The dam has broken.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi officially launched impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump on Tuesday afternoon in one of the most consequential moments in the Trump presidency.
Happy…Happy…Happy!!!
Can I hear corks popping in TPM land???
This has the added joy of knowing that there are serious rumbles that Pence can be tarred with the same Ukrainian brush!!!
I just hope the rest of America comes around. TPM land is pretty insular.
The “bitch-slap” heard around the world… (just a colloquial expression, so please do not pounce) Happy days are here again!
It’s an odd mixture of being exciting and anticlimactic all at once.
Now THAT"S what I would call a good start! I think Nancy played this one right.
THANK YOU Speaker Pelosi. Now that you’ve made the move, give no quarter.
Actually, I am fine with that.
In reality, this is a sad day because its the final acknowledgement of what our country has come to. Very serious stuff. We should be careful about gloating around anyone who voted for donnie, no need to rub in it…or worse, make them go on the defensive anymore than they are already going to.
Amongst ourselves? Happy Days are here again!!!
It is a relief.
Finally.
Does this mean some of those many subpoenas will be enforced?
Its a Rubicon Moment for everyone.
Bring a rope from hell to hang him.
There is definitely some celebration going on in this house!
What kind of procedure does she envision? A new “select” committee for the purpose? What will happen to the committees whose subpoenas have been ignored. Whether she creates a new committee or creates some kind of coordination of the existing committees, she’ll need to ensure that the Chair(s) have sufficient discipline to leave questioning to attorneys and the capacity to prevent witnesses from behaving like mischievous eighth graders.
Nancy Pelosi is the very embodiment of patriotism.
Godspeed, Ms Speaker.
and the icing is that she dominated the airwaves as traitor trump was at the u.n. counting on all that positive coverage… lol
…and, boy, is he pissed…
Start the countdown to ruby slippers sticking out from under the corner of a White House.
The first page of a new chapter in the story, but by no means the end of the book. Necessary but not yet sufficient.
That’s not supposed to come across as a downer; it is one hell of a Tuesday and I’m going to go buy a bottle of nice pinot.
Glad we are finally here. tRump will really go ballistic now. He is so delusional he thinks he is the greatest POTUS ever. It will be interesting and probably horrifying how he deals with this announcement.
