During an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said he would choose Republican Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio, Doug Collins of Georgia, and John Ratcliffe of Texas to represent Trump in his looming Senate impeachment trial.
“These are individuals I would actually pull in at the White House,” McCarthy said. “You want people that have been through this, understand it, been in the hearings even when they were in the basement.”
Jordan, Collins and Ratcliffe – all staunch Trump allies in the House – played vocal roles in the House Intelligence and Judiciary committees’ inquiries into the president.

Add up lawyers’ fees and the salaries of staff whose duties have been consumed by impeachment proceedings, and taxpayers are footing a hefty bill.
