Pelosi and Democratic House Moves Forward On Impeachment

By now, certainly you have heard the breaking news… House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has announced that she supports a formal impeachment inquiry. The announcement, which came following a meeting with the House Democratic Caucus, is the latest action in a growing controversy over a phone call President Trump had with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Pelosi said six Democrat-led panels, led by the Judiciary Committee, will continue to investigate the President under the “umbrella of an impeachment inquiry,” even if there is no full House vote just yet.

“Today, I’m announcing the House of Representatives is moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry,” Pelosi told reporters on Tuesday. “The president must be held accountable. No one is above the law.”

Her decision will divide the caucus as some members are concerned that waiting to have a formal impeachment vote will benefit Trump. Pelosi may have balked at a vote, which would help investigators get streamlined access to material, because there were not enough votes to reach a simple majority. Pelosi said she is asking committee leaders to send their findings to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, who can then submit articles of impeachment to the House floor.

The speaker effectively endorsed the process, which to some degree has already been underway, after facing fresh pressure from inside the caucus to act. The move could help Democrats’ disputed arguments in court that impeachment proceedings were in fact in progress, which could entitle Congress to obtain additional documents.

Schiff Admits That Republican Held Senate Will Never Impeach Trump

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., responded to Pelosi’s statement by noting that Democrats have been pushing to impeach Trump for years, for a variety of reasons. Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn, called the move by the Democrats a “colossal error,” and even Pelosi’s “comrade in arms,” Rep. Adam Schiff had said before the Speaker made her announcement, that the Senate would never convict Trump, even if the Democratically controlled House impeached him.

Speaking to CNN’s Jake Tapper, Schiff said, “Well, I would just say this, there is no chance of us persuading the Senate Republicans in an impeachment trial. They have shown their willingness to carry the president’s baggage, no matter how soiled its contents.”

For his part. the President has gone on a Twitter Tirade against the Democrats since Pelosi made the announcement, starting with a Tweet that simply said “Presidential Harassment!” Continuing with, “Such an important day at the United Nations, so much work and so much success, and the Democrats purposely had to ruin and demean it with more breaking news Witch Hunt garbage,” Trump wrote. “So bad for our Country!”

And finally adding, “They never even saw the transcript of the call. A total Witch Hunt!”

The White House claims it will release that transcript of the controversial July call today.

  1. No need for an investigation. Convict every Official in a Sanctuary City or State for violating their oath of office. Poof! No more CA wingnuts.

    That doesn’t even touch on the rest of her corruption.

  2. Investigate Congress and all their lies and phony accusations about our elected President!

    They should all be held accountable for lies and made up stories about our President! I believe Schiff’s made up phone call comments stated before Congress and the American peopl on national television are treasonous and he should be removed from Congress immediately!

  3. yea! i would love to see an investigation done on the dnc myself there’s one thing that’s a fact the rep’ could get america back to where it was and should be quicker than the president is trying to do …cause their wouldn’t be any dem. left to try and stop them cause they would all be in prison where they should be already… go TRUMP 2020

  5. I am sure Schiffty and Nadless have some skeletons in their closets, so let’s indict them and then go look into every aspect of their lives going back to grade school so we can convict them of cheating at dodgeball or sneaking a peek into the girls locker rooms…. These high crimes deserve removal from Congress. Or wait, maybe we should just fire them for failing to represent their constituents and do their legislative duties. As Tom Homan noted “I am a taxpayer. You work for me!” We did not pay them just to put on a three ring comedy circus. Get back to WORK, or get out.

  6. HEY, I AGREE, SHE, is a NUT CASE as are ALL of her cronies!!
    They keep using the phrase, “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW”, However, it seems, NO REPUBLICAN is above the Law!!! CLINTON & HER MOB, not so much have to follow anything they don’t want to!

  7. Hey DEMORATS look into the MIRROR & REALLY SEE THE GUILTY and in that MIRROR you WILL SEE CLINTON &
    OBUMMER and INBRACE YOURSELVES. I can smell you all from where I live. Pew Wee you stink & Weld you talks so Smart it could be you along with the DUMORATS.

  8. Just what in the hell is wrong with these people pushing impeachment? You would think they were smart enough to realize they don’t have the votes. Furthermore. They don’t have a crime. What a bunch of butt hurt idiots.

  9. I will never vote for a Democrat ever again. Even if it were family. Their desperation of the jackass party is disgusting as well as disturbing. Justice should be for all.

  10. Dear Ms Pelosi. You may want to investigate Congress members Omar and Tlaib in connection with recognized terrorist organizations that want to destroy more than an election bid. Since you refrained from impeaching these representatives given their questionable racist slurs, I think you could overlook an investigation looking into the questionable involvement and interests by the Biden clan, esp when Biden was in power and leveraged that for his son’s benefit. Would that not be considered an abuse of power? Check your own backyard 1st, you might find the actual dead skunk which your smelling out your front door.

  11. I think don is getting into the pockets of the left, it’s a communist group, to bad out young can’t think for them selves, read manifesto see all. Countries that it failed, you think your taxes are high now wate.

  12. Trump will be vindicated. The Tyranny-crats and the Criminal Left Media will find themselves eating very large piles of dog poopé when this is all said and done…

  13. Sad day for America when the d0-nothing dems would rather chase president Trump, than working to pass bills that would benefit America…
