You can try and dismiss the roll of the department of justice here but that is the branch that over sees the executive branch and unlike nixon and clinton the house does not have the support of the DOJ, as again this current DOJ has not seen any criminal activity here. The house is on a witch hunt that is not supported by the laws nor the constitution of this country. As none of the other checks and balances have identified wrong doing with this president. like it our not the house is one of three oversites and the other 2 do not see anything illegal. So again no matter what the house decides the whole thing is just a dog and pony show for you "Dims" out there. as it seems the only people being fooled by this maneuver are hard core can't/won't think for themselves dims who need the evening news to know what to think say or do.
So whatcha going to do when this impeachment bs backfires and trump win his second term like regan did over mondale? (49 states to one)?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's Congress that oversees the Executive branch.
Boru
there is no singular over site it is referred to a series of checks and balances. each having some power over the others is what keeps one branch of government from taking complete control.

In this case if the president is accused of a crime it is on the DOJ table to investigate (remember the muller investigation with the whole russia collusion nonsense and they investigated for 2 years and found nothing??? Yeah that was the DOJ)

So the same DOJ checks out this story and instead of being prompted by the house they check him out and found no crimes have been committed.
That's what makes this whole thing insane...
For the last 2 years it was all about the authority of the DOJ and what they were supposed to find. They have researched trump with a fine tooth comb. and found nothing.
SO NOW the house says we do not care what the attonery General and the whole Department of Justice says is legal or not... We are charging the president with what we deem as a high crime, and we are not allowing anyone to challenge or cross examine anything we find.
