Impeachment can't happen fast enough with Senate adjourned and McConnell foot dragging.

Pelosi should tell Pence (or have a high level Republican do so, better yet) that if he doesn't get rid of Trump his legacy will be letting traitors who tried to kill our elected leaders get off scott free and maybe return to finish the job.

If the DOJ doesn't want them pardoned, then they can limit information. Just my opinion

They all would be forced to testify without the ability to use the 5th, and if they lie they still go to jail, if they tell the truth about who all planned this more higher ups are exposed and go to jail.
