Schiff: Public Has No Right To Observe Impeachment Inquiry…Then Kicks GOP Lawmaker Out<\/h1>\n

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) says that the public shouldn’t be allowed to observe hearings in the ongoing impeachment inquiry, as doing so\u00a0may allow Republicans to then “fabricate testimony” (and totally not because their case is falling apart).<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Schiff told host Margaret Brennan that the ongoing impeachment inquiry is “analogous to a grand jury proceeding,” which is “done out of the public view initially.”<\/p>\n

Rep Schiff says impeachment hearings must be secret because they're like grand jury; can't let Trump side coordinate stories. Question: Will Schiff pledge to release all transcripts before public hearings and reasonable period of time before House votes on impeachment articles? pic.twitter.com\/1DCrCZ9oCl<\/a><\/p>\n
