House Speaker Pelosi: Trump making impeachment case by ignoring subpoenas

U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi said on Wednesday President Donald Trump was moving closer to impeachment with his effort to thwart congressional subpoenas and obstruct lawmakers' efforts to oversee his administration. "Every single day the president is making the case" and "he's becoming self-impeachable," Pelosi said in an interview with the Washington Post, when asked about the possibility of the Republican president being impeached by the House. Trump on Wednesday asserted executive privilege over Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on Russian meddling in the 2016 campaign and its underlying investigative materials, escalating the battle with the Democrats on the U.S. House Judiciary Committee.
