@nycbubbles @warmh20penguin @magi_jay What happened was an unprecedented new act of corruption. It wasn’t the conclusion of some House investigation or a new reading of the Mueller Report. Again, have the last six months made you feel like Pelosi was undecided on impeachment? — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@warmh20penguin @magi_jay I mean, Pelosi literally said today that she didn’t want to do this. If your take from the last six months is that Democrats were just in the middle of a process and that, at the end of that process, Pelosi may support impeachment, we’re just not going to agree. — PolitiTweet.org

@magi_jay I do think there’s a pretty reasonable distinction between calling you delusional and calling that thread delusional, but I’m glad you feel vindicated tonight. — PolitiTweet.org

Seemed like a good night to get back on Gossip Girl, and the high schoolers are playing Wii in the background of this very fancy party, which is the only period-accurate component about this high school party. — PolitiTweet.org

Love to see people dunking on me for old tweets where I said Pelosi opposes impeachment. Yes, you got me. The president asking Ukraine for political dirt on Joe Biden was all part of Pelosi’s plan. At no point were you guys wrong about Pelosi and her support for impeachment. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
So is it the President’s position that he won’t sign legislation as long as he’s under threat of impeachment? Seems a lot more like him destroying the chances of legislative progress than it is Democrats. Haven’t heard a single Democrat say the House should stop passing bills. — PolitiTweet.org

A ton of new impeachment enthusiasm in the House tonight. But there are also lots of ways this stalls out. At this point though, if the Ukraine story is as damning as it seems — not a bad bet with Trump — it looks like the House is headed to impeachment. https://t.co/cLxvCjFJUY — PolitiTweet.org

Where we're at: Nothing has technically changed on impeachment, but politically, this dog'll hunt. https://t.co/cLxvCjFJUY — PolitiTweet.org

@KyleOrl I think more important than Pelosi’s support is the material allegation, which is what brought us here in the first place. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@KyleOrl People on the left have also argued that we’re already doing an impeachment inquiry. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
I do want to be clear about this, because my position is definitely not that nothing has changed on impeachment. Politically, we're in different territory now. Trump's behavior brought us here. But on a legislative level, Pelosi is *still* taking this very slowly. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
I have to say Rep. Jared Huffman makes a good point on Pelosi and her support for an impeachment INQUIRY: “She’s been crystal clear in the last many months that you don’t start an inquiry unless you got the goods, and unless you’ve got the votes to get it over the finish line." — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Already seeing pushback from people claiming that, no, Pelosi is backing impeachment and there’s no difference between support for impeachment and support for an impeachment inquiry, idiot. We’ve spent months in the House arguing over these semantics. They’re not insubstantial. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
OH in the Capitol basement: “This is so dumb.” — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
We will now proceed with the impeachment inquiry stage, which we were supposedly already in, but we won’t be voting on the inquiry, because, again, we’re already in that stage, but now the inquiry has Pelosi’s support. Confused? Frustrated? Welcome to Congress. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@buymoriaking The semantics are extremely important. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
I think this quote from Pramila Jayapal on Pelosi sums up the impeachment confusion the best: “I think she’s saying full steam ahead on an impeachment inquiry, which you know, obviously we're in an impeachment inquiry, but there has been some confusion.” — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
So, to recap: -Pelosi has backed an impeachment INQUIRY -Unclear If they’ll vote on opening an impeachment inquiry on the floor -Unclear If they’ll vote on impeachment -Unclear If Pelosi supports impeachment A lot of smoke at this point, very little fire. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Pelosi emphasizes that she’s supporting an impeachment INQUIRY. I remember this whole argument that Democrats were *already* in an impeachment inquiry stance. No plan for floor vote (yet). It’s early here, but unclear that anything substantively or statutorily has changed. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@PeterSullivan4 Great Roll Call story. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Everyone seems to be taking “impeachment inquiry” to mean impeachment, which isn’t necessarily a mistake — I actually do think Pelosi is serious this time — but man, we’ve seen Democrats play a lot of games with this phrase... — PolitiTweet.org
