Trump is a vocal critic of Schiff, whom he has accused without evidence of being in contact with a whistleblower whose complaint to the intelligence community’s inspector general about Trump’s phone call with Ukraine’s president is credited with sparking the impeachment inquiry.

The House voted this week on procedures for the inquiry, a major step toward formally impeaching Trump. The White House has refused to cooperate in the process, while Republicans have criticized it as overly secretive and partisan.
