WASHINGTON—House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she is directing an impeachment inquiry into President Trump following reports that the president withheld aid to Ukraine while he was pressing the country to investigate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son.

“Today, I’m announcing the House of Representatives is moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry,” Mrs. Pelosi said in the Capitol, in front of several American flags. “The action taken to date by the president appears to violate the constitution.”...

Pelosi has authority to order an inquiry but does not have authority to order an impeachment investigation. An impeachment investigation must be voted on by the full House and is what is necessary for the corrupt Nadler, Schiff and Black Boy Lewis etc to be able to suppoena documents. This is just more play on words like Nadler tried to do. It is a “photo op” but has no meaning in law until the whole House votes on an impeachment investigation. With the corrupt Dems, I see no future for this country without a civil war.

An inquiry is the same nonsense she has going til now..there is NO vote because she knows she doesn’t have the votes..nothing has changed..its just meat for her commie base, if she had the votes she would vote on it today..in fact if I were a Republican in the House Id do the impeachment vote today, see how many Dems in the House want to impeach him today

Wait till they find out President Trump didn’t start it. That the officials from Ukraine have been trying to contact the White House for months telling them of the concern (and documentation) they had on the corruption of Biden, Clinton and the DNC.
Finally they went through the state department. Rudy met their official in Spain for copies of the documentation

Don’t be surprised to find out the conversation was about extradition to the Ukraine for US citizens.

Nothing there, clear of any wrong-doing but yet, the dems will press to impeach when there is no hint of an impeachment action. . .dems will vote impeach absent any facts or charges, they don’t need that, they just vote to impeach and that’s it.

There’s a Democrat representing a district in Minnesota that Trump won by almost 35 points in 2016. That guy might vote to impeach Trump simply because it’s probably his last term in office no matter how he votes.

Pelosi Announces Impeachment Inquiry of President Trump

What it means to me, is that I just made a big donation to the President's Re-Election Fund!

‘She may have the votes in the House but there are not enough votes in the Senate. Right?’

there is no chance whatsoever of the Senate will vote to convict a charge of impeachment from the lower chamber...

The House can impeach the President for anything it wants to, real or imagined. "High crimes and misdemeanors" has no definition, therefore it means whatever the leadership of the House wants it to mean. Articles of impeachment are passed by simple majority vote of members of the HOR present and voting.

If Nazi Pelosi wants to impeach the President, she can. For whatever reason.

The only real question is whether or not there are enough Members of Congress dumb enough (or insane enough) to go along with her.

I told folks a year ago if the 'Rats gained control of the House, she'd try it. Here we are.
