John Dean, the former White House counsel for President Nixon, says there "is enough evidence" for President Trump to be impeached.

Dean, who testified against Nixon during the Watergate scandal, told the San Francisco Chronicle in an interview published Monday that Trump's request for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to "look into" former Vice President Joe Biden reaches the threshold to qualify for impeachment.

“There is enough evidence of an abuse of power, a breach of his oath of office,” Dean said. “What they need to do is get evidence that fleshes it out. They need to show exactly what was going on.”

To speed up the impeachment process, the former White House counsel added that congressional investigators need someone comparable to Dean during the Watergate investigation with extensive White House knowledge to testify against the president. - The Hill, the RW rag that it is
