At a press conference following the first House impeachment inquiry vote, Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.) called on Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the head of the House Intelligence Committee, to be the first witness in the upcoming impeachment hearings to answer questions on the anonymous whistleblower that triggered the impeachment inquiry.
“What you’ve heard so far is very true. But as I said on the floor today, what you saw in the House was a very dark cloud falling upon this democracy. Even more, it’s falling upon the House because what is happening here—and [Rep. Jim] McGovern had the audacity to stand there today and say all Republicans want to do is argue about process; they don’t want to argue about substance. I think our leadership team and others have said today that’s not true,” he said.
