In addition to Pelosi, Schiff, Schumer.

The R's have demonized our leaders for decades.
So their lives are in danger.

Senator Grassley.

They are the next three in line behind Trump in the line of succession. Leaving Mike Pompeo (a devout Trump loyalist) the next person.

I would have called for it right after I certified Biden as President.
