Hoyer Statement on Baseless Accusations Against Former National Security Advisor Susan Rice
WASHINGTON, DC - House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today regarding baseless accusations by President Donald Trump against former National Security Advisor Susan Rice:
“I continue to be deeply disturbed by the baseless and irresponsible accusations leveled against former National Security Advisor Susan Rice by President Trump. His comments to the New York Times had no basis in fact and were made with a casualness that speaks to the President’s flippant attitude about the power of his words issued from the pulpit of the presidency. From his speculative and groundless tweets to his comments in interviews, the President must understand that he cannot accuse someone of criminal wrongdoing without any evidence. Former National Security Advisor Rice served our country with distinction, and there is zero evidence of any wrongdoing on her part. The President must apologize to her and to the country for making his baseless and defamatory accusations.”
