In this country, the President cannot do whatever he wants. In this country, no one, not even the President, is above the law.

If the President's worried about our hiring any former administration people, maybe he should work on being a better employer.

The essence of an impeachable offense is a President's decision to sacrifice the national interest for his own private ends.

Based on the evidentiary record, that is what President Trump has done.

The very idea that a President might seek the aid of a foreign government in his reelection campaign would have horrified them.

President Trump did not merely seek to benefit from foreign interference in our elections.

Ladies and gentlemen, the storm in which we find ourselves today was set in motion by President Trump.

Rudy Giuliani had only one client in the administration, and that was Donald Trump.

We know that in the words of Dr. Hill, the President was having people do a domestic political errand for him, that errand being chasing dirt on Joe Biden, using the power of his office and taxpayer resources to try to coerce Ukraine into…

If the Republicans are prepared to take that position, then they are inviting abuse from a president of either party.

The evidence is quite overwhelming that the President of the United States used the power of his office, $400 million of taxpayer military assistance to help an ally fighting the Russians as well as a desperately sought meeting in the…

We are reporting what Ambassador Sondland testified to, and this is an issue that we are also working on further evidence of, but this was the direct testimony of Ambassador Sondland that he raised this issue with the Vice President that…

You can't lean on a foreign power to meddle in a domestic election.

This president, this new president who is negotiating with a far superior power that has invaded his country is going to negotiation with Putin over how to resolve this conflict.

The president has to be held accountable if he does something like this.

It was bad judgment to put him in the middle of it. And obviously, Sondland wanted everyone to know this was Rudy's show, not mine.

Are we prepared to say, well, you know, I guess that's what we should expect of a president?

The withholding of military assistance to get these investigations, which you now have acknowledged Ambassador Volker, was wrong for the president to request.

I appreciate also that you were able to debunk, I hope for the last time, the idea that Joe Biden did something wrong when he, in accordance with U.S. policy, sought to replace a corrupt prosecutor.

Some of us here take witness intimidation very, very seriously.

Marie Yovanovitch, as you sit here testifying, the President is attacking you on Twitter.

I was mocking the President, and just as clearly the President doesn't like being mocked.

For this President, they're going to destroy what America stands for in the world.
