White House will not participate in Judiciary Committee hearing

President Trump nor his attorneys will be able to participate in Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee impeachment hearings. Chairman Jerrold Nadler wrote in a letter to the White House counsel “"We cannot fairly be expected to participate in a hearing while the witnesses are yet to be named and while it remains unclear whether the Judiciary Committee will afford the President a fair process through additional hearings. More importantly, an invitation to an academic discussion with law professors does not begin to provide the President with an semblance of a fair process. Accordingly, under the current circumstances, we do not intend to participate in your Wednesday hearing”.
