White House rejects House Judiciary's invitation to participate in impeachment hearings

"House Democrats have wasted enough of America's time with this charade. You should end this inquiry now and not waste even more time with additional hearings," Cipollone wrote."Adopting articles of impeachment would be a reckless abuse of power by House Democrats, and would constitute the most unjust, highly partisan, and unconstitutional attempt at impeachment in our Nation's history.

It also said, however, that if the president were to refuse to cooperate with congressional requests, the chair would be able to"impose appropriate remedies, including by denying specific requests by the President or his counsel.”

NBCDNC/MSNBCDNC- have 2 b the worst networks ever! I just had 2 turn off larry odonnell cause of his glorifying the 3 biased women call them strong powerfull women. Truth is all 3 were filled with hatred 4 trump. Sorry, u r not going 2 get real americans 2 believe ur narrative!

Who do they think they are ? Republicans ? No! People who have betrayed their party and their country - they will go down in history.

He was never going to participate, they only wanted to LIE and BITCH saying they 'couldn't' It's like only 'inviting' a murderer to attend his trial, I'm sure he would decline. Check out the footage of yet another child dying on the floor of a cage. Murderers! Monstrous killers!

Then I guess realDonaldTrump has nothing to gripe about. For someone that hasn't done any wrong, why: block testimony, defy subpoenas, refuse to release documents. He says that the House charges are rigged, because they're democrats. But a fair trial in the republican senate.

What is it that chickens say? Bwaaak, bwak, bwak, bwaak!

maybe that is because the WH is worried by what the international community has now recognized. trump isn't a well person.

KDCDEM No surprise here!

Can't defend the indefensible.

Figures

Because it is shame

Trump won't participate in house hearings bc he plans to participate at the senate hearings where he n his minions will inflick chaos, confusion, and untruths to muddy up the facts. Mark my words.

Pelosi and the do nothing Democrats are a Disgrace. Trump 2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

hardball Trump has no credible defense. He is not participating because he has nothing to offer. Besides, if he testifies under oath, does he not risk making false claims?

Good! Don’t give in to the sham.

Of course none of them want to purge themselves.but whine all the way to the gravel!

Good for them, they have actual work to do to move this country forward.

He don't want to distract from the Democrat comedy show.

Good call. Dems created the mess. Let them live with it.

Good!

Lol so innocent

Trump said He'll be there. Im assuming the Whitehouse is,scared that Trump will incriminate himself even further..

I didn’t realize the president could abuse power or obstruct justice this atrociously until trump. ImpeachAndRemoveTrump

As we discussed, this is their only strategy and it is very telling

Good, it’s a waste of time

Wow, they don't look guilty as hell. Not at all. LOL

They had their chance

Republicans need to ask permission from their boss putin..

At every turn Trump has obstructed justice, spurned any and all subpoenas for key witnesses and files and then whined Dems were not playing fair. Not the actions of an innocent man.

Trump is the greatest President in history

hardball

If trump is so innocent as they claim trump to be, if you republicans really want to do damage to the democrats reputations, wouldn’t you think trump and his lawyers do everything in their power to show the proof the republicans have to exonerate trump?

Most. Trans. Parent. Ever.

hardball Trump is a chicken

Can the White House do that? Please Potus just tell them what you know.

Must have something to hide.

White House Won’t Participate in House Impeachment HearingThe White House will continue to sit out of House impeachment hearings next week, sending a letter to the Judiciary Committee on Friday slamming the process as baseless and unfair.
