As of last night the fbi did not want to get into the investigation details, but said that we could expect more to be released about him today.

And, remember, those 31 democrats who are in trump districts in the house are the ones that are going to be sighing the loudest about more articles of impeachment. This is likely just an argument that was being made by the House Counsel in court as a way to emphasize why they still need to get testimony from don mcgahn. The Justice Department is arguing, look, if you already passed articles of impeachment, why do you need to hear from this person as well .
