Schiff explicitly said he’s not ruling out the possibility of more witnesses.

We are waiting on a court decision regarding McGahan on Monday. If the ruling is in our favor, I expect the floodgates to open.

I'm seeing reports of Lev Parnas turning over some evidence.
This would be more ammo for Schiff.

They were very, very excited about the new State Department documents. Ali Velshi was just about jumping out of his skin.

this is the link https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/22/us/politics/ukraine-russia-interference.html

Obviously Trump and Graham and Repub leaders in Congress are carrying water for the Russians spreading the Russian propaganda that has tried to change narrative to framing Ukraine for 2016 election interference

They are starting to draft their report but they are open to interviewing other witnesses, and now that the State Department documents have been turned over they will certainly follow up on Rudy's connections to Pompeo via Trump's personal secretary. Several House members who were interviewed said they aren't done yet.

The Dems are waiting for a judicial ruling ordering former WH Counsel Don McGahn to testify before Congress ..That ruling is expected Monday ...If the judges orders McGahn to do so , he will have to spill the beans on the numerous occasions Trump attempted to obstruct justice during the Mueller probe ….That hearing , presumably conducted by the House Judiciary Comm. , will be televised nationally as well ………

The inquiry isn't "finished" until they determine and present articles of impeachment for a vote -- or declare that the inquiry did not find conduct deemed impeachable.
