🔥It’sGameOn!🔥

The House has opened an impeachment investigation against Trump

The House filed a petition to access to redacted portions of the MR re GJ testimony re Trump’s knowledge of criminal acts, RU interference in the 2016Elex election & RU connex to his campaign.
🔥It’sGameOn2🔥

Finally, the committee seeks grand jury testimony about actions taken by former WH counsel Donald McGahn; this last request probably anticipates the committee’s rumored plans to seek an order compelling McGahn to testify.

🔥It’sGameOn3🔥

It is settled law that House committees can obtain GJ materials as part of the impeachment inquiry.

The Constitution’s text and structure — supported by judicial precedent & prior practice — show that impeachment is a process, not a single vote & IT IS UNDERWAY!
🔥It’sGameOn4🔥.

Article I vests Congress with “all legislative Powers.” The House, in turn, enjoys the “sole Power of impeachment.”

The House’s “sole Power of impeachment” is more than final floor votes on articles of impeachment, it’s the power to probe impeachable offenses.
🔥It’sGameOn5🔥

The Constitution imposes few limits on how the House exercises this “sole Power.”

It implicitly gives the House the tools it needs to investigate (subpoenas & contempt citations) & it vests the House with authority to “determine the Rules of its Proceedings.”
🔥It’sGameOn6🔥

The House has near-total control over the procedures by which it activates & wields the impeachment power.

We intend to obtain the add’l underlying evidence, as well as enforce subpoenas & broaden our inv’ns include conflicts of interest & financial misconduct.
🔥It’sGameOn7🔥

“The House must have access to all the relevant facts and consider whether to exercise all its full Article I powers, including a constitutional power of the utmost gravity — recommendation of articles of impeachment.”
🔥It’sGameOn8🔥

The AppCt addressed their predecessors had permitted the Nixon-era Judiciary Cmte to see such GJ material.

Impeachment, which culminates with a trial in the Senate, is effectively a judicial proceeding, thus disclosure of GJ material is deemed lawful.

Ironically FoxNews frames the key points Mueller made succinctly. @cnn @msnbc are too busy complaining about Mueller’s lawyerly delivery, rather than the key points. This weekend are featuring Trumps Provokatsiya & wall. Gah! You will be held accountable.
