“The revelation could implicate the State Department more closely in the House of Representatives’ ongoing impeachment inquiry into Trump over his request to Zelensky during the call that Ukraine investigate his political rival, former Vice President Joe Biden. “
It’s not an impeachment inquiry.
There has been no House vote.
This is a Coup d’état. Period.

Not really. McCarthy put up a resolution disapproving of the impeachment inquiry. It was defeated twice and tabled. Since that is the counter position and was defeated, the Dems and Nancy can "deem" that the opposite position prevailed, and thus no need for a separate impeachment vote. McCarthy either screwed the pooch or he was in on it to enable the Dems to move forward. I tend to think it was the latter.
