"President Trump abused his power, betrayed our national security, and corrupted our elections, all for personal gain," said Chairman Nadler.
WASHINGTON – Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee released a 55-page report Saturday on the constitutional grounds for the impeachment of President Donald Trump.
The report's release comes after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Thursday she had asked chairmen of committees investigating Trump to draft articles of impeachment against him. The report may be part of the presentation to the House Judiciary Committee on Monday, when staff for the Judiciary and Intelligence committees present their full findings. Last Wednesday, the Judiciary Committee heard from four legal scholars about the legal questions surrounding impeachment.
Such acts included treason, bribery, abuses of power, foreign entanglements, and corruption of the office. The White House announced Friday evening that Trump would not be sending a lawyer to Monday's impeachment hearing, slamming the process as a"charade."The report directly responds to House Republicans' report on Trump's dealings with Ukraine, which had defended Trump's conduct by saying Trump had a genuine and “reasonable skepticism” of Ukraine because of past corruption and concerns about Hunter Biden.
