President Trump blasted out a series of fiery statements on Twitter Tuesday morning, as a White House official is set to testify behind closed doors on the president’s July phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

According to a report by Fox News, “Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who serves as a director on the National Security Council (NSC), is scheduled to testify before the House Intelligence, Oversight, and Foreign Affairs committees Tuesday morning. His prepared opening statement, obtained by Fox News, expresses concern over Trump’s request to have Ukraine investigate political opponents, but Trump dismissed him as one of a collection of witnesses he does not even know.”

The president started his Tuesday morning Twitterstorm by re-tweeting a statement he had posted Monday night:

The only crimes in the Impeachment Hoax were committed by Shifty Adam Schiff, when he totally made up my phone conversation with the Ukrainian President and read it to Congress, together with numerous others on Shifty’s side. Schiff should be Impeached, and worse!

Trump then shared a response he had given to Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham, and added the following:

Why are people that I never even heard of testifying about the call. Just READ THE CALL TRANSCRIPT AND THE IMPEACHMENT HOAX IS OVER! Ukrain said NO PRESSURE.

The president responded to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who had stated, “It’s been 34 days since Nancy Pelosi unilaterally declared her impeachment inquiry. Today’s backtracking is an admission that this process has been botched from the start. We will not legitimize the Schiff/Pelosi sham impeachment.”

“Correct, a total scam!” Trump added.

President Trump then fired off several tweets blasting the Democrats and the “Never Trumper” Republicans, all determined to oust him from office. He wrote:

Where’s the Whistleblower? Just read the Transcript, everything else is made up garbage by Shifty Schiff and the Never Trumpers!

Trump added that those seeking to impeach him are completely ignoring the tax cuts, military improvements, and other successes of his administration:

The Do Nothing Democrats are working hard to make everyone forget the Best Economy Ever, the monumental weekend raid, Tax Cuts, the Rebuilding of our Military, etc. The Impeachment Hoax is a disgrace. Read the transcript!

In another tweet, Trump added:

How many more Never Trumpers will be allowed to testify about a perfectly appropriate phone call when all anyone has to do is READ THE TRANSCRIPT! I knew people were listening in on the call (why would I say something inappropriate?), which was fine with me, but why so many?

Trump referred again to Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who is set to testify behind closed doors Tuesday morning that he had “concerns” about the president’s phone call with the Ukrainian president. He tweeted:

Supposedly, according to the Corrupt Media, the Ukraine call “concerned” today’s Never Trumper witness. Was he on the same call that I was? Can’t be possible! Please ask him to read the Transcript of the call. Witch Hunt!
