The House Judiciary Committee plans to cover the first topic at a Monday hearing on "presidential obstruction and other crimes." McGahn, who is frequently referenced in the report, has defied subpoenas to provide documents and testify before the House Judiciary Committee. The procession of hearings and votes in the week ahead is partly designed to mollify anxious Democrats who have pushed Pelosi, D-Calif., to begin impeachment proceedings immediately . The latest approach appears to have temporarily satisfied the restless House Democrats. Republicans are poised to defend the president at the hearings and challenge Democrats on the decision not to open impeachment hearings.
