My guess is that they will try to pass a bill that formalizes the Impeachment hearing but does not offer the full due process protections that have been offered previous presidents.

Whether they can get enough people to vote for it. I don't know. Hopefully it dies Thursday.

Republicans need to be prepared to scream loud if they don't have enough time to review it and/or if it doesn't offer enough due process.

And the Republicans better still vote against it even if it offers due process, because there is no basis for this.

Pelosi might be using this as an out. Let the vote fail and wrap it up.

• They don't have a case. We would have heard more leaks from the last couple of witnesses if they did have.
• Investigating the Russian Hoax interference with the 2016 election is appropriate and not an impeachable offense.
• Investigating the obvious payoffs to the Biden's is not an impeachable offense whether he is running for office or not.
• Investigating the FISA abuse is not an impeachable offense.

They know it's going to fail in the Senate. And the Senate is about to repudiate them for the partisan investigation. My guess is that they are reading the polls and it's not good.

Or they’re beginning to realize that further investigation may send them all to jail. Best try to cut their losses and try to keep any more of their corrupt coup conspiracy from being exposed on cross-examination.

Why even have a hearing? Trump says “ok, I’m impeached” and it goes to the Senate to die. Actually, if Republicans in the senate were smart, they would get every piece of information they could and then kill the trial. Now use that information for indictments of Democrats.

That’s how you play ball.
