At least eight current and former officials are set to testify this week in the impeachment inquiry against President Trump.
Jennifer Williams is set to testify Tuesday.
Williams is currently serving as a special advisor to Vice President Mike Pence for Europe and Russia.
In a transcript released this weekend, Williams, who listened to the July 25 phone call between Trump and the Ukrainian president, told impeachment investigators Trump’s request for specific investigations struck her as “unusual and inappropriate.”
Sources say staffers in Pence’s office have made a concerted effort to distance Pence from Williams, releasing a statement emphasizing “Jennifer is a State Department employee.”
And in a surprising move, Trump tweeted that he would strongly consider testifying himself.
The tweet was in response to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi inviting the President to testify on his own behalf, either in front of Congress or in writing.
