Madam Speaker, I would like to say that I feel like it is incredibly irresponsible and premature and careless for this body, led by our Speaker and the Democratic Party, to rush to this conclusion and allege that our President has committed high crimes. I don't believe this is under the auspices of pursuit of justice and truth. I think it is placating a certain group in the Democratic Party. I think this is more of the bloodlust for impeaching our President, not because of high crimes, but because they hate him, they hate his personality, they hate his policies, but that is no justification. We are better than that as a country. We should be more responsible in how we faithfully carry out our constitutional duties. So I look forward to reading the transcript. I look forward to getting the facts. Republican or Democrat, Madam Speaker, we ought to look at the facts and we ought to be very judicious and careful and certainly responsible when wielding our constitutional oversight, and certainly that provision of impeachment. So that is what I am going to do on behalf of the good people of west Texas and my beloved countrymen across the United States. ____________________
