House Republican leader demands Nancy Pelosi SUSPEND impeachment inquiry until Congress agrees on 'transparent and equitable rules' accusing her of failing to 'be fair' to Donald Trump

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy demanded Speaker Nancy Pelosi suspend the Democrats' impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump

He wants Congress to agree on 'transparent and equitable rules'

He accused Pelosi of being unfair to President Trump

Trump gave McCarthy's move his seal of approval and endorsed him for speaker if Republicans win back the House in the 2020 election Pelosi has yet to publicly respond to the letter But she has defended her handling of the process, saying some Republicans would be 'nervous' about having to vote on an inquiry if she brought that up

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy on Thursday demanded Speaker Nancy Pelosi suspend the Democrats' impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump until Congress can agree on 'transparent and equitable rules' in the process.

His offensive move comes as some Republican lawmakers have been grumbling that the White House has not had a concise, planned response to the Democrats' move.

'I am writing to request you suspend all efforts surrounding your 'impeachment inquiry' until transparent and equitable rules and procedures are established to govern the inquiry,' McCarthy, a loyal Trump ally and prominent defender of the president, wrote.

Which, by the way, is why no administration official is required to comport with requests/demands for paperwork or testimony.

It has no weight unless an impeachment inquiry is actually triggered.

If Democrat, Nancy Pelosi is sane at all, which I think and believe she is not, she will immediately end the Trump Impeachment Inquiry and remove Democrat, Adam Schiff to be a congressional back bencher for the rest of his entire career. Case closed!!!

And then Pelosi says to McCarthy “kiss my ass” and McCarthy responds to Pelosi “nevermind, I told the President it would make you mad and get me in trouble”. Then McCarthy says “I’m going to hide under my desk”.

Nancy’s response was: “You have to pass impeachment first if you want to see what we’re impeaching him about.”

Or add the Congresspersons running against Pres. Trump who voted to impeach on same grounds; abuse of office for personal gain (election).

Just because they call their witch hunt an impeachment inquiry does not change the fact that it is a witch hunt.

The house never voted to start the inquiry thus, there is not one.

Keep this in the news, drag it out, make them vacillate, make them piss off their own various constituencies. Who said we didn’t have a strategy?

RE: The house never voted to start the inquiry thus, there is not one.

Is it a RULE in Congress that a formal inquiry can only be initiated by a FULL HOUSE vote? Or can the majority in the House change the rules as they see fit?

Socialists love show trials and if you like kangaroos they are great fun.

Dallas just completed a show trial of a police officer.

They are fools if they expect or will receive fairness from the marx-o-crats in Congress.

Kevin is doing the right thing.

Put Nancy on the spot and see how she crumbles.

Good for him.
