“He’s done so much damage to this country in less than nine months, which is really scary,” Rep. Gibbs told The Washington Examiner. “Obviously, it’s not going to go anywhere with Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi,”

“It shows that there are some Republicans that think that this president needs to be impeached, he needs to be removed from office one way or another,” Gibbs added. “At some point, they’re gonna be held accountable for their actions, and this is kind of putting them on notice.”
