Reps. Mark Meadows (R-NC) and Jim Jordan (R-OH) filed articles of impeachment against Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

“The DOJ has continued to hide information from Congress and repeatedly obstructed oversight–even defying multiple Congressional subpoenas,” tweeted Meadows. “We have had enough.”

I just filed a resolution with @Jim_Jordan and several colleagues to impeach Rod Rosenstein. The DOJ has continued to hide information from Congress and repeatedly obstructed oversight–even defying multiple Congressional subpoenas.

We have had enough.

According to Politico reporter Rachael Bade, the men chose to file it as a “privileged resolution,” so that they don’t have to force a vote on the House floor for the impeachment.

“This avoids the GOP civil war that would take place if they DID try to force a vote on this. Rs VERY divided on the matter,” she tweeted.

IMPORTANT note: Conservatives chose NOT to file this as a privileged resolution. That means that they don't get to force a vote on it on the House floor. This avoids the GOP civil war that would take place if they DID try to force a vote on this. Rs VERY divided on the matter https://t.co/DGGBfP4aRc

She later reported that Congress might file the privileged resolution if the Justice Department doesn’t turn over the documents.
