The full Senate gets the news this week. Bu Bye Donnie. Rosenstein and Boente met with Senate Intel last week, so they already know Trump is indicted. The process is unfolding apace. Subpoenas were issued for Flynn associates by the Grand Jury indicting Trump, Manafort, Flynn, and others.

EXCLUSIVE: Sealed Indictment granted against Donald Trump

Given these circumstances and trump's own admissions, impeachment should follow in due order. Remember, it took 400 days to get rid of Nixon. This is moving very fast.
