WASHINGTON, Nov 24 (Reuters) - U.S. House of Representatives Intelligence Committee Democrats have begun writing their report on the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump - a key step moving the process forward - but still may obtain more witness depositions and hold further hearings, the panel's chairman said on Sunday.

Representative Adam Schiff, who is spearheading the inquiry that threatens Trump presidency, said the Democratic-led committee would continue investigations as it works on the report after two weeks of public hearings with testimony from current and former U.S. officials. The panel has held five public hearings and has no more scheduled.

The report could pave the way for House consideration of articles of impeachment - formal charges - against Trump. If these are approved, the Senate, controlled by Trump's fellow Republicans, would then hold a trial on whether to convict the president and remove him from office.

Well they should have thought it through I guess. They are leading this country. Of course you and I know they are leading the U.S. to destruction, but they with their complicit cheerleaders, often mistakenly referred to as the press, are incapable of forecasting what their actions will result in.

The ultimate arbiter of impeachment is the American voter.

If they tune it out, and especially if the polls continue to swing to Trump, it’s over.

During Watergate the public was engaged as the story dripped out. Over two years. These Dims are committed to a vote by the end of December.

And there were actual crimes committed. And there was material evidence of the crimes.

The Dims have to sh!t or get off the pot. And they know it.

LOL. More hearings? I thought the case against Trump was “devastating” and he was done for.

This is an admission Democrats haven’t convinced the American people Trump needs to be removed.

Oh well back to the drawing board for Schiffhead.

[[They still don’t have a crime yet but will keep looking I’m sure.]]

Given enough time they will invent a crime even if they have to reinvent the English language to do so

“”””””Last week I was thinking they would actually vote to impeach, now I am not so sure. “””

I don’t think the President will be impeached because he would destroy every one of them with the Senate witnesses.

The democrats are going to drag this out. They do not have the votes. If they did, you would have seen a vote by now.

How ‘bout forces loyal to the president investigate dirtbag Adam Schitt?

That RAT has more skeletons in his closet than a 200 year old cemetery has bones.

“They still don’t have the votes.”

That’s the way I read it. Dummies have no idea about not digging bigger holes when standing in it.
