She would hold the vote if she was confident it would pass.

She’s not, and just watch while Potus Trump points this exact thing out to the world in an upcoming tweet.

Somewhere in a Lousiana swamp are the democrat asses lost in the recent election.

Then Pelosi stood against impeachment

[SharpRightTurn]

“Trump’s admission that he pressured Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter”

These two Hill hacks allege, without evidence, that Trump “admitted” he pressured Ukraine.

More lies, distortions, and fake news.

Can't some Republican call for a vote, and wouldn't it then have to be tabled or otherwise dispatched? A voice vote would occur on the motion to table and then a roll call vote could be demanded.

What am I missing?

Maybe the Louisiana election results helped them understand, that we are not amused and are playing for keeps.

She is still trying to protect the moderates and I think, the Rats think they have enough evidence in the transcript. In their minds, all the Rats need is a little more committee work, do the vote to impeach and call it a day. The Rats would be much better off doing a formal censure than this nonsense (Note: I do not think Trump did anything wrong).

Scott Wong is just....

[eyedigress]

Nancy blinked

Yes she did.....

[fwdude]

“We have to impeach Trump before we can find out what he has done.” Nancy Pelosi

LOL! Post of the month. Bravo!!!!

[MustKnowHistory]

“Nancy blinked”

Please explain...

[mrsmith]

The lying Hill doesn’t mention that she needs the vote to have enforceable subpoenas LOL!

The media is too busy pretending “requests” are subpoenas so they can all shout “coverup!”

[fwdude]

Demon-rats have perfected the art of “lawfare,” and this is exactly what is going on.

They will throw a lot more unfounded, fake stuff at the wall to see what sticks, forcing the accused to spend time, resources and energy on a defense, not to mention possibly being demoralized by the process.

And lawfare requires a long, drawn out process to starve the accused before the battle is even fought.

They do this because there is nothing to lose, they pay no consequence. That needs to change.

[Political Junkie Too]

Nancy blinked

Impossible with all that Botox.

If they put the impeachment vote to the entire house, and if it passed and went to the Senate, the Senate would acquit QUICKLY long before November 2020. Pelosi wants to drag this out for another 13 months.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

So Nancy was lying when she said:

NPR Sept. 24, 2019 -- "Therefore, today, I am announcing the House of Representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry. I am directing our six committees to proceed with their investigations under that umbrella of impeachment inquiry."

[V V Camp Enari 67-68]

I, like many here, believe that the Louisiana Republican vote deluge has caught the seasoned Dems attention.

[italianquaker]

Well than her and President Trump agree on something.
This is a win win for his re-election

Does this mean that the commie democrat party congress persons will now do the job that they were elected to do, like the business of their voters? The public has every reason to expect all govt workers to do their jobs, from custodial to the President. Every employee of the US govt receives their paycheck from the US Treasury, TAXPAYERS, not from a political party. The commie democrat party is thieving taxpayer funds to take out the President of the US and neglecting their duty to serve the voters they represent. All involved in this treasonous use of govt institutions should be put on suspension from their job and pay withheld till they prove their innocence. As is now the norm for Republicans who are considered guilty until the can prove innocence.
