Bureaucrats Fail to Respond to Ratcliffe Question ‘Where Is the Impeachable Offense?’

BY ALANA MASTRANGELO, 13 Nov 2019

Neither acting United States Ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor nor Assistant Secretary in the European and Eurasian Bureau George Kent answered Representative John Ratcliffe (R-TX)’s direct question about what was “impeachable” about President Donald Trump’s routine phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“So, in this impeachment hearing today where we impeach presidents for treason or bribery or other high crimes, where is the impeachable offense in that call?” asked Rep. Ratcliffe of Taylor and Kent.

“Are either of you here today to assert there was an impeachable offense in that call?” added Ratcliffe.

The representative spoke to Taylor and Kent during the House Intelligence Committee’s inaugural public hearing of the impeachment inquiry into President Trump on Wednesday.

Both bureaucrats responded by saying nothing, creating a moment of deafening silence in the room.

“Shout it out. Anyone?” probed Ratcliffe during the moment of silence.
