Nadler says Judiciary to vote on articles of impeachment in a few months.

https://www.vox.com/2019/8/6/20751576/impeachment-inquiry-trump-nadler-democrats

"On Monday, House Judiciary Committee Chair Jerry Nadler (D-NY) still avoided characterizing his committee’s ongoing probe of Trump’s conduct as an impeachment inquiry. But he said on MSNBC that he thought his committee could vote on articles of impeachment in just a few short months (by “late fall, perhaps”)."

So what does this mean?

"Pelosi signed off on the language in the McGahn lawsuit that said that the committee was trying to decide whether to impeach Trump, according to an aide to the speaker."

"Earlier this week, Nadler laid out a timeline for impeachment, saying that his panel could move to impeach Trump by the end of the year — an ambitious timeline given the multiple court cases the committee is fighting. Democratic committee aides said Wednesday that they hoped to convince the court that the case was an "emergency" to expedite the court proceedings."

"McGahn's testimony is a key piece of that effort, Democrats say, because he was a key witness in the Mueller report -- especially its second section, about instances when the President may have attempted to obstruct the investigation. The special counsel's investigation documented how Trump told McGahn to fire the special counsel, which he did not do, and then told McGahn to lie publicly about Trump telling him to dismiss Mueller. McGahn's statements to Mueller's team were cited more than 150 times in the report -- more than any other witness."
