On the recordJanuary 15, 2020
After a long, embarrassing month, the House will finally transmit the Articles of Impeachment against President Trump to the United States Senate. Yet I understand Speaker Pelosi and her managers will continue to push for witnesses in the Senate trial because, in their words, they want the facts. That claim is nonsense. House Democrats blocked the testimony of the whistleblower, DNC staffer Alexandra Chalupa, Nellie Ohr with Fusion GPS, and, of course, the two gentlemen pictured to my left, Devon Archer and Hunter Biden. In reality, the Democrats' entire case depended on hiding the facts. As more facts emerged last year, their case collapsed. Public support for their impeachment fell as the weakness of their case was exposed. I remind my majority that what is good for the goose is good for the gander. I predict House Democrats will not fare as well blocking these witnesses in Mitch McConnell's United States Senate. ____________________
