House Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries said the impeachment inquiry will focus on “abuse of power'
House Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries said on Sunday the House impeachment inquiry will focus on “abuse of power,” adding it could include possible White House failures to comply with congressional subpoenas.
“There's evidence of that hiding in plain sight of that fact,” the New York congressman said on “Fox News Sunday,” referring to the July 25th phone call between President Donald Trump and Ukraine’s new president, Volodymyr Zelensky.And Jeffries suggested, “To the extent that there is a continued cover-up, that could provide potential grounds for an obstruction of Congress charge.”Jeffries also characterized the president’s discussion with the Ukrainian president as a “high-pressure tactic.
The congressman drove the point home later on CNN’s “State of the Union,” charging there’s “serious evidence of wrongdoing,” referring to Trump’s apparent solicitation of foreign interference in the 2020 election. He also said the president has sought to “undermine our national security and the integrity of our elections.”
