GOP lawmakers introduce articles of impeachment against Rod Rosenstein
On Wednesday, conservative Republican lawmakers, led by Reps. Mark Meadows of North Carolina and Jim Jordan of Ohio, introduced a resolution calling for the impeachment of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
On Twitter, Meadows accused the Department of Justice of hiding information from Congress and "defying multiple congressional subpoenas. We have had enough." Congressional allies of President Trump have claimed Rosenstein is keeping documents from lawmakers and not being transparent about his handling of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, which the Justice Department denies. There will not be a vote on the resolution before the House leaves for a five-week recess on Thursday.
