In an appearance on Fox News, lawyer Alan Dershowitz also said that the subpoena against Don McGahn will have 'no substantive impact.'
Dershowitz gave a basic explanation of the requirements for impeachment."He has a very, very powerful office, and the framers wanted it that way. That's why they required for impeachment very strict criteria to be met," he explained.
He also drew comparisons between the U.S. process for impeachment and a parliamentary system like the one established in the U.K."We don't live in a parliamentary democracy, where parliament can just vote to remove a leader, a prime minister," he said. A nameplate for former White House Counsel Don McGahn sits on the witness table prior to a House Judiciary Committee hearing in which McGahn was subpoenaed to testify May 21, 2019 on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.Before asking for Dershowitz's response, host Laura Ingraham called the subpoena"hyperbolic" and noted that the Department of Justice planned to appeal."If upheld at the D.C.
The high profile lawyer, who has represented Mike Tyson, Patty Hearst, and O.J. Simpson, reiterated Ingraham's assertion that the subpoena will have"no substantive impact" because McGahn can invoke privilege."The Judge went out of her way to say, 'I am not ruling on the issues of privilege. All I'm saying is he has to show up and use that word,'" he explained.
Dershowitz also said that the subpoena won't have any major impact on the impeachment."All it means is that people have to show up, and then they can invoke the privilege," he told Ingraham.have found the subpoena to be a major development in the impeachment.
