Not sure what you are talking about. The House will lose Impeachment in the Senate, if they even dare to take this farce that far. And that will be followed by a sound repudiation of the House by the US Electorate as they return Trump for a second term.Trump administration orders ambassador not to appear at House impeachment probe deposition
Trump is a true cow boy! Calling out the cowards of the county!
God bless you trump! We stand with you!
And when the real Impeachment happens then the Rump Mob just starts the obstruction all over again. We've seen this before. AT what point does it stop. After they drag Rump from the White House will he still be screaming Executive Privilege? And will Pompeo still be trying to block things along with Barr? Nope, Pompeo and Barr will be screaming from the high heavens on what nasty things that bad old Rump tried to get them to do at that point. As they drag both of them off as well.
We traded the Deep for the Mob.
Trump tells House they can wipe their asses with their "subpoenas" because they haven't held a vote.
The president is correct that the Constitution gives the impeachment power to the House of Representatives. The power is not given to the speaker of the House or to a cabal of partisan committee chairmen. It belongs to the House as an institution.
The House acts as an institution by voting. On the matter of conducting an impeachment inquiry, the House has not voted.
This is a cold political calculation by Pelosi.
She knows Democratic control of the House hinges not on the AOC lefties, for whom impeachment is an easy vote; it hinges on about 41 Democrats who hold seats in districts Trump won in 2016. Impeachment is apt to be unpopular among those voters. Democrats who support it may imperil their re-election and party’s majority.
With Pelosi, it's ALL Politics,

Why is there need to call any type of special inquiry for the various committees' investigations into the president? They already have the subpoena power don't they? The recent Republican led House didn't need to vote on any special inquiry to be able to issue subpoenas to President Obama's administration did they?
After a couple of pages of throat-clearing about the purpored “impeachment inquiry,” the chairmen observe that, even without such an inquiry, the Oversight Committee has its own independent authority to conduct oversight investigations and issue subpoenas. In other words, information is actually being demanded under Congress’s routine authority to scrutinize executive activities. There would be nothing extraordinary about it . . . except that senior Democrats have decided to hang an “impeachment” sign on the exercise,\
Exactly, it's a stunt. They're marketing this as "impeachment" when it is nothing more than what they've been doing all along.
Vote on it if you have an actual case or just STFU.

Pretending these are not serious allegations of wrong doing and calling it a stunt doesn't abrogate their subpoena power. Democrats made the very same argument when the Republicans changed the rules to follow allegations of their own. They issued valid subpoenas and got nearly all of what they requested. What they didn't get they took to court to get.
If the allegation are substantiated it will lead to a vote on some Articles of Impeachment.

If the House doesn't like the way the WH responds to their subpoenas they are more than welcome to take them to court.
They will need to show the court the Legislative Purpose of the subpoena, if their case is not believable, they will lose.
Dirty Bob Mueller and his band of Witch Hunters did that and came up empty.

I'm not pretending these may not be serious allegations, but it is a stunt, IMO, or they would hold a vote.
This "we have to investigate to find out" approach is exactly what we heard all along on the Russian Collusion thing. Keep investigating, no real there, there, just keep attacking for political leverage. That horse died, so they needed a similar vehicle and now they've come up with this.
I think this is more of the same, based on their past actions as indicated. After 2 years of Russians! the onus is on them to prove otherwise this time around and I'd think they'd be happy to do it if they thought they had something by holding a simple vote. That they are not doing so makes me think they're just playing poltical games, ie, it's a stunt.
Fool me once and all that.....

To Impeach all they have to do is vote on the Articles. How they get there is entirely up to the Democrats. There is no reason to vote, it will not give their subpoena any more authority to compel documents and testimony than it already has.
Mueller was not working for the House nor did he report to the House. The Republican controlled the House and the Democrats have had no investigatory power as the minority. They have been in control for less than a year.
Sure, but there is no reason NOT to vote either.
"They don't want to vote" "they don't have to vote" isn't enough, not after watching the same thing play out with the Russian Collusion "Investigation". They did this with Mueller and they're doing the same thing again,
Why behind closed doors?That is exactly what I would have said.Trump administration orders ambassador not to appear at House impeachment probe deposition

God bless you trump! We stand with you!
They are getting all the "benefits" of impeachment inquiry without having to put their names on a vote.
Force their hands. Good strategy.

and yet more and more people are coming forward and being interviewed by the Dems...despite Trump's wishes

Wrong.... TO even begin impeachment anything the house must authorize it as a body... The Constitution is perfectly clear on this matter.."The House of Representatives SHALL.... have the sole power of impeachment." There is nothing ambiguous about it..Why is there need to call any type of special inquiry for the various committees' investigations into the president? They already have the subpoena power don't they? The recent Republican led House didn't need to vote on any special inquiry to be able to issue subpoenas to President Obama's administration did they?

The demand they hold a vote before they can interview anyone is the stunt.

The DOJ investigated the Russian's sweeping interference and collusion by Trumps campaign, not the GOP led house. The Dems have had control of the House less than a year. The Administration is stonewalling the House's investigation relating to the Mueller Report too.
