Will these latest mass shootings move more D Reps into supporting impeachment?

Will this be the straw that opens the floodgates?

If we don't impeach, the precedent will be set that no president is worthy of impeachment. What happens when someone who is as bad or worse than Trump comes along and is more charismatic than Trump? We're screwed.

You may not be able to be impeached for inciting violence but this mixed with the the law breaking, ignoring subpoenas and judges, So on......... I can't imagine a better time.

People are looking for a formal resolution of the House. It is unnecessary and won't happen. HR 430, conferred the full powers of Article 1 of the Constitution on the Judicial Committee. The have all the powers of an Impeachment Investigation, and are conducting one.

Cryptkeeper WLP bought a bunch of fancy duds on NRA member money. Since then, he's been purging board members. Let's see if WLP talks now. I don't think Republicans want him to if they know what's good for their political careers.
