First, his a military aid to ukraine was contingent on that country investigating the democrats. It was a move that stunned even the president s only legal team. The president also decided to hold the next g7 summit at his own golf resort, in effect, using his office to direct a massive contract to himself in reporter if it was, norah, it left the president s own lawyers mystified and blindsided, according to our source. Co tonight, mulvaney is already trying to walk his comments back, saying in a statement that he was somehow misconstrued. I have news for everybody get over it. Theres going to be political influence in foreign policy. Reporter the president s acting chief of staff, mick mulvaney, admitted today that there was a quid pro quo involving u. S. Military aid to ukraine, but not, he insisted, for the reason everyone thinks. The money held up had absolutely nothing to do with biden. And that was the point i made to you. Reporter instead, he said, President Trump put a temporary hold on millions in aid to get ukraine to investigate a debunked theory about a hidden server containing Hillary Clintons emails. Look back to what happened in 2016, certainly was part of the thing that he was worried about repor b t hprt asked ukrainian counterpart to investigate both the crowdstrike server, and former Vice President joe biden, his potential campaign rival. Things have just gone from very, very bad to much, much worse. Reporter mulvaneys comments stunned impeachment investigators on capitol hill. New jersey democrat tom malinowski. It has never happened in the history of this country, as far as i know, to condition Security Assistance on a personal political favor for the president of the United States. And theyve just admitted thats exactly what they did. Reporter another central figure testified behind closed doors today. Gordon sondland, the u. S. Ambassador to the european union, said he was disappointed when the president directed him to work with his personal lawyer, rudy giuliani, whose agenda included an effort to prompt the ukrainians to investigate Vice President biden. The white house is saying this is what happens in politics all the time. Get over it. That may be true, but not in america. Odonnell and, nancy, i have to ask you tonight, what did the Justice Department have to say about all this . Reporter well, norah, were told by sources there that justice officials were angry and utterly confused by something that mulvaney said. He suggested that the president just wanted ukraine to cooperate with a u. S. Investigation into the 2016 election. Well, d. O. J. Fired off a statement saying that, if the white house was withholding aid in regards to any investigation at d. O. J. , that is news to us. Odonnell hard to believe whats happened today, nancy.

Major garrett on why some say the president is committing a double bogey by profiting from his position of power. Doral was by far anesical epcility for this meeting. Reporter amid accusations of conflict of interest, acting chief of staff, mick mulvaney, asserted hosting the global ic somic summit at the trump owned doral resort was not prlegal or inappropriate bec president will not reap a profit. Theyre doing this at cost. As a result, it actually has been dramatically cheaper for us to do it at doral. Reporter the white house narrowed its final list to four sites, including two locations in utah, and another in hawaii. Mulvaney said it was mr. Trump who proposed holding the g7 at his club. A senior official said mr. Trump took a very personal interest in doral hosting the summit. Mr. Trump said this in august its not about me. Its about getting the right location. I think its very important. Reporter but business at doral is struggling. According to the washington post, dorals profits dropped nearly 70 between 2015 and 2017.

Reporter the white house fro comes amid charges from enesident trump that joe bidens son profited from his Fathers Office by serving on the board of a Ukrainian Energy company. If theres one difference you look at been the trump family truthe biden family, the trump family made their money before they went into politics. Reporter the constitution prohibits officeholders from accepting any present or emolument from a foreign state or payments from the federal government. He continues to own that company and to benefit from it. Theres no question that the federal government is going to be paying him a lot of money, which is against the constitution. Am reporter the president s utgal team was not consulted about this public briefing announcing doral as the site of the g7 summit and would have much preferred a paper statement, fearing inevitable questions about ukraine to the ineing chief of staff.
