FYI - Professor Tribe spent the weekend advising the Democrats on the articles of impeachment. A few months ago, he was a favorite source among those here trashing Pelosi and the Democrats for not moving fast enough on impeachment. Those same people might want to listen to what he's saying now ...

(21,402 posts)analyzing Tribe's quote. Dems are now united. Speaker Pelosi wouldn't move forward if there was dissention.
