The House Judiciary Committee will hold its first hearing today as it begins its drive to build a constitutional case for Trump’s impeachment and removal from office
The Intelligence Committee’s 300-page report gives Judiciary aDemocrats plan to present a united front on Wednesday against Republican attacks on the case they have built against the president, which Trump’s allies say has been an unfair and illegitimate impeachment process.
Like the Intelligence Committee’s impeachment hearings, Wednesday’s hearing will feature lengthy questioning rounds by committee lawyers, a format that aided Democrats during the evidence-gathering phase. Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler plans to lean on Norm Eisen, a longtime Washington attorney who joined the committee as a consultant earlier this year, for that portion of the hearing.
The panel will feature three scholars called by Democrats: Noah Feldman of Harvard Law School, Michael Gerhardt of the University of North Carolina Law School, and Pamela Karlan of Stanford Law School. Each is an expert in constitutional law, and Karlan has an expertise in democracy and elections that Democrats will lean on to discuss allegations that Trump sought foreign intervention to boost his 2020 reelection prospects.
