#1 It's obviously a SS. Why not dismiss it outright? What's she going to do?

What makes Graham think that a majority of Americans would be opposed to dismissing it forthwith?

#2 Give them a deadline, say April lst.

#3 I think Pelosi's tighty-whities don't fit too well these days. Joe Biden's son has his problems. Paul Pelosi has similar problems. There is probably some reluctance to push too hard on impeachment.

#4 If she doesn't forward the 'charges' to the Senate by noontime Friday, the Senate should vote to dismiss those charges and be done with the dog and pony show.

#5 I dunno. Keeping the House occupied with their impeachment show makes them look like lunatics and keeps them from getting up to further mischief.

#6 Looks like the impeachment much like Pelosi herself is withering on the vine. And they were so proud of themselves too.

#7 I think #4 Raj has it. The issue is not impeachment any more. It is Pelosi and Co thinking that they hold a threat over the heads of Trump and the Republicans.

So the "defecate or decommode" is the correct response to these House Tantrumoids.

#8 She is trying to insure the Senate rule will protect Biden and her son, who were both on the Ukraine dole. If they do allow witnesses many other congress critters will get exposed right before election for defrauding America of millions of defense dollars. Literally stealing from our troops during war time. Making carpet baggers look honorable.

#9 I like what Besoeker said except I'd declare the deadline to be the week of the Democrat convention to ensure they have lots to talk about.

#10 #5 "Makes the Dems look like lunatics?"

Would you agree to "reveals them to be lunatics?"

#11 I think that Pelosi wants the two charge rag to rot and go away, while the rads and the village idiots in the house want to push this dung beetle ball somewhere towards the senate. Keep showing your knack for leadership Pelosi. You're doin' fine.
