One of the biggest complaints Republicans have had over the impeachment inquiry is the secrecy.

Because most of them do not sit on these committees, they are not allowed to sit in on these interviews with potential witnesses.

There's a concern and criticism that only select information is being released to make President Trump look bad.

While a couple things have happened and the big breaking news is that Republicans led by Matt Gaetz have quite literally stormed a secure impeachment inquiry,

a secure facility sparking outrage among the left, arguing that by bringing in their electronics, their compromising national security,

their violating rules, it's a big publicity stunt.

While others argue that Donald Trump should have a right to confront his accusers, call their own witnesses,

and that this is all unjust.

The whole thing is particularly complicated.

We have a bunch of statements from many of the Republicans involved and journalists,

and some are arguing they do have jurisdiction over these witnesses, countering claims by Democrats they don't.

At the same time, Lindsey Graham has set to introduce a resolution condemning the impeachment inquiry,

saying it should be dismissed in the Senate without trial.

Okay, there's a lot going on here, and this is breaking.
