be in charge there. We will have the speakership and the ability to take bills to the floor for voting; we will have the committee chairs and their subpoena power, their ability to hold hearings and conduct investigations into trump's dirty dealings.

We don't have any of that now. IMO we should concentrate on winning the House in Nov. and move on trump after that.

Mueller and the SDNY will be continuing their work also which has the potential to make the case for impeachment even stronger once we get the power back.

Where does hollaring about impeachment now get us when we can't deliver now? And if you watched that TYT video to about the eleven minute mark, Uygur is hawking a T-shirt he's selling lettered with a huge "IMPEACHMENT" on it.

Come on, folks. Let's not fall for the okey doke. We're already favored to take back the House. Let's be smart.
