Pelosi: Trump becoming 'self-impeachable'
By Mike Lillis - 05/08/19 09:23 AM EDT
Speaker Nancy Pelsosi (D-Calif.) said Wednesday that while she opposes a rush to impeachment, President Trump is pulling himself into the process by his own conduct.
"Every single day the president is making a case — he's becoming self-impeachable, in terms of some of things he's doing," Pelosi said during a public interview with The Washington Post.
Pelosi cited the stonewalling efforts by Trump and the administration as the Democrats push forward with a vigorous series of investigations conducted by a handful of committees, including those examining the conclusions of the special counsel Robert Mueller's report in Russia's 2016 election meddling.
Trump has vowed to fight "all the subpoenas;" the Justice Department has declined to release redacted portions of Mueller's report, as requested by Democrats; and last week, Attorney General William Barr refused to testify before the House Judiciary Committee.
