In a SCIF in the basement of this very building is a secret process, a process that is designed to keep the truth from the American people. Now, it is not based on firsthand comments. It is based on secondhand gossip. And I can tell you, what I have heard for over 60 hours needs to be heard by the American people, because ultimately this President did nothing wrong. And we need to make sure that we send a clear message to the rest of America that we are a transparent body, not one that is held with secrets. And yet here we are with Adam Schiff providing leading questions, trying to actually get to a foregone conclusion in his mind. It is time that we hold him accountable and the rest of this body. Open it up. Let's be transparent. Let's send a message to the Senate, who ultimately is going to have to be the judge and jury of this. It is time that we put the facts on the table. The facts will exonerate our President. ____________________
