Axios: Trump pins Ukraine call on Energy Secretary Rick Perry

Trump blames Perry for Ukraine call

President Trump told House Republicans that he made his now infamous phone call to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the urging of Energy Secretary Rick Perry — a call Trump claimed he didn’t even want to make.

Behind the scenes: Trump made these comments during a conference call with House members on Friday, according to 3 sources on the call.

  • Per the sources, Trump rattled off the same things he has been saying publicly — that his call with Zelensky was "perfect"and he did nothing wrong.
  • But he then threw Perry into the mix and said something to the effect of: "Not a lot of people know this but, I didn't even want to make the call. The only reason I made the call was because Rick asked me to. Something about an LNG [liquified natural gas] plant," one source said, recalling the president's comments. 2 other sources confirmed the first source's recollection.

Impeachment inquiry: Vice President Mike Pence gets document request from House Democrats

Mike Penceasked for documents by House CommitteeHouse Democrats on Friday asked Vice President Mike Pence to turn over a host of documents by Oct. 15 as part of their impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.

The Democrats said in their letter to Pence that failure to comply will be evidence of obstruction of the House’s impeachment inquiry and “may be used as an adverse inference against you and the president.”

The chairmen of the House committees leading the investigation said they're  investigating the extent to which Trump "jeopardized national security by pressing Ukraine to interfere with our 2020 election and by withholding security assistance provided by Congress to help Ukraine counter Russian aggression, as well as any efforts to cover up these matters."

Revealed: Trump’s Wildlife Service pick has ties to anti-animal protection groups

Aurelia Skipwith

Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the US Fish and Wildlife Service has links to powerful agricultural interests opposed to protections for endangered species she would oversee, the Guardian has learned.

Aurelia Skipwith, who is already a top official at the interior department, formerly worked at the agrochemical giant Monsanto.

New revelations show she also has ties to the Westlands Water District, a political powerhouse with a history of chafing against Endangered Species Act regulations that can interfere with farmers’ demands for water in California.

Yet a Senate committee approved Skipwith’s nomination Wednesday in a party-line vote of 11-10.
