Pennsylvania. shes a member of the judiciary committee, one of the six house committees conducting the impeachment inquiry. and congresswoman, thank you for being here. im going to start with that question about william barr. in your view, is he sufficiently implicated by the whistle-blower in this scheme to both try and cook up an investigation that exonerates russia for attacking our election and in trying to dig up dirt on former vice president biden? >> well, good morning, joy, thank you for...

Show host. welcome to both of you. i want to pick up on what adam schiff -- his comments about moving at all speeds in the investigation. is there a general consensus that an impeachment vote needs to happen at the end of the year because of this election calendar? really, how thorough can the process be when youre hoping for that kind of deadline? >> i think it is so important for congress to do their sworn duty to provide oversight and serve the checks and balances to the executive branch. num...
