Former national security adviser John Bolton wrote in a new book manuscript that President Donald Trump directed the withholding of military aid to Ukraine.

"I got to watch enough."

"Witnesses should have something to do with and direct knowledge of the charges against the president."

Senator Chuck Schumer condemned the White House's impeachment defense after the first day of the trial.

McConnell said he would set aside any Democratic amendments to subpoena witnesses and documents at the start of the trial.

"We should have the opportunity to present the case as the House chooses to present the case."

"It’s clear McConnell is hell-bent on making it much more difficult to get witnesses and documents."

"We believe (it) will get 51 votes that is needed to pass."

On Tuesday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer responded to Trump's decision to tweet a doctored photo of him.

"And that’s why I think he’s gotta go — in an election.”

"... parroting Iranian talking points..."

"John Bolton is a key witness."

"Given the importance of this additional evidence, it’s understandable that Speaker Pelosi has delayed transmitting articles of impeachment until the contours of a Senate trial are known."

"There have been several crucial disclosures of evidence that appear to further incriminate the president."

"That's obviously a non-starter."
