I have trying to convince myself that impeachment maybe not the way to go?

But after today's hearing with Barr! I am all in on impeachment of the whole White House and the GOP should go to jail for their obstruction of justice. We know if the shoe was on the Dems' foot, the GOP would have the fire burning already!

Tomorrow Democrats are going to hold a hearing and question an empty chair.
How many documents have been turned over?

I believe public hearings are the way to start the process. Then there are hearings about the voluminous financial records from Deutsche Bank. You don’t have to agree.

For a very long time. May get to see Mueller.
Financial records, maybe. Hearings are worthless if Republicans ignore and fight subpoenas.
Republicans subpoenaed documents from Obama from Fast and Furious, it took 3.5 years in the courts to get them.

What do you think would happen in an impeachment hearing that isn't happening in these hearings?

You heard Barr today, he is investigating the FBI and Democrats.
Oh and for those who want to wait to remove Trump at the ballot box, who says he is going to leave?

Advocate Impeachment?

He won't. He'll say it's not his place to recommend any course of action. He's a straight arrow - he'll take his brief seriously, even if the rest of the DOJ is corrupted.
