Some of Trump's biggest allies on Capitol Hill have made it clear that Wednesday's hearing will be filled with spectacle and arguments over procedure.
The House Judiciary Committee will return to the spotlight Wednesday with its first impeachment hearing on the Ukraine scandal, a public showdown that's likely to feature feuds between Republicans and Democrats.
"The evidence shows that President Trump has a long-standing, deep-seated skepticism of Ukraine due to its history of pervasive corruption," the report states. It went on to say that Trump had"legitimate concerns" about Ukraine and corruption, and that his concerns about the involvement of Joe Biden's son, Hunter, in a Ukrainian gas company, Burisma, were"valid."
Biggs, the chairman of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, is just one of several Republicans on the Judiciary panel who are known for going to bat for Trump. The panel also includes Representatives Jim Jordan , Matt Gaetz , Louie Gohmert , Doug Collins , John Ratcliffe and Debbie Lesko .

"Throughout this hurried and partisan impeachment process, I have consistently requested mere fairness from members of the majority. An equal distribution of experts for the December 4 hearing would be a small concession to demonstrate to the American people this impeachment inquiry is not merely political theater," Collins added.
