• Fiona Hill, a former top administration adviser on Russian affairs, said during her congressional testimony that she's been targeted by aggressive harassment during the impeachment inquiry. 
• The transcript of Hill's testimony, which she made behind closed doors in mid-October, was released on Friday by House investigators leading the ongoing impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.
• Hill told investigators that she's received death threats and calls from people shouting obscenities. In one instance, her neighbors told her that someone came to her house and "hammer[ed]" on her door. 
• Hill said the harassment was in part provoked by "anti-Semitic" conspiracy theories alleging that she and others are working with billionaire Democratic donor George Soros to undermine Trump.
