“I don’t believe so,” stated Mace of the GOP-led effort.
“There are text messages, there are emails, there are witnesses, there are whistleblowers, there are meetings, there are phone calls, there are dinners.

“There’s no evidence of bribery,” Karl famous.
“There are witnesses, a 1023 form. There is evidence, you can’t say that there’s no evidence when there is evidence,” continued Mace, who cited an unverified tip and didn’t present any proof.
