                        WE THE PEOPLE GROW WEARY

  (Mr. HIGGINS of Louisiana asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. HIGGINS of Louisiana. Madam Speaker, the Democrats' entire case 
against the President is built on hearsay, unverified third-party 
accounts, and opinion.
  No cop in America could righteously make any arrest with that degree 
of evidence, not even a misdemeanor, much less something as sobering as 
the impeachment of our duly elected President.
  They tread upon the very colors of our flag. Contrary to our 
constitutional oath, they are conducting a secret investigation 
disguised as an impeachment inquiry, calling forth only prosecutorial 
hearsay demonstration, hearsay testimony deemed most likely to condemn 
the President, witnesses selected and screened by Adam Schiff.
  True investigators interview everyone, not just those who lead to a 
predetermined conclusion. Democrats are handpicking witnesses and 
selectively releasing information to mislead the American people.
  This is dangerous, it is wrong, and we the people grow weary.
