runs the show in the House and the Constitution does not call for a vote on an impeachment inquiry. Why the hell are we Dems allegedly dividing into factions on what the Speaker has decided?

Who cares what repugs demand about an inquiry vote? They are in the minority in the House and don't run the show anymore.

They'll get their vote on the Articles of Impeachment and the Dems calling for a vote need to learn about party unity.
