For all intents and purposes the Impeachment Inquiry IS ongoing, but people who are against impeachment can always look to Pelosi to say she's not ready for impeachment. I hate to use that cliche, but it's like having your cake and eating it too. And when the time is right, when there is an offense by the president that everyone can understand (like perhaps Whistleblowergate) there will be unified mobilization. She is keeping her options open and studying the situation, like a cat watching a mouse but not yet ready to attack.
