The House Rules Committee is having a meeting right now to mark up the impeachment inquiry resolution.
.@RepMcGovern lays out how Trump has obstructed justice, tried to intimidate witnesses and refused to give documents to Congress, which led to the need for the impeachment inquiry resolution.
.@RepMcGovern reads out the beginning of the impeachment inquiry resolution: "...inquiry into whether sufficient grounds exist for the House of Representatives to exercise its Constitutional power to impeach Donald John Trump, President of the United States of America"
Reading through the resolution @RepDLesko complains that it gives @RepAdamSchiff the power to determine if GOP witnesses are relevant. She rolls her eyes and says "that's not fair." Reminder: Republicans invited pundit Candace Owens to attack Dems at a hearing on terrorism.
Republicans have a bad track record of inviting relevant witnesses for testimony. shareblue.com/candace-owens-…
.@RepRaskin (who was a constitutional law professor) shoots down Republican objections to multiple committees being involved in the impeachment inquiry by explaining "if this is a fishing expedition, there's a lot of fish and there might be some whales out in the water there."
