Heads up - Speaker Pelosi has introduced the resolution to terminate Emergency

[malaise]

She will speak in about 20 minutes.

Can't wait for the voting.

1. good ... dump needs to be stopped

hope we can get it passed

[beachbum bob]

2. sympbolic vote at best BUT places GOP on record which can be an issue now, in 2020 and

beyond.

[dalton99a]

3. Absolutely.

[beachbum bob]

6. the tactic from now until Nove 2020 is to marginalize trump AND GOP every way possible. Place them

on the defense on all things trump and hold 2-3dozen big time investigative hearings on CSPAN so americans see it all, unfiltered.

[malaise]

5. I get your point re symbolism but

this is a vote about separation of powers and checks and balances - it is very important.

[2naSalit]

10. +1

[edhopper]

8. Not symblolic

it forces the GOP and McConnell to vote FOR the Emergency. Which screws them, or makes them vote against Trump.

This is a big vote.

4. Pelosi's move in next week or 2 after the resolution goes nowhere is talk IMPEACHMENT,

place GOP on the defense to take the hit for trump.....constitution does not limit the times you can pass articles of impeachment.

This might BE a good first move. As a significant majority of American voters see trumps move as WRONG

[dalton99a]

7. +1. Impeach the motherfucker

and make Republicans defend him on the record

[beachbum bob]

13. usurping the constitution is a great way to throw an anchor around GOP's neck...

its a win-win for democrats.

The 4-6 weeks of hearings into emergency powers in the house for the articles of impeachment and presidential declarations....maybe throw in executive orders AND signing statements....

vote to pass the articles of Impeachment and let McConnel defend trump in the Senate trial.

MAKE this the story for 2-4 months...and then we can do the same when Mueller's report issues findings, when House subcommittees issues their findings.

Lets have impeachment party every 4 months until 2020 election

18. Why does everyone think this will go nowhere?

She is timing it to give the Senate repukes cover to vote against 45s non emergency when Cohen is testifying.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

9. Nancy Pelosi has Article 1 of the US Constitution as her defense......

As she goes on the offense with this resulting to stop Donald Trump. This will pass the House, even with some Republican votes for it.

It will then go to the US Senate with a Democratic Party majority vote. If no Republicans vote for this, it will say LOUDLY that Republicans have abdicated their responsibilities to a man who wants absolute power. The Legislative branch be damned. Mitch McConnell's life is about to get interesting.

11. +1

[beachbum bob]

14. make GOP defend presidential power grab, defend his impeachment in doing so

12. k and r...nt.

16. Watch the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief try to dodge this

by finally - 40 frikking years too late - sleazing his way to Vietnam to remind everyone of his legion shortcomings.
