Its all there for us on a platter.

If the situation were reversed, Republicans would be falling all over themselves in glee that we left them with so much material to use against us. And actual provable, fact based, criminal activity!

But Nancy wants to limit themselves to a "narrow focus" and a short time period. Just chew gum, its too complicated to walk as well.

They are vastly mistaken if they think that all they have to do is find the most provable instance of impeachable behaviour, extortion of a foreign official for political gain, which they have done already, and that will be enough for most Americans to commit to next November voting D. Turn former Trump supporters.

Public hearings MUST continue. And yeah, a good place to start the second round is with obstruction of justice, with his orders for witnesses not to testify, plus his tweet intimidating actual witnesses.

This impeachment hearing has revealed the most corrupted President, and even top R party brass, being complicit in history. It is of monumental importance to rid the country of him. Yet Democrats seem to be under the assumption that the MSM will carry the torch for them now. No, no they won't . If they actually are going to wrap it up now, they will hand everything to Mitch, who then will be in charge. And he will make sure it is finished with quickly and give very minimum time for Democratic questioning. It will all be over before Christmas, and by February first, all will be forgotten, as the MSM will be 3 news cycles on, and peddling some other new story.
