| If an impeachment vote even gets out of the House, the vote to impeach will be voted down in the Senate. |

| The survey found; 58 percent of Americans— 80 percent of Democrats 30 percent of Republicans 49 percent believe the House should call for the president to be removed from office.
say House Democrats were correct to launch a formal impeachment inquiry into Trump.
Within days of news that Trump pressured Ukraine to investigate Biden, support for impeachment among House Democrats jumped from a slim majority, with approximately 160 members in favor just two weeks ago, to over 220.

We won't hear what the inquiry will "bring to light" until the house is brought to the floor for a vote .. Until then, the impeachment inquiry is illegitimate and just more theatrics by democrats, much like the "impeachment hearings" Nadler has been staging for several months, pointlessly rehashing the Mueller report
Until the house is brought to a vote, the democrats are dry humping with their allegations and subpoenas ...Until there's a vote, republicans are unable to subpoena their own witnesses and allow the hearings to be public ... Dems are tryin' to do everything behind closed doors and selectively leaking what they want to their lap dog media
Eventually the truth will unavoidably come out as another bogus attempt by dems to undermine the the president the people voted for and kill their chances of any of the buffoons they have running for the next election

| Democrats launch new impeachment offensive after White House refuses to cooperate NBC News GARRETT HAAKE AND GEOFF BENNETT AND REBECCA SHABAD AND ALEX MOE AND HALEY TALBOT Oct 10th 2019 4:04PM
WASHINGTON — To circumvent White House efforts to impede the House impeachment inquiry, Democrats have launched a fresh offensive to bury the White House with numerous subpoenas and request for interviews with people who no longer work in the administration.
Democrats issued additional subpoenas for testimony and relevant documents Thursday from two associates of Giuliani who helped him in Ukraine, Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas. They were requested to appear for depositions on Thursday and Friday before Congress, but they were arrested Wednesday night and face charges tied to campaign finance violations.
Since House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., formally announced the impeachment inquiry last month, Democrats have so far issued eight subpoenas and requested documents from Vice President Mike Pence.
Others who have been subpoenaed include Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, Defense Secretary Mark Esper, Office of Management and acting Budget chief Russell Vought and U.S. ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland.
A number of these officials had failed to comply with previous requests from Congress to either appear for testimony before lawmakers or share relevant documents and communications.
In an attempt to further block Democrats from seeking information, the White House said Tuesday that it would not turn over internal documents about Ukraine, arguing that they won’t comply with what they consider to be an invalid investigation.
Democrats plan, as a result of the White House’s stonewalling, to deploy a new strategy by requesting interviews with former administration officials whom they believe have pertinent information. Some of the requests will not be announced publicly, the sources said.
Committee chairmen plan to target these former officials because the administration has already tried to silence people who still work under it. Sondland, for example, did not show up for the deposition that was scheduled on Tuesday for him to deliver closed-door testimony after the State Department directed him not to speak to Congress.
Former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch is scheduled to testify behind closed doors for her deposition on Friday, but because she still works for the State Department, it's possible she may not show up either. Two congressional sources involved with the impeachment inquiry told NBC News that, as of now, they are still expecting Yovanovitch to appear for her deposition before the House Intel, Oversight and Foreign Affairs Committees.
Following Sondland’s absence, Democrats sent him a subpoena that ordered him to appear for a deposition on Oct. 16.
Democrats believe that former administration officials, however, who are now private citizens, would not fall under the White House claims of executive privilege. Kurt Volker, who recently resigned as U.S. special envoy to Ukraine, testified before Congress last week, several days after he left the administration.
On Monday, Trump’s former Russia adviser, Fiona Hill, volunteered to meet in a closed-door session with several congressional committees. A letter addressed to Hill, obtained by NBC, requested that she turn over several documents that date back to January 2017.
Congress returns next week from a two-week recess and Democrats are expected to speed up their investigation that could lead them filing articles of impeachment against the president. Two sources told NBC News that Pelosi will hold another caucus-wide conference call on Friday afternoon so rank and file members can receive an update about the impeachment inquiry. |

| White House accidentally sends Ukraine talking points to Democrats again Mike Lillis and Juliegrace Brufke | MSNBC | 1 hr ago
The White House accidentally sent Democrats a list of talking points related to ex-Ukraine Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch's Friday House deposition, two sources with knowledge of the email told The Hill, the second time in a month the administration has sent its Ukraine talking points to Democrats.
The email included guidance for Republicans seeking to defend the president from potentially damaging witness testimony from an ambassador who was removed from her post in May under controversial circumstances.
In copies of the guidance shared with The Hill, The White House encouraged Republicans to adopt a series of messages designed to turn the tables back on Democrats, including attacks on House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff's (D-Calif.) handling of the probe.
Yovanovitch told House lawmakers that she was removed after "a concerted campaign against" her from President Trump and his allies.
She also said in her opening statement that the State Department had "been under pressure from the president to remove me since the summer of 2018."
Yovanovitch's ouster came two months before Trump's July 25 phone call with the Ukrainian president - now at the center of Democrats' impeachment inquiry - in which Trump asked Kiev to open an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading 2020 presidential candidate.
"We are not concerned with any information Yovanovitch might share, because the President did nothing wrong," the White House email meant for Republicans said. "But we are concerned that Schiff is putting her a precarious position by having her testify in secret without State Department lawyers be present." "It raises serious questions about why Schiff is willing to put career officials in such risky situations while bullying them with legally unfounded threats of obstruction charges," the email continued.
It added that Schiff "is willing to ride roughshod over fair process and to use career officials to further a baseless political objective."
The email marks the second time the White House has unintentionally sent talking points to Democrats in recent weeks, after an administration official inadvertently emailed them suggested rhetoric defending the July 25 phone call.
The White House did not immediately respond to The Hill's request for comment. |
