A key House panel will hold a series of hearings beginning next week on the revelations laid out in the Mueller report, along with testimony from key legal experts, including a former prominent White House lawyer from the Richard Nixon era.
Witnesses will include the likes of former White House counsel John Dean, who worked for President Richard Nixon during the crux of the Watergate scandal that later led to impeachment proceedings, and other unnamed"former U.S. Attorneys and legal experts," according to the Judiciary Committee. Committee Chairman of U.S. House Judiciary Committee Rep. Jerry Nadler speaks to members of the press on May 29 in New York City.The public events, the first of which will be June 10, will play a crucial role in Democrats' ability to convince the American people that the House should open an impeachment inquiry into the president, as a growing number of party members have called for since the Mueller report's release.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, along with other Democratic leaders in the chamber, have continued to downplay impeachment talk. Speaking at a Commonwealth Club event shortly after Mueller reiterated his report could not exonerate Trump of any criminal wrongdoing, the California Democrat cautioned her party.
😂😂😂😂😂at least you can call the Democrats the party of hearings. But not one action of accountability, and put those FAKE ASS subpoenas away if your not going to lock up those not answering them.
The people are already convinced!

New activist campaign puts impeachment pressure on House DemocratsA liberal activist group is ramping up pressure on Democratic congressional leaders with a new campaign to begin impeachment proceedings against President Trump. For what again, I lost track... 1/2: Impeachment only works if both the House and Senate agree that a president is unfit serve office. There are three branches of government. The Judicial Branch has yet to weigh in. Then subpoenas will be honored. Testimony given. Good, I as a Republican voted Democrat in 2018 because I wanted oversight. I’m beyond tired of the lack of spine & weakness the Democrats have shown regarding this issue. Trump & GOP are outmaneuvering them. D’s need to hire PR firm & work on messaging.

Liberal activist group seeks to pressure House Democrats into impeaching TrumpThe growing number of calls for impeachment from activist groups could put the Democratic Party in a more politically difficult situation, with leadership concerned that such a divisive process could place Democrats in swing districts in peril come 2020. Someone needs to. They are ignoring their responsibilities. Actually, what has happened in the last week should be enough for Pelosi to decide to go ahead with the impeachment process. Notice that outside groups did not have to pressure the GOP into impeaching Clinton or investigating emails, Benghazi, Fast & Furious or IRS. Let’s face facts, Dems are not good with political power, they flinch in the face of hardball politics & bring slingshots to gun fights.

House and Senate Democrats seek Trump financial records in lawsuitDemocrats from the House and Senate have told a federal judge they'd like to begin pursuing President Donald Trump's personal financial records and corporate records next month as part of a lawsuit over his business properties. 🙄 lol Why? There’s no reason for them to get them. I’d like to see financial records for all of them. They come in to office and become millionaires in just a few years. Doesn’t that make you wonder CNN? A real news organization would investigate that fact.

Disaster aid bill worth $19.1 billion blocked again in HouseThe U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday failed again to pass a $19.1 billion disaster aid bill supported by President Donald Trump after a Republican lawmaker objected to the measure. Following Senate passage of the legislation last Thursday by a vote of 85-8, House Democratic leaders had hoped GOP will try to blame the Democratic majority in the House. Tell is like it is:' individual House Republicans have been able to block passage twice - once last Friday and again on Tuesday - by demanding an official roll call vote. Any roll call vote would have to wait until the full House returns to work next week.' Putin Republican B.S. Pathetic...but...but...the VOTERS elected these jokers...every one of them. So be it , especially if they are re-elected. The President did all he could.
