Devin Nunes Devastates Schiff, Democrats With Fiery Opening Statement
Article by Katie Pavlich in "Townhall":
During the first public impeachment inquiry hearing on Capitol Hill Wednesday morning, House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes did not hold anything back and slammed Democrats for damaging the country. He also went after the media and again called on Hunter Biden to testify about allegations of corruption in Ukraine.
"In a July open hearing falling publication of the Mueller report, the Democrats engaged in a last ditch effort to convince the American people President Trump is a Russia agent. That hearing was a pitiful finally of a three year long effort by the Democrats, the corrupt media and partisan bureaucrats to overturn the results of the 2016 election. After the spectacular implosion of their Russia hoax on July 24...on July 25th, they turned on a dime and now claim the real malfeasance is the Republicans dealings with Ukraine," Nunes said.
"In the blink of an eye we are asked to simply forget about Democrats on this Committee falsely claiming they had more than circumstantial evidence of collusion between President Trump and Russians. We should forget about them reading fabrications of Trump, Russia collusion from the Steele dossier into the congressional record. We should also forget about them trying to obtain nude pictures of Trump from Russian pranksters who pretended to be Ukrainian officials. We should forget about them leaking a false story to CNN while he was still testifying to our Committee claiming Donald Trump Jr. was colluding with Wikileaks. And forget about countless other deceptions large and small that make them the last people on earth with the credibility to hurl more preposterous accusations against their political opponents."
"And yet here we are," he continued. "This is a carefully orchestrated media smear campaign."
Nunes also called out Schiff for refusing to bring relevant Republican witnesses, including the "whistleblower" who kicked off the impeachment inquiry process, to testify.
