As the Trump administration stonewalls Congress once again, Democrats turn to the only remedy left
NANCY PELOSI has long been a Republican bogeyman. In 2018, Republican congressional candidates across America built her into a caricature of a wild-eyed, out-of-touch coastal liberal. In fact, Mrs Pelosi is among America’s most calculating politicians. That has frustrated some of those on the left of her caucus, but the leader of the House of Representatives knows that she owes her majority to moderates from conservative districts.
The report came to light on September 13th, when Mr Schiff announced that he had subpoenaed it and all related documents from Joseph Maguire, the acting DNI. Mr Schiff argues that its withholding violates the Intelligence Community Whistleblower Protection Act.
That is one of two arguments at the heart of Mr Trump’s defence--that Mr Biden put pressure on Ukraine’s former president to get him to fire a prosecutor investigating his son. Mr Biden did urge Ukraine to more effectively combat corruption, and he urged the sacking of a prosecutor-general, whom America and other Western nations viewed as corrupt.
