The legislative course of is designed to boost the frequent good of the folks and will by no means be used simply to smear and harass a President, his White Home employees, and folks in his household.
All through this investigation, Chairman Comer has distorted a number of information, invented some, and hid the proof in an effort to distract from his utter failure to search out any proof of wrongdoing by the President, a lot much less an impeachable offense.
