White House responds to @HouseJudiciary ...No participation in House impeachment. pic.twitter.com/NGp6Y3GfGC— Kelly O'Donnell (@KellyO) December 6, 2019
In his letter notifying the House judiciary committee of Trump’s decision not to send a representative to Monday’s hearing, White House counsel Pat Cipollone slammed the impeachment inquiry as “completely baseless.”
The letter from White House counsel Pat Cipollone to the House judiciary committee does not explicitly say Trump will not participate in Monday’s impeachment hearing, but an administration official reportedly confirmed he would not be sending a representative.
Senior admin official acknowledges the letter doesn't specifically state the WH won't participate. But that's what the letter means, according to a senior administration official. "The letter communicates that we will not participate in this process," the official said
