Military Aid

The president was playing golf with professional John Daly while officials were trying to set up a call to have the aid released, according to The New York Times.

The Center for Public Integrity sought more than 100 pages of documents from the Department of Defense and White House Office of Budget and Management, much of which came back heavily redacted.

At least 13 men were killed in fighting in the east of the country between July 18—when the aid freeze was communicated to the State and Defense departments—and its release on September 11.

The two men met on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly amid allegations that Trump asked Zelensky to investigate accusations of corruption against 2020 rival Joe Biden.

Konstantin Kosachev also said that the investigation "does not add trust in the sincerity of these impeachment initiators."

"That doesn't look like good timing to a lot of people," Steve Doocy said.

On Monday, the president tried to paint the scandal as a media-driven attack and again denied any wrongdoing.

Trump has reportedly ordered his national security team to review some $250 million in military aid to Ukraine, which is fighting pro-Moscow separatists in the east of the country.
