(CNN) House Democrats are facing a time crunch to quickly wrap up their investigation into allegations President Donald Trump abused his office in pushing Ukraine to probe his political rivals, prompting growing expectations that votes on impeaching Trump could slip closer to the end of the year.
Some Democrats had hoped that a narrow probe -- focused on whether Trump put on ice efforts to bolster relations with Ukraine and provide US military aid to the country until it carried through with a political favor -- could conclude swiftly, with a potential vote to impeach Trump by Thanksgiving.
But that has proven to be more complicated than it initially seemed, according to multiple Democratic lawmakers and sources. The reason: Each witness has so far provided more leads for investigators to chase down, including new names to potentially interview or seek documents from. Plus, Democrats have had to reschedule several witnesses, including some this week in part because of memorial services for the late Rep. Elijah Cummings, and others because they needed more time to retain lawyers.

Of course it will “take longer”. That’s what it’s designed to do: run on into the general election season, so the ‘Rats can run against the “corrupt” Trump, with his “chaotic” administration staggering from “scandal to scandal”
Remember : Orange Man Bad
Wait, what?
No collusion?
No obstruction?
Now its all down to the phoney call?
They’re waiting for Writers from Hollywood to make things up
They want it to drag into 2020 so they can dirty the campaign with their lies and hallucinations.
Of course half the fun is yelling and screaming about how mean Trump lawyers delayed the investigation... :-)
Democrat Rule #1: Always blame somebody else, anybody else.
Rule #2: If that does not work, blame the Russians!
I blame Marcia!
Orange Man bad. What more evidence do you want?
Even if the Pubbies control the Supreme Court, the House, the Congress..the POTUS...
No one will touch that......Risking riots...and unrest.
Speaking of 2020 - - I wonder who the democrat nominee is going to be?? Its not anyone in the news cycle now. Nope.
In addition to the horrible prose (journalists can neither write nor report, the use of 'plus' is a carrying water word.
It is so laughably bad.
But basically 'Well we can't prove anything so ... we'll just say there is TOO MUCH evidence to conclude anything.'
Which comes out first- IG report or articles of impeachment?
The impeachment kangaroo court will continue in the House as long as McConnell and Graham continue to green light them by simply refusing to engage the Deep State coupists.
Lyin’ Lindsay has yet to have his promised hearings and I am not holding my breath waiting for them to happen.
The Democrats had to take a time out to come up with more new lies. The old ones didn’t work.
Heck, it takes time to manufacture and coordinate “facts”
“Im a soldier... in the war on pel lose ee.”
What have you done?
I listen to Rush (and have since 1988) when I can tolerate the constant commercials. I’m surprised that he thinks people are ‘seething’ about this impeachment business. I want them to bring it on and fall flat on their faces. I find it mildly humorous if i can bother to think about it at all.
Dont be surprised if Trump is doing the same thing with the FISA investigation and Russian hoax.
“Shut this Schitt Sham Show down. Now”.
I think it’s going to fizzle out. The Rats don’t want it to get to the Senate. Besides, they are scared to death of Discovery coming out of a trial.
They hope to hurt Trump’s numbers but it’s backfiring on them.
