The dims argue that the word “sole” is in the Constitution regarding impeachment, so they don’t have to abide by the courts.

Of course the Constitution also reads: “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

So “sole” gives the House the powers of the Judicial Branch?

But that would tear up the rest of the Constitution.

How can the House impeach Trump for "Obstruction of Congress"?
Impeaching for obstruction is the lower branch acting as if it has Judicial Branch powers
.
<><> it is the Constitutional right of the co-equal Judicial Branch to act as the arbiter;
<><> what if the House wants the WH to comply with summons and turn over what it says is important and pertinent documents?
<><> the White House/Executive as a co-equal branch says take it to the courts to decide.
<><> the House of Reps refuses, then demands that the Executive acquiesce to its demands.
<><> the House unconstitutionally acts as if it possesses those Judicial Branch powers to make the Executive comply;
<><> the House then moves to impeach for Obstruction of Congress when the Executive refuses to comply.
<><> under Constitutional law, the House does not possess these powers.
