Quote:The House won’t take a vote to formalize the impeachment inquiry into President Trump, Speaker Pelosi said Tuesday after huddling with her Democratic caucus.

“There’s no requirement that we have a vote,” Pelosi said at a press conference. “So, at this time, we will not be having a vote.”

Trump’s legal team has panned the ongoing impeachment hearings as “illegitimate” because Pelosi announced the inquiry by press conference on Sept. 24.

The House isn’t required to cast a vote, but did so to kick off the impeachment inquiries for President Nixon and President Clinton.

Trump’s legal team has said his administration won’t cooperate with the probe unless there’s a vote. Republicans say a vote would allow Trump to have a fairer process, with the ability to have subpoena power and call witnesses.

But the stonewalling strategy has shown cracks, with several witnesses showing up to the Capitol for closed-door interviews.

White House says it won't cooperate with 'unconstitutional' impeachment
Asked whether she should hold a vote to call Trump’s bluff, Pelosi said: “This is not a game for us.”

You chopped off the quote. It ends with:

"This is deadly serious."

Yes it most certainly is. It is deadly to the democrats if they take a vote.

Are our leftist friends here really so far up the anal cavity of the democrats not to see the absurdity of this kangaroo court? They are dancing in a mine field while Trump fires his single action at their feet....

No, no it's not. It's a comedy of errors, a theatrical farce and a second grade Shakesperian tragedy all rolled into one.

Those internals gotta be just brutal. Just brutal.

The question is- to impeeesh, or not to impeeesh?

No they think this is fine, but if the shoe were on the other foot would be sky screaming for days.. But what this does is sets a dangerous precedent and will boomerang back on them eventually.

So, not vote. Tells one everything one needs to know about the D's true intentions with the "impeachment" nonsense.

About what I’ve said all along...fabricated BS that they are going to drag feet on until it gets closer to the 2020 election to fire up their idiotic base for silly season.

1. They don't have the votes.
2. No vote and they can continue to hurt their enemies by making them hire attorneys etc.
3. Media keeps pushing negatives against Trump during an election cycle.
4. Media doesn't have to even mention the pitiful Dem candidates and what they are running on.
This is all an election strategy to push fence sitters against Trump. Only problem with this strategy is that it won't last until next November without the vote. They will have to come up with a bogus crisis.

Nancy walking that fine line and trying to shield Dem congressmen that are from purple districts.

Keeping the charade alive while not forcing any of her caucus to take a stand......

In other words - typical Washington politics.

a simple reminder designed specifically for you sir!

song of irony....

So does this mean Trump is on double secret probation.

Looks like the Dems are now shifting to the 25th Amendment vote out, as evidenced by the overreaction by the Dems in a White House meeting about Syria.
