The first Ukraine whistleblower has offered through their legal team to answer congressional Republicans' written questions directly to them and under penalty of perjury, bypassing Democrats who control the impeachment process, attorney Mark Zaid confirmed to ABC News on Sunday.

The call prompted the House and Speaker Nancy Pelosi to launch an impeachment inquiry in the following days.
