Jackie Speier on Impeachment: ‘This Is a Very Strong Case of Bribery’

EXCERPT:

REP. JACKIE SPEIER, (D-CA): "I think for a number of reasons. First of all Bob Mueller’s report was 400 pages long, had a lot of legalese. This is a very simple, straightforward act. The president broke the law. He went on a telephone call with the president of Ukraine and said I have a favor, though, and then proceeded to ask for an investigation of his rival. And this is a very strong case of bribery, because you have an elected official, the president, demanding action of a foreign country in this case, and providing something of value, which is the investigation, and he is withholding aid, which is that official act. And the constitution is very clear: treason, bribery or acts of omission. In this case, it’s clearly one of those."
