WATCH: Rep. Jim Jordan’s full questioning of Gordon Sondland | Trump impeachment hearings

Trump's first impeachment - 2020

Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, questioned Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, on Nov. 20, in a public hearing as part of the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump. Sondland testified earlier that there was a “quid pro quo” in which U.S. aid and a White House meeting were contingent on Ukraine agreeing to investigate the 2016 elections and the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, where the son of 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden, Hunter, sat on the board. But Jordan said because the aid was released without an investigation being announced, there was no quid pro quo. U.S. aid for Ukraine was released after a whistleblower sent a complaint to Congress in August.
