1. im.ready

to get this moving. My guess is, with the public attention span, support for impeachment will not increase but most likely decrease.

[dewsgirl]

2. 😒

[jimlup]

3. Plus he has the votes so he is moving forward

[Hermit-The-Prog]

12. well, at least we ain't got locusts

[George II]

4. Great news. Can't wait for the report. Now, will all those who complained that Pelosi, et. al....

....were moving "too slow" PLEASE apologize?

Our Democratic leaders were setting up their case, not twiddling their fingers or wringing their hands. They're not LEADERS for nothing!

On to the House Committee on the Judiciary and then to the Senate.

[malaise]

5. Ha

Justice is coming

[myohmy2]

17. +1

...

[orleans]

6. gee... i wonder how the committee will vote

[reACTIONary]

28. A real cliff-hanger! I'm on ...

... Pins and needles !!!

[Progressive Jones]

7. As exciting as this is, I don't think that

there has been enough public display of evidence.
Is the Mueller Report off the table?

[TrogL]

10. The main evidence is a timeline

Unfortunately Fox News is telling the entire thing backwards.

[Progressive Jones]

16. Of course they are. nt

[DENVERPOPS]

35. Or noticeably

Or noticeably only showing segments when a republican is asking a question or more realistically giving out the right wing talking points......

what a travesty..............

[LiberalFighter]

32. Expect a lot more coverage by the media when it goes to the Senate.

[AZ8theist]

8. Party line vote..

It was a foregone conclusion that it would move out of committee. Now the real fun starts in Judiciary where all of his treason, financial crimes and obstruction will be on full display. I really like Schiff, but I'm really going to enjoy Chairman Nadler!!

[ancianita]

24. I'm worried that Nadler will let Gym Jordan get too much mouth play. I want him shut UP.

[Karma13612]

27. Yea, I also worry about Nadler just a bit.

When we had earlier public hearings with Nadler, I noticed that he does get a bit flustered sometimes. I hope he is on his A game this time around. If not, we could lose the perception of an edge despite having the majority vote in the House. I am also worried about Rep Collins who has already stirred up a $h!tstorm before the first hearing on Wednesday.

I know we won’t get a conviction, but I do look forward to the (hopefully) inevitable impeachment.

[ancianita]

29. I hope he sees how well Schiff's tough, tight method to shut gopers up can work for him. They'll

push back. But he, as Judiciary Chair, should have them removed for obstructing the impeachment articles.

Obstructing. Must. Stop.

[Karma13612]

37. Agree! N/t

[yellowdogintexas]

33. Is Gym Jordan on Judiciary too?

Geez, what does it take to shut his damn mouth ?

[ancianita]

34. Unfortunately, he was put in both Intel and Judiciary. What I hope it takes is removing him.

[OhioVoterBlue]

9. I'm ok with

A party line vote, as long as the report from Schiff makes it easy for voters in those districts that will decide to reelect or dump their idiot reps based on facts. "Reelect me bc I used to be in favor of the founders, and now I'm on the side of fifth columnists".

[sprinkleeninow]

11. I'm ambivalent. That's just me.

Remember the looks on the faces of Di-Fi and grassley upon emerging from that meeting two years ago?

Wonder if what they saw/heard would be revealed if it was so disturbing to have kinda shaken them.

[murielm99]

13. I keep thinking about that, too.

There must be more. There has to be more. I think there should be more articles of impeachment, too. He has done so many criminal things and more of those need to be investigated.

[sprinkleeninow]

14. Yes, I know. That's why the ambivalence.

I am conflicted as to why they're issuing this at a point like you stated of having so much more criminality he committed.

I pray to God [I do] that our leadership conducting this serious matter is on the perfect path. Mb I been reading an excess of both sides of views and opinions. I just feel somewhat uncomfortable and want it gotten resolved
properly.

[dewsgirl]

20. I keep thinking that there is more and they don't want to/are

afraid to release it publicly, "for the public good". As if the public couldn't handle it. I would bet my life on the fact, they have to be very aware of Trump's Russia collusion and all it entails. Some of them have seen the actual Mueller Report.

[Tarheel_Dem]

15. That seems way too soon. Didn't a Judge just rule that McGahn can testify? Why the rush?

I don't feel good about this. If McGahn has been compelled, there are certainly more witnesses (like Bolton) who can be subpoenaed as well.

[progressoid]

22. Exactly.

This isn't going to be enough to get the public on board.

[mwooldri]

25. Though judge did rule that way, WH (or DOJ) appealed.

House Democrats don't want to hang around and have things dragged out through the courts.

[Tarheel_Dem]

36. Surely the courts could expedite cases that will determine whether or not a sitting POTUS will...

be impeached and possibly removed from office. It just seems to me that the import of such a case would take precedence over just about anything.

[myohmy2]

18. as we...

...play serious and chase the impeachment facts, trump and the republicans are attacking and discrediting the process as partisan...

...we have a slight problem...

...our leaders haven't been responding harshly enough in the impeachment political arena for not wanting to make it look partisan confirming the republican 'partisan' lie...

...what we need are non-impeachment participating Dems to blast not trump, but to more aggressively blast all republicans that attack and discredit the impeachment process...

...call out their patriotism, call out their morals, call out their intelligence...call them traitors, call them whatever you want, but call out and challenges these bastards more strongly in the political arena...

...we're winning the legal but we're coming up short on the political...

...IMO...

[BlueWI]

31. Good points.

Supporting impeachment is a responsibility for everyone who believes in the rule of law. We the public and our non-committee reps have a job to do.

[Buns_of_Fire]

19. It remains to be seen what juvenile nickname Rump will come up with for Jerry Nadler.

But with Gym Jordan, Louie Gohmert, and Matt Gaetz on the Judiciary Committee, I imagine we'll be treated to new and exciting levels of dumbfuckery.

I suggest that, to protest the unfair treatment of their messiah, they set themselves on fire the very first day. Just a suggestion.

[dewsgirl]

30. He already did. "Fat Jerry."😔

[KPN]

21. Booyah! Pedal to the metal. Let's go!

[Mc Mike]

23. Thanks Rep Schff. We're with you Adam.

[at140]

26. It's a done deal...hooray!

Now on to the Judiciary committee...
