BREAKING: Mulvaney acknowledges Trump held up Ukraine
aid for political reasons
Acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney on Thursday acknowledged that President Donald Trump held up Ukraine aid partly over a conspiracy theory involving the 2016 election.
"We do that all the time," he told reporters at a rare briefing. "Get over it. There’s going to be political influence in foreign policy," he added.
The question of whether the aid was held up for political reasons is at the heart of the Democrats' impeachment inquiry.
