Dem clamor for impeachment swells as McGahn refuses testimony

Dem clamor for impeachment swells as McGahn refuses testimony

The chorus of House Democrats calling to launch impeachment proceedings against President Trump is growing louder amid heightened White House stonewalling in the face of numerous probes into the administration.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has, for years, sought to dampen talk of impeachment, fearing the backlash from a public that's not yet on board with ousting the president. And her message has resonated widely within a Democratic Caucus that's overwhelmingly supported her more cautious investigative approach.

But those same probes have been dogged by the administration's refusal to turn over documents and allow witnesses to testify before committees, particularly in relation to special counsel Robert Mueller's sweeping report on Russian interference in the 2016 elections.

The latest episode came this week when former White House counsel Don McGahn announced he would follow the White House's urging and defy a subpoena from the House Judiciary Committee to appear Tuesday before the panel.
