“The House of Representatives...shall have the sole Power of Impeachment.”
(ARTICLE I, SECTION 2, CLAUSE 5)
“The word “impeachment” is popularly used to indicate both the bringing of charges in the House and the Senate vote on removal from office. In the Constitution, however, the term refers only to the former.”

Disagree. The context of the Constitution refers to Congress’s power with the House as the sole body that can initiate the process and the Senate as the sole body that ends the process of impeachment.
No other body can initiate other than the House, no other body can decide its outcome other than the Senate.
If there is no Senate on the end of it, then impeachment is meaningless making it as important as flea dust on a carpet: it’s nothing.
Pelosi can start impeachment on anything her caucus wants. She can start to impeach the building’s janitor. She can start to impeach her shadow. But if she is going to start an impeachment of the President, she has to include the Senate. If she doesn’t include the Senate, then it’s not an impeachment, it’s a farce which most know is what it truly is in this case.
