Congress is back — and so is the impeachment talk. Today House Dems took a significant step in their investigations into Donald Trump
President Donald Trump's attorneys would be permitted to review some of Congress’s impeachment-related evidence under a set of procedures unveiled Monday by the House Judiciary Committee, part of a plan to spell out the panel’s authorities as it intensifies its consideration of articles of impeachment., obtained by POLITICO, would also allow smaller groups of lawmakers on the Judiciary panel’s subcommittees to consider evidence — a step that could streamline and hasten its review.
Until this week, the committee had been writing in court filings that it is actively considering whether to recommend articles of impeachment against the president, the first such acknowledgment. In addition, Nadler has referred to his committee’s probe as “formal impeachment proceedings.”But Speaker Nancy Pelosi has continued to resist a formal impeachment inquiry, leading to confusion among some House Democrats over the Judiciary panel’s investigation.
Republicans were already accusing Democrats on Monday of trying to circumvent House rules by refusing to hold a full House vote on opening an impeachment inquiry. The measure largely focuses on former special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, which included allegations that Trump sought to obstruct justice by thwarting the probe.
