Make the case. As openly and publicly as possible.

By the end of that process, the American people will be well aware of the fact that Republicans have been obstructing justice and hiding criminal actions.

Litman and Tribe were just on MSNBC's "All In". BigmanPigman Jun 2019 #2
Tribe was on MSNBC just a few minutes ago. The way he explained his idea was not for the House napi21 Jun 2019 #3
It is more than censure though. It would be full investigational hearings resulting in "findings" hlthe2b Jun 2019 #6
Which will never happen FBaggins Jun 2019 #9
House Republicans are not in control. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #10
In this case, neither are House Democrats FBaggins Jun 2019 #13
In fact they can. If you know more than Laurence Tribe, Neal Katayal,, Norm Eisen, hlthe2b Jun 2019 #16

" doesn't fit nicely within any of Congress's Article I powers." FBaggins Jun 2019 #24
Article 1 powers. PERIOD. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #25
Such an odd argument FBaggins Jun 2019 #27
No. You are not worth my time. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #28
Contradicted by your compulsive need to reply FBaggins Jun 2019 #32
Hmmm FBaggins says they can't do it; Tribe says they can. Cuthbert Allgood Jun 2019 #17
LOL... Gee, ya think? hlthe2b Jun 2019 #22
No... Tribe doesn't say they can FBaggins Jun 2019 #23
He absolutely says they can. Cuthbert Allgood Jun 2019 #34
This path seems to frighten some here. nt Grasswire2 Jun 2019 #38
So, we'll be satisfied with just hurting his feelings? FiveGoodMen Jun 2019 #45
Do our Dem leaders in the House know this? Why haven't they mentioned this before? Honeycombe8 Jun 2019 #8
What would a "Sense of the House" mean to the general public? Martin Eden Jun 2019 #11
They complete the process they can decide then whether to refer articles of impeachment... hlthe2b Jun 2019 #12
A conclusion of guilt demands impeachment Martin Eden Jun 2019 #15
The opinion piece has been posted her numerous times. You need to read it hlthe2b Jun 2019 #18
This process would bring everything out, plus Cuthbert Allgood Jun 2019 #19
Wouldn't that be equally apparent if the House impeached and the Senate acquitted? onenote Jun 2019 #31

Which will simply allow the repubs to change the subject from the findings to the failure to follow onenote Jun 2019 #37
Agreed. onenote Jun 2019 #30

I can honestly think of nothing worse than the house making the case hughee99 Jun 2019 #36

If the house doesn't bring charges to the senate, hughee99 Jun 2019 #42
Yes. The House impeaches regardless of what the Senate does. Cuthbert Allgood Jun 2019 #43
That's not exactly what Tribe is recommending... hughee99 Jun 2019 #44
