"A top administration official, one, the, we asked, to say, stop-the-help-in 90 minutes after the trump suit is called Zelensky and said keep it hush, hush. What you need to make a request for a witness?"

"Until we hear from The Witnesses , until we added the documents to accept The American people's right that the blocking of their statement, the aid is a cover, plain and simple," Mr Schumer.

"So I'll close with the words: President Trump, let the E-Mails, let The Witnesses , The Witnesses , what are you afraid of?"
