WATCH: Rep. Cline questions Jack Smith on Trump investigations

Published | Video Starts at 03:29

The difference was that it didn't cover me anymore, which I was fine with. Did you have any evidence that President Trump's statements about the cases against him intimidated witnesses or prevented them from coming forward? But you weren't able to identify a single witness who didn't come forward because they were intimidated by President Trump. We had extremely thorough evidence that his statements were having an effect on the proceedings. That is not permitted in any court of law in the United States. (03:29–03:34)

CLAIM

Asserts that no witness was identified as being intimidated by President Trump to the point of not coming forward.
