OH in the Capitol basement: “This is so dumb.” — PolitiTweet.org

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

@buymoriaking The semantics are extremely important. — PolitiTweet.org

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

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

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

@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

If you were ranking rooms where the most consequential decisions have been made in the last 10 years, HC-5 is a good bid to be in the top 20. — PolitiTweet.org

On a scale of 1 – “Are We Shutting Down The Government?”, the franticness outside of the room where Democrats are meeting right now is about a “We Might Have The Votes To Repeal Obamacare.” — PolitiTweet.org

NFL head coaches have clock management, but congressional reporters have CELL PHONE BATTERY MANAGEMENT. You tell me which is the more important life skill. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

Democrats seem to be locking onto the argument that they don't really need additional investigation into the Ukraine phone call because Trump has already admitted to many of the material facts. "He's become his own witness," Pramila Jayapal says. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

Asked whether Pelosi's reluctant approach to impeachment has been vindicated, or whether they still have a problem with her slow-walking the process to this point, the Congressional Progressive Caucus chairs decline to bash Pelosi. Jayapal: "The point is, where are we at now?" — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

The other CPC co-chair, Pramila Jayapal, says there's been a "seismic shift" on impeachment. “There is really no other remedy other than impeachment." — PolitiTweet.org

Congressional Progressive Caucus co-chair Mark Pocan says Trump's behavior is an "overt breaking of the law." "Clearly puts this in textbook corruption mode." — PolitiTweet.org

I sincerely believe Trump is gonna basically offer to act on guns and prescription drugs in exchange for the House not impeaching him. I truly believe that’s how this man’s brain works. — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Fuller @MEPFuller

One thing I’ll say about the current impeachment movement in the House is that Democrats certainly had a high bar. You can’t accuse them of rushing into this. This was a painfully reluctant conclusion that they only came to because Trump’s actions are so blatantly impeachable. — PolitiTweet.org

On the one hand, the President of the United States seems to have used $250 million of taxpayer dollars in order to get a foreign government to provide dirt on a potential political opponent. On the other hand, Joe Biden’s son might not be the best candidate for President. — PolitiTweet.org
