Steve Chabot in The Mueller Report


On Principles & Values: Mueller did not determine any impeachable conduct

Rep. Jim SENSENBRENNER (D-WI): Mr. Chabot and I were on this committee during the Clinton impeachment. Kenneth Starr on a number of occasions in his report, stated that "President Clinton's actions may have risen to impeachable conduct, recognizing that it is up to the House of Representatives to determine what conduct is impeachable."

CHABOT (R-OH): Director Mueller, my Democratic colleagues were very disappointed in your report. They were expecting you to say something along the lines of why President Trump deserves to be impeached, much as Ken Starr did relative to President Clinton 20 years ago. Well, you didn't, so their strategy had to change. Now they allege that there's plenty of evidence in your report to impeach the president, but the American people just didn't read it. And this hearing today is their last best hope to build up some sort of groundswell across America to impeach President Trump. That's what this is really all about today.
