I think Pelosi and the Democrats are right not to hold a house vote on the impeachment inquiry as more leaks and witnesses are showing up day by day. Let them drag this whole thing out so the GOP won't be able to twist the narrative to their advantage. And if they call it bullying, let them make themselves look like ineffectual crybabies while they're at it.

One hand, probably a good play. The others I wanted to watch Babyfists' epic meltdown.

Republicans will continue to provide them with evidence so they can never end the inquiry.

Pelosi: I'm going to purposely not get Trump over this.

CE trolls: "I'll get you next time, Trump!" Suck it, liberals! MAGA!

Never change, conservative trolls.

Yeah this is a smart thing to do, more and more evidence is coming and still need GOP on their side.

Of course MAGAhats will see this as owning the libs, because their galaxy brains can't comprehend any deeper thinking than memes.

This whole "have a vote now" thing is being pushed by the GOP to try to clamp down on impeachment early. The inquiry is still proceeding, as a vote is not even required to do so.

Are people purposefully misunderstanding this? There is no requirement to hold a vote on impeachment inquiry. The required vote is on impeachment, which happens after the inquiry.

Good. The worst thing they could do is rush a vote. Mitch is just going to punt it anyway: make him punt a mountain of dirt closer to election, let the polling trends continue and see if any of the softer Republican Senators get antsy. Continue crushing Susan Collins and Corey Gardner between a rock and a hard place.

I think the worst thing they can do is sit on this for too long. It'll just give Trump supporters ammunition to say "this is their 2020 campaign".

No, they want a vote that is not even required by the rules. There is no rule stating that you need to hold a house vote to start an impeachment inquiry. TC omitted "inquiry" from the topic title to troll everyone

In the last two impeachment procedures a house vote was performed to start the inquiry in the first place. This isn't stating that she isn't going to put impeachment up for vote at all, but that she's going to bypass precedence in not forcing people to vote on the inquiry at all.

Mitch can't punt it. He has to hold a trail and he doesn't have the votes for a sham trial.

The last impeachment of a president, yes. Not the last impeachment procedure.

I am not aware of any prior impeachment inquiry that was conducted without first being approved by house vote even though technically it doesn't have to be. There may be one, but if there is I haven't heard about it.

e.g., Samuel B. Kent? The only reason there was a vote on Porteous was because there was a new Congress because it had taken over a year, AFAIK
