Congresswoman Jackie Speier just said she thinks Speaker Pelosi is

'softening' on opening an impeachment inquiry, and the numbers (of members supporting such) is growing.

On The Last Word, MSNBC.

2. 95 voted for ACTUAL articles of impeachment

Jamie Raskin also said he thought there were over 100 supporting impeachment within the Dem caucus.

I think CNN's count is low.

3. The NY Times is lower...87 and this is updated for today.

I wonder what the real number is....

4. I believe Raskin who is actually IN the caucus

and knows who is supporting or indicating support for impeachment.

5. Yes..."go to the horses mouth" so to speak.

8. Interesting post, EllenG. Did you notice at the end, when Pelosi was on stage

with Nadler, Cummings and Schiff?

Nadler was clearly hard-line on impeachment and when he was speaking, I saw a smile playing on Pelosi's lips. She tried to hide it, but I saw. I think she'd like nothing better than to come at Trump with impeachment hearings and a vote, but first she wants to get the case stronger.

But that smile...it will be the same smile when Trump finally goes down.

And the rest of us?

When that beautiful day comes, when Trump goes down, gets taken away in cuffs, we will be DANCING IN THE STREETS.

9. Just now seeing end of their 'presser;' will look for it.

Thanks, PatrickforO.
