A copy of the report outlining evidence gathered in the Trump impeachment inquiry was published by House Democrats today.
The House Intelligence Committee has released its report outlining evidence gathered so far in the impeachment process against President Donald Trump as the inquiry rolls on following the Thanksgiving recess.
"Speaker Pelosi, Chairman Schiff, and House Democrats seek to impeach President Trump—not because they have proof of a high crime or misdemeanor, but because they disagreed with the President's actions and his policies," the minority counter-report concluded in its executive summary. Fiona Hill, former National Security Council Russia expert, center right, and David Holmes, counselor for political affairs at the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, center left, testify during a House Intelligence Committee impeachment inquiry hearing on Capitol Hill November 21, 2019 in Washington, D.C.The panel announced Monday that four expert legal witnesses will appear before lawmakers on the committee to discuss the constitutional grounds for impeachment.
Cipollone wrote:"We cannot fairly be expected to participate in a hearing while the witnesses are yet to be named and while it remains unclear whether the Judiciary Committee will afford the President a fair process through additional hearings."More importantly, an invitation to an academic discussion with law professors does not begin to provide the President with any semblance of a fair process.
