Donald Trump is the first U.S. president to be impeached twice. In 2021, he was impeached for inciting the Jan. 6 insurrection in the attack on the U.S. Capitol. In 2020, he was impeached for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress related to a phone call made to the president of Ukraine.

The U.S. House of Representatives is holding open hearings in its impeachment inquiry into President Trump.

Thursday's hearings were scheduled to start at 9 a.m. with testimony from Fiona Hill, a former Russia specialist on the National Security Council, and David Holmes, a State Department aide.

Wednesday's hearings included testimony Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, Laura Cooper, a Defense Department deputy assistant secretary, and the State Department undersecretary for political affairs, David Hale.

Sondland's testimony, especially, was hotly watched. He was a former top donor to Trump's inaugural committee and amended his closed-door testimony to say he personally told a Zelenskiy aide that American aide was linked to investigations.

Alexander Vindman, a Ukraine expert on the National Security Council; Jennifer Williams, a foreign service officer detailed to the staff of Vice President Mike Pence; Kurt Volker, former special envoy to Ukraine; and Tim Morrison, a former National Security Council aide.
