Trump Impeachment Vote to Open Intense Public Phase of Inquiry
https://news.yahoo.com/trump-impeachment-inquiry-vote-show-080000555.html
(Bloomberg) -- House Democrats hold a historic vote on Thursday to kick off the public phase of an inquiry of President Donald Trump that moves significantly closer to a vote to impeach him.
The vote, which is expected to break down mostly along party lines, doesn’t make his conviction and removal from office by the Senate any more likely. But the rare step to consider removing a president from office makes a process that has been bitter and partisan even more intense and fraught for all sides.
After weeks of testimony, Democrats and Republicans head into the Capitol firmly battened down for a fight over their views of the president: That his actions in office at least merit an investigation or that he’s done nothing wrong.House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who had been dismissing Republican demands that the full House vote to authorize an impeachment inquiry as unnecessary, shifted course and announced that the chamber would consider a resolution that sets the parameters and process for an investigation.
A major league farce.
