Whistle-Blower’s Complaint Is Said to Involve Multiple Acts by Trump

 That's not a Constitutional argument, but rather a societal standards argument.  As there is no appeal to impeachment or removal, there really is no limitation on Congress except what we deem it to be.

Let me ask.  Is violating House rules a violation of the Constitution or no?
