House Counsel Suggests Trump Could be Impeached Again
The House Judiciary Committee told a federal appeals court on Monday that it is still seeking testimony from former White House counsel Don McGahn because he could provide information that would help the panel decide whether to recommend additional articles of impeachment against President Trump.
The committee submitted a brief to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals arguing that its subpoena of McGahn is not moot following the House’s vote to approve two articles of impeachment.
“If McGahn’s testimony produces new evidence supporting the conclusion that President Trump committed impeachable offenses that are not covered by the Articles approved by the House, the Committee will proceed accordingly — including, if necessary, by considering whether to recommend new articles of impeachment,” the panel wrote in its filing.
The committee also said that McGahn’s testimony would be crucial for helping the House present its case against Trump in an upcoming Senate trial over the approved impeachment articles.
The panel subpoenaed McGahn in March as part of an investigation into potential obstruction by the Trump White House. That investigation culminated earlier this month when the House approved an article of impeachment for obstruction of Congress.
