WATCH: House Impeachment Managers Forced to Withdraw Evidence in Case Against Trump After Senator Mike Lee Says It Is False
Rep. Raskin
The House impeachment managers on Wednesday were forced to withdraw evidence in their case against Donald Trump after Senator Mike Lee said it was not accurate.
The impeachment managers claimed on the night of January 6, Trump called Senator Mike Lee in the Capitol mistakenly believing he was talking to Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville.
“He dialed Senator Lee by accident, and Senator Lee describes it that he had just ended a prayer in the Senate chamber,” said impeachment manager David Cicilline (D-RI).
Rep. Cicilline claimed that Trump asked Tuberville to “make further objections” to Biden’s electors as Senator Lee “stood by.”
Mike Lee went off on the lying impeachment managers for attributing a false quote to him.
