Scalise Faces Congress & Discloses Five Ways The 'Scheme' To Impeach Trump Is 'Rotten To The Core' - Congressman Steve Scalise (R-LA) stepped up to the podium and ripped apart Democrats’ effort to impeach President Trump during a recent speech on Capitol Hill. In a section of his speech that he uploaded to Twitter, Rep. Scalise disclosed how Democrats’ “impeachment inquiry” is really a “scheme.” Scalise then pointed out, in the caption of his tweet, five ways Democrats’ inquiry is “rotten to the core,” which are as follows: It’s “all done in secret”, it’s led by “proven-liar” Adam Schiff, there was “no authorization from the House”, it’s “full of misleading leaks” from Dems and “members of Congress are denied access”.

“With all due respect, this process is rotten to the core,” Scalise said in the video of his speech. “You can talk about process. “You literally have a chairman (Adam Schiff) who is running around for two years during the Mueller investigation, who said he had ‘more than circumstantial evidence’ that there was collusion between the President and Russia,” Scalise said.

Further, Zeldin called Schiff’s questioning “disgusting” for playing into his anti-Trump narrative. “I will tell you that there is nothing from anything that I’ve heard that you could possibly impeach the President of the United States for,” said Zeldin.

“They have creativity in developing a narrative, a story to try to connect all sorts of different dots that aren’t actually connected. I see it with the way Chairman Schiff asks his questions inside these depositions.” One example of Schiff’s unfair questioning Zeldin provided was during former adviser to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo Michael McKinley’s testimony. Despite enduring hours of questioning witnesses, Zeldin said, Democrats have no basis for impeachment. Trump demands deposition of Adam Schiff; asks 'when do the Republicans finally fight back?'
