What? MSNBC saying Pelosi said Nadler SHOULD HAVE held Lew in contempt??

Does that mean it's too late??

2. Yes! Fingers crossed. If you could see the hundreds

of posts on Twitter begging for it....

3. So hold him in contempt. Won't do a thing.

Republicans held AG Holder in contempt for not showing at a hearing. It accomplished nothing nothing.

The House of Representatives alone does not have the ability to punish.

This is all noise. 2020 is all that matters. We had better focus on that.

6. Sick of hearing that meme sorry. Peace

[GulfCoast66]

9. Yeah, well, I don't like it either. But the truth is often unpleasant.

You got a more realistic suggestion?

4. Trump's treason is much more concerning to me.

5. Well, it's too late for it to have any impact...

7. You mean he could have done it during hearing? Someone

here said no...he had to consult with congressional counsel first. But it's been 24 hours. Last night I read hundreds of replies to House Judiciary Twitter. They all said just DO IT or they will disown our party.

10. Well, then they don't understand contempt.

It has to be voted on. A chairperson can’t just declare it. Voted on by the entire house. And even then there is no penalty. Because the house can’t enact a penalty on its own.

Can’t arrest him, can’t fine him on their own.

It sucks. But facts are stubborn things.

The House of Representatives on its own has little to no power to enact penalties.

The republicans held AG Holder in contempt. You think for a minute had they had the power to jail or fine him they would not have?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

12. I didn't think that. But so be it..just do it anyway

Why is Nancy saying that then ?

[leftstreet]

8. Wait. We were told this couldn't be done

I'm so confused

[GulfCoast66]

11. It cannot be done. All this is just DU frustration taking it out on Democrats they see as moderate.

The house can’t on its own jail anyone or even fine them.

It just blaming Democrats for republican actions.

The republicans held Obama’s AG Holder in contempt. You think the would not have jailed or fined him if they could?

13. Excuse me. CNN had a Pelosi quote saying "they should

Have held him in contempt"
