"SNIP.....

“Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been quietly sounding out top allies and lawmakers about whether the time has come to impeach President Trump, according to multiple Democratic officials, a major development in the ongoing investigation of the president that suggests the House could eventually vote to oust him,” the Washington Post reports.

“Pelosi has asked colleagues whether they believe that Trump’s own admission that he pressured a Ukrainian leader to investigate a political foe is a tipping point. She was making calls as late as Monday night to gauge support in the caucus, and many leadership aides who once thought Trump’s impeachment was unlikely now say they think it’s almost inevitable.”

I don't think there a soul out there who, in their right mind, honestly thinks this was anything but extortion meant to pressure Ukraine into framing Biden.

But as you know, Republicans are already trying to get ahead of this one by claiming Biden did the same thing by getting Ukraine's general prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, fired in 2016 in exchange for military aid.

That's going to be a tough nut to crack - which is why the CIA IG report must come out STAT, or the Ghouliani spin will start to stick.

Enough ballots in MI, PA, and WI (and possibly elsewhere) were flipped to swing the electoral college to Traitor Tot - there's no doubt in my mind.
