I was a congressional intern on Capitol Hill when September 11 happened, and I saw my colleagues go to the Capitol steps and sing, in a bipartisan fashion, ``God Bless America.'' I saw a generation of people go into service because of what…
an impeachment inquiry would not prohibit the inquiring body from looking at financial compromise.
There were multiple contacts with Trump campaign officials that there were indictments, there were prosecutions.
It's important to, again, I think as part of your authorities, to examine what happened, to see if in fact the laws were too weak.
A fair reading of Volume I of the report would be that the Trump campaign knew about the Russian interference, welcomed it, embraced it, gave them internal information, and knew it was going to help Donald Trump win the election.
Obstruction of justice, certainly under the Nixon hearings, was important enough to be the very first article of impeachment.
I am sorry that it is something our government was responsible for. And Mitch McConnell may be right that no one alive is responsible for what happened then, but everyone alive is responsible to do something now.

All the State law was trying to do--this was general contract law. I am surprised that Mr. Pincus mentioned unconscionability law because the whole effort in the Supreme Court has been to get rid of the traditional tools of…
This is nothing short of a corporate takeover of our nation's system of laws, and the American people have had enough.
If AT&T can rip everyone off for $30, and the people don't have the right to band together to assert those claims, they are going to get away with it and fraud will pay.
We're going to hear from the attorney general, Anderson. I don't understand why there's a standoff. America was attacked in the 2016 election by the Russians, we are undergoing informational warfare.
