President Donald Trump alleged that Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) “lied to Congress” when the representative fabricated parts of the released transcript of the call between Trump and Ukranian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“Rep. Adam Schiff fraudulently read to Congress, with millions of people watching, a version of my conversation with the President of Ukraine that doesn’t exist. He was supposedly reading the exact transcribed version of the call, but he completely changed the words to make it sound horrible [and] me sound guilty,” Trump said in a statement early Sept. 27.
