Republicans told they must ‘uphold our Constitution’ amid impeachment vote

US House Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff says if Republicans say the president may "refuse lawful process, or cheat an election" because he is the president of their party then “you do not uphold our Constitution or your oath of office”. "When we say we uphold the Constitution we are not talking about a piece of parchment, we are talking about a beautiful architecture in which ambition is set against ambition in which no branch of government can dominate another, that is what it means to uphold the Constitution," he said.
