Speaker Nancy Pelosi on fallout over Pres. Trump's Ukraine call: 'We have many other, shall we say, candidates for impeachable offense in terms of the Constitution...but this one is the most understandable by the public.'

President Donald Trump on Tuesday promised to release an unredacted transcript of a phone call with Ukraine's president that has triggered a new Democratic push for impeachment, just hours before House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was scheduled to make a major announcement on the issue.....You will see it was a very friendly and totally appropriate call.

The developments came amid new revelations about Trump's call with Ukraine's president and new questions about whether he made aid to Ukraine contingent on its agreeing to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter. Democratic sources familiar with Pelosi’s deliberations tell ABC News one option under consideration is forming a select committee to handle impeachment and a potential investigation into the new national security whistleblower complaint over the Trump call. The select committee would be separate from the House Judiciary Committee inquiry into whether Trump committed obstruction if justice.

Pelosi will huddle this afternoon with her leadership team, the chairmen of six committees investigating the president and will hold a special caucus meeting to discuss impeachment. At the United Nations Tuesday, Trump insisted he had done nothing improper and called the new impeachment talk"ridiculous and a"witch hunt."

I don’t see RepGonzalez on the list........

Legendar Jesters

U need 2/3 of the Entire Congress 2 Impeach- Kiddies.

But the Democrars are a minority in the Senate?

Reason Democrats don't call off this idiotic witch hunt & simply vote in 2020? They're scared to death that realDonaldTrump is gaining ground. So they invent a scandal-a-day hoping something will stick. Impeachment will save them from the licking they face in 2020. Sedition

SpeakerPelosi GOPLeader RepAdamSchiff basically, when you’re not on a Congressional vacation, House Members are trying to impeach Trump. Do you think at some point you could actually work to help run this country?

Isnt that an oxymoron Intelligence and Schiff

ImpeachTrumpNow

Blower didn’t even hear the call, democrats aren’t satisfied with the actual transcript to be released tomorrow.

“And I will sit on it and do nothing because I am protecting the POTUS at all costs” I think was the rest of her quote, or what she was at least saying in her head

I’m calling for the impeachment of the entire TheDemocrats in congress for not working and attempting a coup...oh yea and for being as dumb as a box of ricks. 😂😂😂 FakeNewsMedia

The list has grown due to the oath taken on election night. To fight the Trump presidency every step of the way. Setting a dangerous precedent for the future of our country. Shameful

A gift to the GOP. Do Leftists not know that realDonaldTrump will outfox them again? When the truth is on his side & evidence of real criminals are in his hand, he (Actually, you, commies will self destruct) will destroy the Leftists. Give them more rope.

Let’s go...

Is there a list who doesn’t?

But it does not matter the senate holds all the power..

6 out of 13 from Florida. Make those calls, let's see which state get's 100% 1st! 202-224-3121.

Trump must be wetting his pants now

So why are the Dems showing their cards? 🙄

TheView All you people do is threaten threaten threaten all you people do is want to get him out the businessman who has done the most for decades and the previous administration did crap for us gun control healthcare yes they did but not much else

Pelosi cant stop failing

This idiot has zero control over the radical left wing in her party and is fumbling and stumbling her way to defeat in 2020.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Happy Impeachment Day!

Facts? Mueller had facts and still Nadler and Schiff go on. Fact whistler blower wasn’t even there to hear the conversation and Dems run to your PR dept in the main stream media and scream impeachment. Real Fact!!The left and media are unhinged bigoted liars with no platform

Facts. So I’ll be listening for words such as. Possibility. Could might

Tie her hands behind her back before questioning. That would be fun.

Its Truly Amazing most Dems have no idea the House and nancy CANT Impeach Trump by themselfs lol

Breaking news, most of Trump's political opponents still want to impeach Trump, maintaining the 2.5 year status quo.

This happens to every President who sits in office no matter what Party of they belong to. So the question is when are we the American people going to work together to demand our politicians do the same?

😂😂😂🤭🤫🤥

Notice how they didn’t say “and Republicans” This will fail without Republican support.

Time for Congress to be abolished. $175k each and they have done nothing

Now if only Republicans had a backbone to do the same....

The House Democrats can’t even all agree on impeaching the president what a joke let the president do his job and stop crying like babies

As soon as word got out the Whistlenlower is going directly to Congress, realDonaldTrump chickened out...the Whistleblower indicated 8 instances of Trump asking Ukrainian Pres to investigate Biden..we wait for the Whistleblowers testimony

Disgusting. E

Seriously, all the other offenses were understood by the public.

Honestly i think they will help Trump’s re-election by pursuing impeachment that everyone knows won’t pass senate. It’s just a fact.

And where's that going to get them when the Senate won't?

Go for it. This is all going to come back & bite Biden & the Trump hating Dems right in the ass.

notice that don't say impeachment 'for what'? there has to be a crime, you can't just impeach someone because you are a sore loser, there are 3 branches of gov't

I don't really care who investigates what. I care about the findings. If it takes another government to do it, then the issue shouldn't be 'why did they do it?' It should be 'why didn't we?'

Pretending they have some sort of scandal or misdemeanor. They've been doing it ever since the President was elected.

What’s wrong with this woman

.Non-stop Presidential harassment. Nothing more. Keep it up. You’re handing 2020 to the President. After his victory I hope he puts you all where you belong.

But you don't have the facts yet, this reeks of another trap and you're predictably falling right into it.

This is all gonna come back & bite the Dems right in the ass.

Nancy gonna have to cancel happy hour.

without police officers First Responders and Military what would you have? what really would have happened 9/11 think about it?🇺🇸

Pelosi Please help the homeless in California.

Climax. We're too far gone to turn back now.

Good!

What facts? The report and the transcript nobody has seen?

No not really SpeakerPelosi ...We have understood them all.

Took long enough. This should have happened... a long time ago.

Bring it. It’s about time!

I totally admire SpeakerPelosi

Translation: This is the Democrats best hope of winning anything in 2020. Without impeachment, no viable platform, and no positive message for Americans, dems are doomed to epic failure, and they know it.
