Democrats are obliging the US Secretary of Energy to provide documents under the investigation to isolate Trump

WASHINGTON - #Democratic lawmakers demanded Thursday that US Energy
Secretary Rick Perry provide them with documents as part of an investigation to isolate President Donald #Trump .

The chairpersons of three House committees sent an official memo to Perry requiring him to submit these documents to them by October 18.

"If you refuse to comply with this memorandum, even at the request of the president or the White House, it will be a sign of obstructing the work of Congress and can be used against you and (the president)," said Eliot Engel, head of intelligence committees and foreign affairs, Eliot Engel.

“Reports have recently raised questions about any possible role for you in conveying the president's message to his Ukrainian counterpart,” they said, referring to the #telephone #conversation between Donald Trump and Voldemir Zelinski.

Zelinsky announced Thursday that he had not been "blackmailed" by Trump, who is suspected in the United States of suspending military assistance to #Kiev in exchange for investigating the son of his political rival Joe Biden.
