10. Here we go again with the MSM looking for a fight where there isn't one

First, the fact that a Chairman of the Judiciary Committee may be urging the Speaker to take an action that she doesn't yet think is timely, isn't a "clash," regardless how much the press wants to push its "Democrats in disarray narrative."

Second, The Democratic leadership team is an extraordinarily tight and non-leaky team. You can bet your last dollar that if Nadler is telling the press about his conversations with the Speaker, it's because the Speaker wants him to do it.

So, notwithstanding your instruction that the Speaker and Chairman "get on the same page," not only do they already know the need to be on the same page without being told, I suspect they're very much not only on the same page, but reading the same sentence.

Yes, good point. Eliot Rosewater May 2019 #1
