Democrats describe President Trump’s actions toward Ukraine as a “crime in progress” and a smoking gun that is “already reloaded”
"He's going to make a report, I think to the attorney general and to Congress," Trump told reporters earlier this week of Giuliani. "He says he has a lot of good information. I have not spoken to him about that information."
In other words, Democrats are facing the prospect of impeaching a president as he dismisses their allegations in real-time. But that's no reason to hesitate, they say, even if Trump appears certain to win an acquittal in the Republican-controlled Senate. “The behavior is the president’s. The blame is on the president. We are not responsible for that,” said Rep. Madeleine Dean , another Judiciary Committee member. “If he continues in that behavior, we hope the Senate will do their duty.”
Several House committees are deep into legal battles to obtain the president’s personal financial records. The House is also engaged in numerous court cases meant to force the release of these documents as well as compel the production witnesses and evidence connected to special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe that the White House has blocked from lawmakers. Two of those court cases will be heard by a federal appeals court on Jan. 3.
