Congress spent $3.06 million on failed impeachment probe

According to a new report, Congress added $3 million to the legislative branch's already exorbitant $1.3 trillion annual budget for the failed impeachment of Donald Trump. The $3 million tally is a conservative estimate, since it does not yet include the impeachment costs run up during the Senate trial in January and February. It also does not factor in overtime pay for Capitol Police, witness travel expenses, or supplies and materials required for the hearings and trial. Adding the impeachment spending to the $32 million spent on the Mueller investigation, the taxpayer has been billed a total of $35 million for the two investigations, neither of which resulted in bipartisan findings of presidential wrongdoing.
