(WRN) -As Democrats continue to make their case for an impeachment of the President, Republicans say the process is corrupt.Speaking at the House Judiciary Hearing on Monday, Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner, along with other Republicans, took exception to California Congressman Devin Nunes being named in a report as having made phone calls to suspected co-conspirators in the investigation.
"Folks, you have made Joe McCarthy look like a piker, with what you've done with the electronic surveillance involved."
Sensenbrenner says the investigations implicated California Congressman Devin Nunes and did so with electronic matching of phone records from a co-conspirator in the case.
"It is something that has to be put a stop to now. It is something that has to be fessed up to now, whether it's you Mr. Goldman that authorized the matching and the publication, or whether it was Chairman Schiff."
Sensenbrenner says that Democrats handling the investigation maliciously released information that linked California Congressman Devin Nunes to one of the co-conspirators in the case.
"Here we see a clear abuse of power on the part of the people who are prosecuting the impeachment against the President of the United States. They should be ashamed of themselves."
Democrats laid out their claims that the President willfully broke the law, that others knew about it, and that he continues to attempt to subvert the elections. The House report shows that Nunes spent time on the phone with one of two men accused in a corruption case connected with the Ukraine investigation.
