Since Issa is a member of the House of Representatives, he has no ability to commence impeachment.

The House is responsible for bringing articles of impeachment -- for any federal officer. Essentially, they serve as a grand jury.

The Senate is then responsible for convicting the federal officer. They act as a trial jury.

Thank-you for posting.

I just wish there were more House members with an “R” after their names who had some backbone.
