Liz Cheney Demands Pelosi Stop ‘Selective Leaking’ Of Impeachment Testimony

Republican Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney asked Friday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “immediately release” all transcripts related to the impeachment inquiry.

She told Pelosi in a letter that the “selective leaking” of comments made by witnesses must stop and the public must be allowed to determine for themselves the importance of the testimony. The House voted in favor of an impeachment inquiry on Thursday, with only two Democrats voting with Republicans to oppose the measure.

“Despite the vote in the House on October 31, House Democrats continue to conduct the partisan effort to impeach the President in secret,” Cheney wrote in correspondence to Pelosi.

“Your duty to the Constitution and the American people, as well as fundamental fairness, requires that you immediately release the full transcripts of all depositions taken since you pronounced the beginning of an impeachment inquiry on September 24, 2019,” the letter noted. (RELATED: Speaker Nancy Pelosi Compares Impeachment To American Revolution)

Republicans have accused Democratic California Rep. Adam Schiff of riding roughshod over the legal rights of President Donald Trump. Republican South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham said the Senate should refuse to consider an impeachment trial because the inquiry has been “illegitimate.”
