Remember chairman schiff, the person that the democrats instead of the House Judicial Committee which has spent a full week on this, thats not who has been in charge. They put in charge was the person that got caught with the whistleblower. Have you spoken directly with the whistleblower . No, we have not. Wed like to. That wasnt true. The person that said he had evidence of the first fake impeachment scam, collusion with russia, had evidence of that collusion and didnt have it. The person who in the course of that read into the record the steele dossier because the people needed to know what happened about the truth of what happened. We heard about the truth of what happened with the steele dossier this week when the Inspector General said it was all garbage, rubbish, all made up. Yeah, thatad chairman schiff.

Statements. The whistleblower got caught with chairman schiff. Remember chairman schiff, the person that the democrats instead of the House Judiciary Committee which spent a full week on this, thats not whos been in charge. The person they put in charge was the person that got caught with the whistleblower. Have you spoken directly with the whistleblower . No, we have not. Wed like to. That wasnt true. The person that said he had evidence of the first fake impeachment scam, collusion with russia, had evidence of that collusion and didnt have it. The person who in the course of that read into the record the steele dossier because the people needed to know the truth about what happened. Well, we heard about the truth about the steele dossier this week when the Inspector General told us it was all garbage, rubbish, all made up, yeah, that chairman schiff, and now he got caught not being truthful about
a whistleblower who as i said you the other day didnt Tell The Truth verbally and in wri
deposition, go to the transcript. he said this was future aid, it had nothing to do with running the army right then. in war zones people get hurt and die and russia has invaded the ukraine. they are fighting that. it is a hot war. people will. but to blame this conversation because you have such a weak case that you re going to try and throw that in to scare the american people, that s not right. make a case. have your facts. put it in the articles. when you can t do that, you go in the back room and you start writing articles of impeachment. you say, uh-oh, we got a problem. let s put something in there that all of our conference can get behind because they don t like the president. i yaeld baield back. i move to strike the last word. the gentle lady is recognized. thank you, mr. chairman. i rise to speak in opposition to this amendment. to my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, to remind you
with that, mr. chairman, i yield to the gentleman from rhode island. i thank the gentlelady for yielding. there was a letter signed by more than 500 legal scholars across the spectrum which i d like to read from very briefly. speaking of the president s conduct, they say the president s conduct is precisely the type of threat to our democracy that the founders feared when they included the remedy of peace in the constitution. conduct need not be criminal to be impeachable, the standard here is constitutional. they say it s conduct that corrupts elections. i know my time is about to expire. i yield back. the gentlelady yields back. i recognize myself on the amendment and i yield to mr.
from the chairman and others at the podium i was actually there and was being interviewed and when i heard this one come up and confirm that abuse of power was one of their articles of impeachment it was simply stunning. my first reaction has been made and rung true completely here today by many of the members on the majority including the gentleman from tennessee recently who just confirmed it. abuse of power for articles of impeachment means anything they want it to mean. it is the cart blanche coverage, saying, we don t really have a case but go out and make it up. just go out and say what you don t like. if he didn t say something nice or didn t do a policy you don t like, do this and that s going to cover you, you ll be okay, because remember, this is always about an election. you know how we continue to know this? we keep misquoting the transcript. they deeon t have the facts. it s simple. read it. it s us, our country. if you got a case, make it.
