“We are deeply concerned about Secretary Pompeo’s effort now to potentially interfere with witnesses whose testimony is needed before our committee, many of whom are mentioned in the whistleblower complaint,” Schiff said at a press conference. His remarks come one day after Pompeo pushed back on House Democrats’ efforts to take depositions from State Department officials, accusing the lawmakers of bullying and intimidation.

Chairman Schiff appears unconcerned with President Trump's baseless attacks on his character.
