Halloween could well haunt the White House as the U.S. House of Representatives is set to
[link removed]
take a vote on impeachment . At issue: not whether to impeach, but whether to formally move in that direction. Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry
[link removed]
finds himself in the crosshairs , somewhat. As the outgoing Energy Secretary, Perry has refused to comply with a congressional subpoena. Lawmakers want to explore Perry’s possible role in the Trump Administration's entreaties to Ukraine, the issue at the center of the impeachment investigation. But if pundits' predictions are correct, both Perry and the White House will have a tough time convincing the public the process is invalid if the House votes on impeachment procedures tomorrow.
