House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) is giving members of his committee just 24 hours to read and sign off on his report recommending articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump.
As Breitbart News reported Friday, House Judiciary Committee chairman Rep. Jerry Nadler has previewed the report, and suggested it will include claims of collusion with Russia as well as Ukraine, Russias enemy.
And as reported Saturday, Schiff will provide the full report to committee members on Monday, who must sign off on Tuesday in time for the first hearing in Nadlers committee on Wednesday, which will discuss the supposed constitutional and legal basis for impeachment.
It is a foregone conclusion that Democrats will sign off on Schiffs report. Evidence does not seem to be the top priority for Democrats: a majority favored an impeachment inquiry by August 1, eleven days before the so-called whistleblower sent a letter to Schiff complaining about Trumps phone call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.
However, as the Washington Examiners Byron York has noted, Democrats are in such a rush that they are leaving potential facts out of their examination. For example, they could wage a court battle to force former National Security Adviser John Bolton to testify.

I thought exactly the same thing. Whose side is he on?
Bitter Sore Loser Dims tried to delegitimize Trump with the Russia collusion hoax now trying to undo the greatest presidential election of my life with Shampeachment. There is no crime let alone high crime. Its an assault on Constitution and voters.
“I believe the IG report can refer potential crimes to the DoJ, but cannot investigate crimes, nor compel people to testify.”
They can only compel people to testify who are currently employed by the government.
Ol’ Schiff-fer-Brains seems to be getting desperate.
Looking forward to watching his frog-march performance when it comes.
The timing of indictments by US Attorneys should never be effected by an IG investigation.
There is no evidence of that.
Which means that actual support for the Demconcrats dropped 10 or more points if their polls were honest.

Agree, and if the GOP has a brain in its head it will skewer them in their "trial."
Handled properly, imagine the witnesses they could bring to the table.
“The IG cant indict anyone. I wish I was as hopeful that he refers a bunch of folks for indictment and the DOJ actually follows up, and does something.”
There should be some criminal referrals but the IG investigation is limited to interviewing federal employees.
A good number of people and most of the top National Security Division (NSD) has been fired or resigned and they are the people who are intimate to the Brennan coup efforts.
There’s a lot of overlap with US Attorney John Dowd which explains some of the delay in the FISA Abuse Report’s completion.
The hammer comes on the backside of this.
They think we’ll focus on Christmas and forget about this after the new year going into the election.
“By the way where in the hell is the Senate?”
Three Senate committees now investigating Burisa and the Biden Crime Family.
Official requests already submitted for scores of documents by Lindsay Graham for the State Department.
Sen. Graham also led the effort putting a pincer on the House obtaining 50 signatures that the House impeachment “inquiry” was crap and would be treated as same should it arrive up
If the Dems follow through with a vote on articles of impeachment, they will be scorched in the Senate.
If...
Schiff is a clown.
“What I dont get is the optics of voting for impeachment just before Christmas are absolutely awful.”
They may want it as a counter-narrative in the news throughout the holidays - something to distract from the revelations in the IG report.
They will likely make a ruckus, to distract the public from focusing on/learning of their scandals.
It will probably get worse, before it can get better.
Spot on the democrats knew if he was elected he would bypass them and end their kickback gravy train,it’s why they hate him so much.
He proves just how worthless and dangerous they are.
I surely hope I’m wrong, but I highly doubt there will be any indictments as a result of the much anticipated IG Report. Horowitz is a swamp guy. He isn’t going to take down the swamp. And it wouldn’t surprise me if he was paid a visit by some folks that expressed, in no uncertain terms, that his life depended on it. They got to Epstein and he was locked up.
He let McCabe walk after catching him lying on more than one occasion.
Gee, it sounds like something Pelosi would say, what a coincidence. Thanks E. Pluribus Unum.
CALL YOUR LEFT WING DELEGATES..........
I’ve seen the IG report - it says some people did something, move along nothing to see here. Meanwhile watch the news for 5 am raids and dramatic airport arrests of “corrupt Republicans” and anyone that supports them.
Schiff makes an excellent Totalitarian Dictator.
