After vowing not to cooperate with a “kangaroo court,” the president has largely failed to prevent current and former administration members from spending hours with Democrats seeking to impeach him.

The White House on Monday said President Trump “strongly condemns” a fake video depicting him killing members of the news media and political rivals.

The hiring of Mr. Gowdy and its quick reversal offer a public glimpse into the turmoil in the White House as it struggles to decide how to respond to impeachment.

Prosecutors are investigating whether the president’s lawyer broke laws meant to prevent covert foreign influence on the government.

The decision to block Gordon D. Sondland, the United States ambassador to the European Union, was made hours before he was scheduled to speak as part of the House’s impeachment inquiry.

The official, a member of the intelligence community, was interviewed by the inspector general to corroborate the original whistle-blower’s account.

President Trump made a similar, but private, request of the president of Ukraine, an episode that has prompted an impeachment inquiry.

The president’s brazen attempt at cheating has taken “decide it at the ballot box” off the menu. Impeachment is imperative.

Thomas P. Bossert, President Trump’s first homeland security adviser, said he was “deeply disturbed” that Mr. Trump had urged Ukraine to investigate Democrats.

The president said he “deserved” to meet his accuser who filed a formal whistle-blower complaint after a call with Ukraine’s leader.
