But hearing and reading it layer out is quite compelled. Then bring in other matters in the report, and I think Democrats have a good case even if GOPers protect trump in Senate.

I just hope they do it right. These hearings with 5 minute limits have just become a commercial for Congresspeople to further their political ambitions and name recognition. They need a better approach.

...allow impeachment to proceed...

...think about how bad we would feel if we tried impeachment and trump was re-elected...

...think about how much worse we would feel if trump was re-elected and we didn't try impeachment...

...think about it...

CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE:
DEMAND THEY BEGIN IMPEACHMENT HEARINGS NOW

Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report proves that Donald Trump obstructed justice and tried to influence trials.

This is one of 10 impeachable offenses Trump has committed. Mueller left the decision of obstruction up to Congress, so we need to make sure they move on impeachment to get the complete truth.

Call your representative now and demand they launch impeachment hearings immediately.

As soon as they have discussed the grave matter, they better get some paper and start drafting up Articles of Impeachment.
