukraine, a foreign government, to launch an investigation of political rival Joe Biden and his son. The hearings could wrap before the end of the year.
Like last week, cable networks are planning full-court coverage for scheduled hearings this Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (see the breakdown below). Most broadcast networks plan to break in to regularly scheduled programming, while offering uninterrupted coverage via their digital outlets.
Deadline will also live-stream all the hearings this week.

Heading into a week featuring star witness Gordon Sondland and with Donald Trump claiming this morning he might show up too, the start of the impeachment hearings of the 45th President of the United States may be remembered more as a stage setter than a showstopper.
However, over two days of partisan jousting, three career diplomats, social media salvos from the ex-Celebrity Apprentice host and wall-to-wall coverage, it has proven to be a fairly well watched stage setter after all – despite the White House line that the whole thing was a bore.
Coming off a debut viewership of around 13.8 million over nearly a dozen cable and broadcast outlets on November 13, the November 15 sworn testimony of pink slipped Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch earned praise from many non-gop and Oval Office quarters.

It’s a quiet weekend at the White House. No golf, no public activities, no imminent crisis demanding immediate attention. So that leaves plenty of time to catch up on the Sunday political shows and tweeting for President Donald Trump
Today’s early messaging focused on the fake news and the fake impeachment inquiry, to borrow from the Commander-in-Tweet’s descriptions. It also praised Rep. Elise Stefanik’s canny questioning during the inquiry, Florida attorney general Pam Bondi, and Fox News host Maria Bartiromo. President Trump also generously acknowledged that former VP Joe Biden is not a “rabid dog. He is actually somewhat better than that.”
We’ll update the communications as more roll in. The tweetstorm so far:

Republicans & others must remember, the Ukrainian President and Foreign Minister both said that there was no pressure placed on them whatsoever.

It was just by a hair, but the debut of the impeachment hearings against Donald Trump yesterday beat Robert Mueller’s testimony before Congress earlier this year …barely.

Having said that with Nielsen numbers from Fox News Channel. MSNBC, ABC, CNN, CBS and NBC now in, the 10 Am – 3:30 Pm Et hearing stumbled against another big ticket testimony. The Wednesday event, that the former Celebrity Apprentice host insists he didn’t watch, was down a hard 32% from the audience that eyed pink slipped FBI Director James Comey’s appearance before our elected representatives in June 2017.
