Must be something about the season. Or the emotions the House generated has brought out the best in a lot of conservative writers. Anyway, another great article.

Nancy Pelosi, Not Trump, Is Provoking A Constitutional Crisis

FTA:
What happens next is anyone’s guess. Having conducted a thoroughly partisan impeachment inquiry in the House, Democrats want the Senate to pretend the process was fair and legitimate, and conduct a trial according to their terms. What if McConnell can’t get Pelosi to sign off on procedures for a Senate trial? Having denied Trump due process in the House, are Democrats also willing to deny him a speedy trial in the Senate, rights guaranteed to all Americans in the Fifth and Sixth Amendments?

We don’t know what will happen next, but we do know that Pelosi and the Democrats have introduced a new and virulent strain of partisanship to American politics, one they have relentlessly pursued since Trump won the 2016 election and that now risks provoking a constitutional crisis.

Here’s a new suggestion. They’re holding on to the articles of impeachment in order to add to them.

As Pelosi plays games with impeachment, what next for GOP?
