In his opening statements during an impeachment hearing on the afternoon of Nov. 19, Rep. Adam Schiff, the House Intelligence Committee chair, outlined what led up to, and what followed, a July 25 phone call in which Trump asked the president of Ukraine to investigate former vice president and 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter. Specifically, Schiff detailed the role Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, Energy Secretary Rick Perry and Kurt Volker, the former U.S. special envoy to Ukraine, had in the process. Volker and Tim Morrison, a former White House official who served on the National Security Council, testified during the hearing before the House Intelligence Committee as part of the impeachment probe into Trump.
