US President Donald Trump is seething over an impeachment inquiry into his conduct after Democrats subpoenaed the White House about contacts with Ukraine and he signalled his administration would not cooperate. GETTY IMAGES In a letter to the White House, Democrats said US President Trump had "chosen the path of defiance, obstruction, and cover-up". Trump, who has described his conduct as "perfect," said Friday he would formally object to Congress's impeachment inquiry, even as he acknowledged that Democrats "have the votes" to proceed. White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham derided the subpoena as coming from a Democratic "kangaroo court." The release followed a 10-hour interview with one of the diplomats, Kurt Volker, who stepped down as special envoy to Ukraine after the impeachment inquiry had begun.
