Good evening with the impeachment trial looming, though no date said for it to actually begin.

Tonight, evidence the Trump administration does not want it to see.

Previously hidden contents of the internal emails, including one, that makes it clear

the President of the United States directly ordered the Central Act in the Central Alligation

against him with holding military aid for Ukraine allegedly to extract Ukrainian help

and dirtying up Joe Biden.

Now it took a lawsuit and a judge's order for the Center for Public Integrity to first

obtain these emails and even then, as you can see, some were so heavily redacted that

they were essentially meaningless.

But now, an online forum called Just Security, which is based in New York University's

recenter on law and security, has viewed the unblacked out versions of those emails.

Now what they found, it amplifies recent reporting from obscene and others about just

how concerned and suspicious senior government officials were that the aid freeze to Ukraine

was against the law, or as the former top US diplomat in Ukraine put it at the time, just

plain wrong.

As the committee is aware, I wrote that withholding security assistance in exchange for help with

the domestic political campaign in the United States would be crazy.

I believe that then and I believe it now.

But he, of course, testified to Congress, many of the people in these emails that were

now seeing they did not and some were being blocked by the White House from telling what

they know and what they know is probably an awful lot, which is why this new reporting

is so important.
