Adam Schiff, a Democrat from California, is enraged by an announcement made by Kevin McCarthy, the Republican Speaker of the House and a Republican from California.

Fox News Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram reported that the Speaker has announced his support for a resolution introduced by House Republican Conference Chair and New York Rep. Elise Stefanik and Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to expunge the former president’s two impeachments from the record.

“Yeah, because, look, I voted against both impeachments,” McCarthy said to reporters on Friday.

The Speaker stated that the first impeachment of the former president, which was based on a phone call he had with the President of Ukraine, was “not founded on true facts.” And the second impeachment, based on the Capitol incident on January 6, was “without due process.”

“I think it is appropriate, just as I thought before, that you should expunge it because it never should have gone through,” the Speaker said.

In light of revelations by IRS whistleblowers and other sources, he then discussed applying the same standards Democrats applied to former President Trump to President Biden.

“So what about at 10:23 today that said an individual had to pay the Biden family and he had to use shell companies to pass it through,” the Speaker said. “Is that more than a phone call?”

“And what about what we just found from Jason Smith, where now you have DOJ warning Hunter Biden ahead of time,” he said. “You now have 51 individuals, who when they had a laptop that had been classified certification — that you’re talking to former CIA directors and others— lie to the American public before an election, saying that that was Russia collusion.”

“At the same time you have a number of items that if I raise the bar to an impeachment with the same level that the Democrats did, I think there’d be a lot of times impeachment,” he said.

Breitbart News made a report.

Stefanik’s resolution aims to expunge Trump’s impeachment concerning January 6. She asserts the facts and circumstances upon which the House Democrats impeached Trump did not meet the burden of proving that Trump committed “high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” She also argues the impeachment did not establish that Trump engaged in an “insurrection or rebellion against the United States.”

Greene’s resolution focuses on Trump’s 2019 impeachment regarding the “perfect phone call.” Greene argues Trump was wrongfully accused of misconduct, demonstrated by the information revealed in the FBI informant document that alleges Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe. The resolution asserts the articles of impeachment did not meet the burden of proof of “high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

According to reports on Wednesday, the former president has learned who government prosecutors will summon to testify against him in the case involving the alleged mishandling of classified documents.

The Justice Department disclosed “grand jury testimony of witnesses who will testify for the government at the trial of this case” as part of the pre-trial discovery phase.

However, the DOJ’s filing did not include a specific listing of the witnesses or their grand jury testimony.
