CONGRESSMAN SCOTT DESJARLAIS ON DONALD TRUMP IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY

WASHINGTON, D.C. –  Today, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced an impeachment inquiry into President Trump. Congressman Scott DesJarlais, M.D., released the following statement:

“Before and after last year’s midterm elections, a few of us predicted Democrat leadership would fall prey to their most strident members and move to impeach President Trump.  Sadly, having accomplished nothing but fruitless investigations in this Congress, Speaker Pelosi has allowed this radical element to dictate another partisan investigation.

“An overwhelming majority of the American public rejects impeachment. However, some individuals, who still cannot accept that their candidate lost the 2016 presidential election, are pursuing a purely political agenda. Congress must reject it.”
