WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 17: U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), who is part of a Congressional delegation scheduled for an overseas trip, speaks to members of the media January 17, 2019 at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC. In a letter to Speaker of the House Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), President Donald Trump announced the postponement of the trip to visit U.S. service members in Afghanistan, and a stop in Brussels to meet with NATO officials.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Ca) is one of the senior Democrats in Congress who has long been reluctant to pursue impeachment against Donald Trump. But the Ukraine’s story may be changing Schiff’s position. This morning, he told CNN:

“I have spoken with a number of my colleagues over the last week, and this seems different in kind. We may very well have crossed the rubicon here.”

Another Democrat, who has long supported impeachment, tweeted the Democratic Party’s behavior is a bigger scandal than Trump’s.

Meanwhile, this is the verbatim of Donald Trump’s latest response to the Ukraine story.
