Chris Murphy: We Have to Do ‘Some Real Soul Searching About the Conditions for Impeachment’

RUSH EXCERPT:
MURPHY: "Well, this was explosive. It was stunning, and though the FBI director, former director wouldn’t say it himself, he laid out a case that describes the president of the United States trying to obstruct justice, clear as day. And his belief that he was fired because he was pursuing the truth with respect to the connection that the Trump campaign and possibly the president himself had with Russia is the most important piece of this story. And so the question now is what comes next for us? Clearly there’s still some unanswered questions. You might not have mentioned the fact that he did bring out the question of perhaps a third contact that the attorney general had with the Russians, another reason for recusal. We’ve got to get to the bottom of that. And then, listen, I think there are going to be some real soul searching about the conditions for impeachment. This alone may not bring that conversation to a head, but I think we have enough now to know that the president was absolutely trying to stop the FBI from getting to the truth on the Russia story."
