Pressure on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to drop her longstanding opposition to impeachment has reached new heights following reports that President Donald Trump asked Ukraines leader to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a move that appears to be at the heart of an urgent whistleblower complaint Trumps intelligence chief is refusing to turn over to Congress.
Progressive groups and members of Pelosis House Democratic caucus have aired their frustrations with the Speaker in public in since the new reports of Trumps latest potential crime, which adds to a mountainous list of transgressions that impeachment supporters say is more than enough to remove the president from office.
At this point, the bigger national scandal isnt the presidents lawbreaking behaviorit is the Democratic Partys refusal to impeach him for it, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) tweeted late Saturday. It is one thing for a sitting president to break the law. Its another to let him.
This just can't wait until November 2020. No way. We won't have democracy any longer.

(3,501 posts)2. Seems to me that Pelosi has set a Thursday deadline
To turn over the whistle-blower report. I would think failure to comply will be the green light for impeachment
