I spent a significant amount of time reading something like 120 pages of the counterintelligence report of the Special Counsel and the forensics is there. The forensics of the investigation traced the illegal activity of Russian spies of two different Russian intelligence agencies right into their own computers. The footprint into the hacking of the DCCC and the Clinton Campaign lead to the extensive information that lead to the investigation begun by the FBI under James Comey.
There is too many FACTS. This attempt to discredit the USA intelligence agencies is a plot all by itself and it is announced today because of the storming of the hearing room as if something really nefarious is going on. This is an attempt to discredit the impeachment.
Interestingly, the current information gathered by the US House is about Trump's wrongdoings while still in office and has nothing to do with the Russia investigation. He can't worm his way out of this one.

DOJ had previously considered it to be an administrative review, and it’s unclear when the probe transitioned to a criminal investigation....
