Listening to Nancy Pelosi's news conference.....


..... seems like the priority is going to be put on passing Biden's relief plan more than pressing forward with the impeachment trial.
Also she tapped Gen. Honore to review the security breakdown.

around the clock. Isn’t the trial in the hands of the Senate?

We have the senate and set the agenda. Schumer (I assume he’ll be majority leader) can prioritize correctly.

It would be interesting to be in the discussions where they figure out the strategy. The arguments would be fascinating and we’d probably learn a lot.

I’m not stressed at all about what they decide though.

down, complete with timelines, video and tweets going back to before the election. The stolon election false narrative is the key to this trial and then Trump's actions on Jan 6.

They do not deserve a vote on this, they caused it on purpose to overturn our government and install a permanent reich wing.
