Democrat Nancy Pelosi’s delay in transmitting the articles of impeachment to the Senate “puts politics ahead of the US Constitution,” declares Peter Roff at Newsweek. Pelosi claims she wants to be assured the Senate will hold a “fair” trial, yet that’s the height of political hypocrisy, given that the House’s impeachment process was so “manifestly unfair.”
Besides, “if Harvard’s Noah Feldman is right and the president is not deemed to have been impeached until the articles are forwarded,” why should the Senate prepare for a trial? Pelosi just wants “another bite of the apple.”

Just as Bill Clinton gave us “the permanent campaign,” Pelosi and her allies are giving America “the permanent impeachment.” “Will it ever end?” asks Roff. “Probably not.”(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
THE FOUNDERS’ NIGHTMARE: DEMOCRATS FORGING AN EXTRA-LEGAL PATH TO TOTAL POWER OVER AMERICANS:
The rushed House articles were a means to an end – House lawyers could argue in court that all of the constitutionally contended material required as evidence for pending judicial proceedings....... a trial in the Senate. (hat tip conservative treehouse)
ITS SHOWTIME .....all the prior evidence debated for inclusion and legal additions to “articles of impeachment” were dropped. Instead the House focused only on quickly framing two articles that could facilitate pending court cases. Remember, the House never voted to “authorize the full judicial impeachment process;” they voted to approve an “inquiry” into whether an impeachment should take place.
MARK THIS WELL By not voting to authorize articles of impeachment the House never gained ‘judicial enforcement authority‘. The house wrecking crew have assembled a back-door attempt to position a valid claim for evidence against the accused without having first gained judicial authority for it.
