House Democrats are moving aggressively to wrap up their historic, weeks-long investigation into President Trump before 2020, potentially setting up a climactic vote to impeach him just before Christmas.

The timeline has come into sharper focus as Democrats have made a series of critical moves signaling they are shutting down the closed-door fact-finding phase of the inquiry and shifting now to Phase 2: making the case for impeachment to the American public.

Congressional investigators, led by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), appear to have wrapped up the last of 15 private depositions of current and former Trump administration officials. This week they began publishing thousands of pages of transcripts from those interviews.

And next week, Democrats will launch the first public, televised hearings of their nearly seven-week-long impeachment inquiry, calling three career foreign service officials who have already testified that Trump, his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani and their allies were seeking a brazen quid pro quo with Ukraine.

11. Ukraine just keeps giving

We got the trifecta of treason, bribery, high crimes and misdemeanors all with a bow.

[kimbutgar]

13. No I want it to go into 2020

Americans have short term memory, we need more public testimony to drive MF45 nuts.

[regnaD kciN]

14. Same...

The sooner it's over, the easier it will be for Repugs to acquit.

[crickets]

16. Same here.

This sounds to me more like media spin, pressuring Democrats to hurry up and get it over with. It takes as long as it takes. Once things get going, the testimony is going to pull at more threads beyond Ukraine. Rudy's shenanigans alone are going to open a big box of nasty.

Done by Christmas? I don't think so.

[Dave Starsky]

15. I wish it could be Christmas every day!
