The House of Representatives has been a scene of serious chaos, not only today, but for weeks. I'm speaking NOW on the House floor about things that, if you’re not reading these THOUSANDS of pages of impeachment hearing materials, you might have missed.

Democrats have IGNORED House rules that Congressmen can observe unclassified hearings and view committee records. These records don’t belong to Adam Schiff or Speaker Pelosi or even to ME. They belong to the American people! But all the transcripts still haven't been released.

The whistleblower alleged
@realDonaldTrump made demands on President Zelensky. But few in the media have reported that Zelensky has publicly, clearly, & repeatedly denied this OR that the Justice Department reviewed this allegation and declined to pursue a criminal investigation.Show this thread -
President
@realDonaldTrump took the extraordinary step of releasing the transcript of this supposedly extraordinary call. You can read the entire transcript online. I hope the American people will do so because you won’t find one demand in there, not one. Read the transcripts!Show this thread -
The hold placed on assistance to Ukraine was placed before the phone call that
@realDonaldTrump had with President Zelensky. In the transcript, neither president said one word about the hold! If Trump were trying to use the aid for extorsion, he would have at least mentioned it!Show this thread -
Witnesses have speculated why aid was held, but when pressed, all said some version of “I don’t know.” We have a lot of bureaucratic gossip here, but NOT ONE PERSON has testified they had any direct knowledge that
@realDonaldTrump ordered to hold aid for a political favor!Show this thread -
The only witness with any serious contact with
@realDonaldTrump, Ambassador Sondland, testified he called Trump and asked about one of the Democrat witnesses raising the rumor of quid pro quo with him. The President directly told him, “There is no quid pro quo. No quid pro quo.”Show this thread -
Despite this sham of a process, we have no evidence that
@realDonaldTrump ordered any kind of quid pro quo, NONE. The call transcript shows NO demand, President Zelensky says there was NO demand, and NO EVIDENCE shows President Trump ordered a demand.Show this thread -
This entire process, from its very inception, has been a hypocritical, shameful exercise in partisan political opportunism. There is no substance here. None of
@realDonaldTrump’s actions even approach anything remotely near impeachable conduct.Show this thread -
Democrats made a critical error in orchestrating their impeachment scheme. They underestimated the resolve of the American people that elected
@realDonaldTrump. The facts are on our side, and we will rise to the occasion and fight back against this radical scheme to remove him.Show this thread
