NEW YORK, NY – Josh Gottheimer (D, NJ-05) joined The Daily Briefing With Dana Perino on Wednesday afternoon and completely ducked a question about the shadowy, secretive impeachment process unfolding on Capitol Hill.
“It’s most important is getting to the facts. Making sure the facts drive the process are not prejudging. I think that’s exactly was going on. I was getting to the facts. There will be a process where there’s going to be public hearings,” the two-term Congressman told Perino who had asked Gottheimer if the process’s critics had a point. “They will have to present — the committees will have to present their findings. I’m not gonna vote on anything on this issue until I can read everything and see everything myself. I’m not going to go on what’s reported.”

Gottheimer’s Fox News appearance came mere hours after a small army of House Republicans stormed a closed-door House Intelligence Committee hearing related to impeachment.

Watch: Rep. Dan Crenshaw roasts Democrats for secret impeachment process, leaks
Adam Schiff isn't allowing Reps. to see the transcripts from this impeachment inquiry, but selectively leaks small portions to the press. This process should be transparent to the American people. It should be a fair process w/ clear rules, just like past impeachment inquiries. pic.twitter.com/Rg2AKtRHIM
