If you really want impeachment to start now, here's my humble advice for helping to make that happen

108. Publicly or privately, have a strategy summit.

Count the votes. Assess the current range of opinions. Avoid all public marginalizing of those who support impeachment.

Signal to the public the sobriety of this moment. If impeachment really is on the table, clearly let the public know that despite the difficulty of this process, the gravity of the allegations call for the highest seriousness we can muster through our institutions.

Add clarity to the timeline of the current investigations in every press statement - what is hoped to be accomplished and when? Two months, two years, before 2020, after 2020 - is there any sense of this? Find some language to describe what is being done now and why the scope of the current investigations is sufficient to build on what Mueller has done and is a proportionate response to the gravity of these issues.

Reach out privately to House Republicans. Leverage a friendship or two and back channel these discussions.

Continue to gather perspectives and refine communication in advance of 2020!

Avoid further statements such as he's not worth it. Be specific about the allegations in all communication so that the news media has no choice but to reinforce the specifics about the crimes. The more determination shown, the more it becomes newsworthy and convincing to those in the middle.

Etc. - strategize and go! The stakes are too high to wait. Saturday we'll be at the state Democratic convention in WI. You can bet that we'll be strategizing here!! Mueller's appearance may be the last opening till the financial records release, and who knows when that will be. Take advantage of the current news cycle and push on!
