I took a minute to take a look at the dictionary to say what are some of the other ideas and themes behind the word invincible. And what stood out for me was indestructible, unbeatable, and absolutely too powerful to overcome. All right yeah thats right. [applause] those are fighting words. So i asked myself, so what exactly are we fighting for . So i have four principles that i think that were fighting for.

Their impeachment inquiry. In a Public Statement led by House Intelligence Committee chairman adam schiff, key said as we move toward the new public phase of the impeachment inquiry, the American Public will begin to see for themselves the evidence that committees have collected. They go on to say the transcript of interviews with the ambassadors demonstrate clearly how President Trump approve the removal of a highly respected diplomat based on public falsehoods and smears against his character.
