Mike Pence refuses to turn over requested documents
The White House has said it will not cooperate with an investigation it considers unfair and illegitimate, a claim it bases in part on the fact that the House has not formally voted to begin impeachment proceedings.
"Please know that if the Committees wish to return to the regular order of legitimate legislative oversight requests, and the Committees have appropriate requests for information solely in the custody of the Office of the Vice President," Morgan wrote,"we are prepared to work with you in a manner consistent with well-established bipartisan constitutional protections and a respect for the separation of powers.
“There’s no requirement that we have a vote so at this time we will not be having a vote,” Pelosi said. Democrats are investigating any role Pence may have played in President Donald Trump's efforts to pressure the Ukrainian president to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, as well as a separate conspiracy theory related to interference in the 2016 elections.
The Post said Pence's national security adviser monitored Trump's July call with Zelensky but didn't hear anything he felt should be relayed to the vice president.The whistleblower complaint that sparked the impeachment inquiry by disclosing the call alleged that Trump instructed Pence to cancel plans to attend Zelensky’s May inauguration, a detail given in the context of Trump wanting to wait to see how the new leader “chose to act” in office.
