I do fear for this next election cycle with the president who is trying to institute a civil war.

This is a clear and present danger. It is ongoing.

Our committee is certain that Donald Trump does not want Mr. Cipollone to testify here. Indeed, our evidence shows that Mr. Cipollone and his office tried to do what was right. They tried to stop a number of President Trump`s plans for…

We had conversations about potentially obstructing justice or defrauding the electoral account.

I think most Americans see that or are aghast at those actions.

I think that most people when they see Donald Trump when they hear testimony about Donald Trump agreeing with the mob -- when he knows they have weapons and he says let`s march into the Capitol anyway.

Liz Cheney very specifically refers to as 187 minutes of inaction, a little longer than three hours. Her argument, and in fact she has been out ahead of some of the Democrats on the committee, her argument is that it was more in that…

I will never put party above my duty to the country. I will never put party above my duty to the Constitution. I swore an oath under God and I will abide by that oath. I won`t say something that I know is wrong simply to earn the votes of…

We have received evidence of one particular practice that raises significant concern.

Attempting to influence witnesses to testify untruthfully, presents very serious concerns.

The way that I would put it is that it gives us a real insight into how people around the former president are operating into the extent to which they believe that they can affect the testimony of witnesses before the committee.
