placed on the intelligence committee and maybe that will happen before next week. but that is a curious thing of why not wanting special envoy kurt vogel to be the first to testify in open hearings when he was the one that was deposed. any thoughts on that? well some thoughts that the democrats might think that bill taylor or other officials might have better testimony for their narrative. but remember the president this morning tweeted out a thank you to colt mike kurt volker because it appears that he is backing up some of the president s account there was not a quid pro quo. what i think is very important are a couple things. number one when you see what adam schiff and the democrats are trying to do in the release of the transcript, they say right at the top in their press release the testimony of ambassador taylor, a west point grad, vietnam vet and nonpartisan diplomat, they are saying all of that dana of course because there narrative,

democrats say they are fast tracking the impeachment push sending subpoenas to the secretary of state and prepping hearings for next week. republican jim jordan standing by for reaction. welcome to fox news at night. we go straight to jillian turner working her intel sources. reporter: breaking tonight donald trump s point man on ukraine is resigning, special envoy kurt vogel stepping down and collaborated. into investigating hunter biden. volker is a key figure in the impeachment probe laned in the whistleblower report, and summoned to capitol hill. this comes a day after donald trump s personal attorney told fox news, one of his main conduits to the ukrainian government. the whistle blower falsely alleges i was operating on my own. i wasn t operating on my own.
