Much of impeachment inquiry may be conducted in secret

“Impeachment will uncover the truth,” House Financial Services Committee Chairwoman Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, tweeted Tuesday.

But a decision by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to hand off the impeachment inquiry to the Intelligence Committee means key parts of the inquiry will be kept secret.

The House Intelligence Committee, led by Chairman Adam Schiff, is scheduled on Friday to interview Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael K. Atkinson.

Atkinson is one of the most important witnesses in the impeachment inquiry. He conducted the initial review into a whistleblower allegation that President Trump asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate corruption allegations against former Vice President Joe Biden and that the White House attempted to conceal records of the July 25 call.

But the public won’t get to see Atkinson testify because the Intelligence Committee will hold Friday’s hearing behind closed doors.

“This hearing is critical to establish additional details, leads, and evidence,” Schiff told fellow Democrats last week.

Which you will honestly and accurately convey to the public afterwards, since we won't be able to watch.

I wonder if anyone, besides the leftist dead enders, is buying this crap anymore? Or do the rats care.

It's a race between the Rats and Bill Barr. The rats want Trump gone and gone fast and they want Barr gone to.

Until the House actually votes to start one, there IS no impeachment inquiry.  Just a bunch of smoke and mirrors being whipped up by the media.

So much for transparency.

There’s ‘backfire’ written all over this latest push to impeach. It’s poorly conceived and deceptively executed. She’s feeling around for a toe hold that isn’t there.
