House Speaker Nancy Pelosi speaks at the Capitol on June 5, outlining her strategy for pursuing investigations of President Trump through civil suits. to launch civil suits against Atty. Gen. William Barr and former White House Counsel Don McGahn moves the battle between congressional Democrats and President Trump into an important new phase.
Other hearings will scrutinize Trump’s byzantine financial dealings, his still-hidden tax returns, and his unusual dalliances with Russian officials. The goal is to expose wrongdoing, if any, and keep the misconduct in the public eye. But if the president refuses to comply with court orders, that could serve as new grounds for a potential impeachment.
For now, the pro-impeachment camp remains a distinct if vocal minority, about 60 House members in all. That’s about a fourth of the 235-member Democratic majority — enough to be troublesome for the speaker but not a full-blown insurgency.
