President Trump just tweeted that he authorized the release of the transcript of the controversial Ukraine call at the center of calls for impeachment proceedings by House Democrats.
President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he has authorized the release Wednesday of a complete trancript of his phone call with Ukraine's president.
Shortly before his call with Ukraine's leader, Trump had ordered a hold on $400 million in military aid to that country. The nature of that call — during which Trump talked about former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter — has spurred calls by an increasing number of House Democrats for impeachment proceedings against Trump to begin.
