House Intelligence Committee Plans Tuesday Release of Impeachment Report

Steve Herman

   WHITE HOUSE - The U.S. House Intelligence Committee is expected to
   publicly release Tuesday a report on its findings and recommendations
   in the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump.

   Committee Chairman Adam Schiff told MSNBC late Monday that the panel
   was "putting the finishing touches" on the report. He also said the
   committee would vote Tuesday night on formally submitting it to the
   Judiciary Committee, whose members will decide whether to draw up
   articles of impeachment against Trump.

   The Judiciary Committee is scheduled to start its own impeachment
   hearings Wednesday, and will do so without a Trump lawyer present.

   The president said he would not be sending representation "because the
   whole thing is a hoax."

   Trump also criticized Democrats for holding the hearing at the time he
   will be attending the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's leaders'
   summit in London.

   "Just landed in the United Kingdom, heading to London for NATO meetings
   tomorrow," Trump tweeted late Monday. "Prior to landing I read the
   Republicans Report on the Impeachment Hoax. Great job! Radical Left has
   NO CASE. Read the transcripts. Shouldn't even be allowed. Can we go to
   Supreme Court to stop?"
