On that question - with a follow from @AlexNBCNews - Nadler didn’t agree or disagree and merely recited all the actions is committee is taking. “Whatever you want to call that, it’s what we’ve been doing.” — PolitiTweet.org

Rebecca Kaplan @RebeccaRKaplan

.@npfandos asks Nadler whether his committee is beginning to shade into an impeachment inquiry even if a formal vote hasn’t been held - an argument I’ve heard privately from some members. “Smart boy,” said @RepCohen in response to the Q. — PolitiTweet.org

“I don’t know that there are real divisions with the speaker,” @RepJerryNadler says, as he is surrounded by members who want to proceed with an impeachment inquiry even as @SpeakerPelosi is resisting those calls. https://t.co/OAg9K0pUPI — PolitiTweet.org

More @SpeakerPelosi on impeachment: "We will proceed when we have what we need to proceed. Not one day sooner. And everybody has the liberty and the luxury to espouse their own position and to criticize me for trying to go down the path in the most determined, positive way." — PolitiTweet.org

The budget and debt ceiling deal passes by a vote of 284 yeas to 149 yeas. 219 Democrats and 65 Republicans voted yes/ 16 Dems and 132 Republicans voted no. .@LeaderHoyer walked by before they finished the vote and said with delight, “We passed it on our own!” — PolitiTweet.org

The House is voting now on the bipartisan budget deal to prevent automatic spending cuts from hitting in FY20 and FY21, and to suspend the debt limit through the end of July in 2021. Broad support expected among House Dems, but not House Rs - despite Trump's public support. — PolitiTweet.org

Congress *may* get something done ahead of deadline, which is, frankly, stunning. U.S. would have run out of money in early September, per Treasury, and automatic spending cuts will take hold on Oct. 1 if no deal is passed to avert them. — PolitiTweet.org
