Jerry Nadler just made a great point on MSNBC

[StarfishSaver]

He said that, far from opposing an impeachment inquiry, Speaker Pelosi has been very supportive.

And, as an example, he said that Friday's court filings requesting the grand jury materials were drafted and filed by House Counsel, which operates under the direction of the Speaker, and could not have been submitted without her express approval.

So much for the anonymous sources claiming that Nadler wants to move forward on impeachment but Pelosi won't let him.

1. Not exactly what I heard but Pelosi's support is crucial.

2. That's just what he said. What did you hear?

4. That's what I heard too.

It has the advantage of being true.

3. Consistent with what I saw and heard @ Dem leaders' presser.

SHE is maybe more into 'process' than many others, so wants to examine every bit of evidence, hence exhausting every avenue with subpoenas of uncooperative individuals.

THEN the House can go forward with a 'formal' inquiry, present EVIDENCE to the world, the best making it impossible for 'rational' repugs to vote 'no' and live with themselves.

There are many who have this irrational blind-rage against Nancy Pelosi that facts cease to matter. I appreciate posts like this.
