Reply #12: He's Stepping On Wexler's Toes [View All]

[KharmaTrain]

Several points need to be made.

First...DK is not on the Judiciary Committee...the one that will bring articles of impeachment. His resolutions have been to prod the Judiciary committee to action...without them impeachment dies. In fact, that's where his resolutions have gone...to the Judiciary committee.

Second, the Committee has been conducting its own investigations and it's Congressman Wexler's resolution...that not only comes from a Judiciary committee member but also has other committee members as sponsors that deserves the attention here. Resolutions are fine and good, but they hold little real authority unless you have powerful sponsors...DK doesn't. Wexler is in a far better position to take the lead here and methinks there was a meeting of the minds within the Democratic caucus on going in this direction.
