Nancy Pelosi greeted by cries of ‘impeach’ at California Democratic convention


House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s call Saturday for a country blessed with unity was punctuated with cries of “Impeach!” from the crowd at the California Democratic Party’s convention in San Francisco, highlighting the rifts plaguing even her own party.

Speaking to an enthusiastic crowd at the Moscone Center, the San Francisco Democrat pledged to keep the heat on President Trump.

“We will go where the facts lead us. ... President Trump will be held accountable for his actions — in the Congress, in the courts and in the court of public opinion,” she said, while also promising, “We will strive to unify, not divide, our country as we protect and defend it.”

Pelosi has steadfastly insisted on sticking with House inquiries into the Trump administration on several fronts before launching any impeachment proceedings. She has left open the possibility of such proceedings, but has shown little enthusiasm for them.

4. Well bless their hearts.

Impeachment probably isn't going to happen before 2020, but it's not a bad idea to keep the pressure on the apprentice-in-chief, and Pelosi is good at doing that. That's the best way to make sure he won't there in 2020.

5. Good. Nancy is doing what she does best. She takes the heat while showing Dems aren't rushing to

impeachment (trying not to show bias) while the the public comes up to speed and demands it in greater numbers.
