On December 10, the two articles were publicly released. Article I, “Abuse of Power,” outlined Trump’s Ukraine scheme, characterizing the investigations the president demanded of Zelensky as an effort to influence the 2020 election on his behalf and his withholding of the military aid to Ukraine in furtherance of those investigations as a misuse of official resources. Article II, “Obstruction of Congress,” charged the president with directing “unprecedented, categorical, and indiscriminate defiance of subpoenas” and undermining the principles of “constitutional governance.”[45]
