Heinrich Questions House Managers on Foreign Interference During Impeachment Trial

U.S. Senator Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) joins U.S. Senators Mark Warner (D-Va.), Michael Bennet (D-Colo.), and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) in asking the following question to the House Managers during the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump: "Our intelligence community and law enforcement leadership unanimously concluded Russia interfered in the 2016 election and that Russia continues those efforts toward the 2020 election. The Muller Report and the Senate Intelligence Committee reached the same conclusion. Yesterday, the president's counsel said that foreign election interference could be legal if it's related to credible information. Does this mean that it's proper for the president to accept or encourage Russia, China, or other countries to produce damaging intelligence or information targeting his political opponents as long as he deems it to be from 'credible information?'"
