Nancy knows they created a Hoax to entrap the president to punish him for winning an election. She knows the Hoax has been exposed and needs to do damage control and preserve what is left of the narrative. Anything more goes on the record in fine print that Trump was impeached for winning an election.
Donald Trump is a criminal. He should be impeached and removed from office. When he is no longer president, it's highly probable that he's going to be indicted.

Saying you aren't gonna do it because there's no public interest is idiotic. A politicians job is to convince others that their position is the right one. Not to be a fucking weather vane for an overwhelmed constituency.
Fuck you for justifying and backing her feckless lack of leadership, Dennison.
Uh, no it isn't.
But if it is, she's doing a really good job of convincing her caucus and the public that not moving on impeachment is the right position.

I’m tired and worn down from all this. Maybe Nancy will get something started after the long break when everyone has forgotten about Mueller and all of Trumps tirades. But who cares anymore. I didn’t even watch TV today. I need a break.
After listening to everything today, I'm convinced Nancy isn't going to do it unless more Democrats get on board (at least half of her caucus) or unless there is a swell of public outcry on the left. Think the women's march level of protest.
I am not optimistic.

Even Schiff and Lieu were sounding tepid in sound bites I heard this afternoon. Feels like every last one of them is complicit.
Today is a there isn't going to be an impeachment kind of day.
Yesterday moved one Democrat. Well over half of the caucus doesn't want to start proceedings. The public couldn't care less.
Maybe something will change over the break.

This is a great piece. The whole thing should be required reading but the TLDR is:
Someone should challenge her leadership.

It’s frustrating as fuck, but I think the worst possible outcome for America is to have 8 years for this conservative movement to cement its ideology into our national governance through controlling the executive branch, stacking the judicial branch and holding half the legislative branch.
It's conservative payback for getting thoroughly destroyed in the culture wars.

The impeachment inquiry move isn’t about removing Trump. It’s about wielding righteous power. There is no liability for the democrats to beginning the process now unless they have zero intention of ever impeaching Trump. With the way Trump is obstructing, they can drag the process out for at least a year and have some control over the media narrative while doing it.
There is no such thing as righteous power in politics. You win or you lose. Impeaching the president and not being able to remove him will be spun and portrayed as a failure from every single media outlet in the country. That's just the way it is.

DD exemplifies Pelosi and the Dem establishment.
"Why bother trying to do the right thing if we'll probably fail because the mean ole GOP in the Senate and WH?"
I'm of the belief that the only failure is failure to try.
In the late 18th century the Brits had the best military in the world, and the colonies were a rag tag bunch of farmers and traders. They could have easily said, "fuck it, no way we can win, so why bother?"
The decision to fight was literally life and death. All the Dems have to do is stand up to the bullies to show they are willing to make life hard on Trump, while rubbing the GOP's nose in their own shit instead of continuing to roll over time and time again.
They're pathetic.
You and I have the exact same position on impeachment.

All empires must end. Usually with a good measure of social and moral decay at the core. Internally generated divisions with external catalysts don't hurt either. America is not the center of the world, nor will the fate of our souls hang in the balance of the outcome of the empire.
Yeah, well, we're it for the foreseeable future. No one else is even close.

Lulz, what a brilliant headline, great job.
Nadler: The report not conclude that he did not commit obstruction of Justice.
Mueller: Correct
How many people have been investigated and found to be "not exonerated"?
You support a man who will probably be indicted when he leaves office.
Well done.
