A witness selected by Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee said he received threats since he testified that Democrats’ current impeachment efforts against President Donald Trump don’t hold water.

“Before I finished my testimony, my home and office were inundated with threatening messages and demands that I be fired from George Washington University for arguing that, while a case for impeachment can be made, it has not been made on this record,” George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley wrote in an opinion article published Thursday in The Hill, a day after he testified along with three other legal experts.
