Rep. Jeff Van Drew (D-N.J.), who represents a congressional district that voted in favor of President Trump, said that diplomat Bill Taylor’s testimony in front of the House Intelligence Committee during its impeachment inquiry is “hearsay.”

“It’s hearsay,” he told reporters after the hearing on Wednesday. “It’s really difficult dealing with this because it’s he said-she said.”
