The House Judiciary Committee released its full report on the impeachment of President Donald Trump early Monday, ahead of consideration by the full House as early as Wednesday.
The 658-page document, issued just after midnight, is an explanation in four parts of the committee's process and justification for recommending two articles of impeachment against Trump, abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
The committee, led by Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., devotes part one to detailing the process by which the House Intelligence Committee investigated the case against Trump. Part two is dedicated to examining the standards of impeachment laid out in the Constitution.
Part three delves into the details of Democrats' case that Trump abused the power of his office to pressure a foreign government, Ukraine's, to investigate his domestic political rival and interfere in the 2020 presidential election.
Part four makes a case that the president obstructed Congress' ability to hold the executive branch accountable by flouting House investigators' requests for documents and testimony.
The committee concludes that Trump "has fallen into a pattern of behavior: this is not the first time he has solicited foreign interference in an election, been exposed, and attempted to obstruct the resulting investigation. He will almost certainly continue on this course."
"For all the reasons given above, President Trump will continue to threaten the Nation’s security, democracy, and constitutional system if he is allowed to remain in office. That threat is not hypothetical," the report states.

First time they meant Russia which was debunked and a difference of opinion over constitutional jurisdiction between the President and Congress doesn’t rise to the level of an impeachable offense.
No real crime by the President is even alleged in the two Democrat articles.
658-page document see facts below
Facts? We don need no steenken facts. If facts had been at issue, there would’ve been no impeachment.
“”””””Took Nadler nearly 700 pages to justify the Democrat coup d’etat. Color me unimpressed.”””””””””””
It took 700 pages to say ORANGE MAN BAD?
Almost. Every now and then they threw in a page of "TRUMP HURT MY FEELINGS". /s
700 pages? Nadler’s staff is working like busy beavers. You don’t have to agree with their politics to note they fight for every inch every day. Sadly, the same can’t be said of the do-nothing GOP controlled Senate. IF there is a war here only one side is fighting it.
A document that’s a mile wide and an inch deep.
Then that's that, right? No crime, no case, no vote of the full House. It's all over with, right?
Lots of taxpayer money has been spent by the Democrats.
The more pages the less substance.
To them facts are what they want them to be but not real to sane people.
Socialist propaganda.
They have to pass it see what’s in it.
Oh the committee has been passing a lot of things. Hope the sewers of DC can handle them.
This goes to show just how many losers sycophants the Democrats have on their payroll -who the hell can write 700 pages of nonsense?
Lawyers.
