Rogers calls impeachment inquiry a ‘waste of time’

Nutley Commissioner Steve Rogers, a member of President Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign advisory board, slammed Rep. Mikie Sherrill’s over her comments calling President Donald Trump’s allegedly asking Ukrainian officials to investigate former Vice President’s son an impeachable offense.

“Calling for the impeachment of President Trump is absolutely ridiculous, a waste of time, and a waste of taxpayers’ dollars,” Rogers said. “The President committed no impeachable offenses, let alone no offenses at all. She must know that the Senate will never go along with this charade.”

House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday announced an official impeachment inquiry against Trump.

A Wall Street Journal Report released Sunday that said Trump repeatedly pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to work with former New York City Mayor Rudy Guliani, Trump’s personal lawyer, on a probe focusing on Hunter Biden, the son of the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination to take on Trump next year.

There is no evidence of wrongdoing on the part of the elder or younger Biden, who sat on the board of a Ukrainian gas company that was once investigated by the country’s former prosecutor general, Viktor Shokin, who was formally dismissed by Ukraine’s parliament after a series of protests over his blocking a number of high-profile corruption cases.
