For at least a week, most of what we have heard about it is the so-called "impeachment inquiry" against President Trump. I will note here that it has not gotten past me that Speaker Pelosi has NOT scheduled a vote on this. This reminds me of when she openly speculated she would "deem and pass" the legislation called Obamacare when she didn't yet know she had the votes she needed.
There is a lot of speculation as to why. I think the answer lies in something the Congressman Al Green said.
If we don't impeach him now, he will be re-elected.
What I don't get is why the Speaker won't bring this to a vote. In a way, it's clever. Yes, she caved to the Squad, but she's also protecting those Democrats who are the swing districts. OK, I've just answered my own question, but if you're going to make this a campaign issue then vote.
There is another reason being speculated on. A lot of dirt is about to make the light of day. Attorney General Barr has someone looking into this, who is threatening to produce more than Robert Mueller did and in less time at that.
We are in some very interesting times.
