Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey today condemned the way Democrats in Congress are conducting an inquiry into whether to impeach President Donald Trump over allegations that Trump sought political favors as a condition of U.S. aid to Ukraine.

The governor issued a statement calling the process, which has included closed door interviews with diplomats and other officials, a “political charade.”

“We are witnessing an injustice on our democracy," the statement said. “Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats in Congress are making an attempt to impeach the president through the press via leaks and conjecture. This appears to be purely political when you offer no due process and zero transparency. When we elected President Trump in 2016, Alabamians and the American people sought progress. We wanted stronger infrastructure, a booming economy, and security for all American citizens. President Trump and his Administration are fighting to do that. Congress has a job to do on behalf of the American people, not this political charade we are currently witnessing.

“I say Congress should take a page out of our book here in Alabama. Our achievements are accomplished through strong, bipartisan efforts, and we are seeing great progress for that.

“President Trump has my steadfast and full support as he works to better our nation.”

Ivey’s statement comes two days after U.S. Reps. Mo Brooks, Bradley Byrne, and Gary Palmer of Alabama joined others in confronting the Democrat-led House committee conducting closed-door interviews on the impeachment inquiry.
